SPOOKTOBER 2024!
Spooktober is a 31 day event of coming up with original horror ideas based on prompts my writing group voted on. Carrying forward from last year we’re having optional sub-themes and I’m trying to do them all like Debbie do Dallas. Book covers made with midjourney and photopea.
SPOOKTOBER DAY #22 — CRYPTID
(× Spoopy/Pumpkincore or Slime or Metamorphosis)
TITLE: Check Out My Drip
PREMISE: Lilibel is into the goth version of Tiger Beat magazine (Pumpkincore), but her favorite hot boy was last seen on a desert highway where somebody picked up him up while hitchhiking and they drove him home to a haunted house (Spoopy) but then they called to ask where he was and found out he died seven years ago or something idk (Cryptid). Well, she did a baby witch ritual to summon him from the magazine pages, and he appeared! Not ideal, actually.
HORROR ELEMENT: Stavros Lugosi III emerges from a giant jack-o-lantern like it was an egg, bringing ectoplasm (Slime) like a trailing yolk that can cover the world. If Lilibel doesn’t wanna get turned into a slime (Metamorphosis) like whatever Drake was talking about in that one song, she’ll have to undo the evil that she done.
