(10) Wake-Up Call

Source

(A horror story in 50 words.)

Bloody Mary…

Giggles disrupt my slumber.

Bloody Mary…

Will these idiot children never let me rest?

Bloody Mary…

I’ve no more taste for blood. Nor flesh.

Bloody Mary…

Don’t say it again, they whisper. I agree. Don’t say it.

Bloody Mary.

Five times they have called me. I must rise.

(Hi, everyone. I committed to doing The Writing Cooperative’s 52-Week Writing Challenge, and my choice is a 50-word horror story every week. This is going to be … challenging, even if I give myself a little leeway on the exact word count. If you enjoyed this, I’ve written longer stuff too.)
