Tales from the Cryptic Lemmy

Welcome to this pulp horror writing space, where I'm bringing back the gritty, wild days of pulpy horror and bizarre storytelling!

This is the place for short, sharp stories that grip you with suspense, creep you out, and keep you scrolling down. Please try to keep the word count under 4,000 words.

Whether it's creatures from the shadows, twisted revenge, or strange, unexplainable horrors, this is your home for bite-sized, fast-paced fiction.

Embrace the weird, the terrifying, and the utterly bizarre—just like the good old days.

While reading through all the hate I’ve gotten after my temp ban from a big community, I stumbled across something unexpected.

In the middle of people celebrating and calling me a troll, one comment caught my eye. I won’t name him, but he hates me, so it’s kind of awesome. He said about me: “They should stick to writing mildly interesting short horror stories.”

This guy hates me, but he found my stories mildly interesting! As a “crap writer,” every little compliment counts.

So yeah, fuck it, I’m printing that out and hanging it in my office.
