1000Vultures

[Z]

This is genuinely the best series of short stories I've read online, had me enthralled! Six parts, they're an easy read and are genuinely terrifying because they don't try to be - it's well written and I can't give it enough praise. Written by a user called 1000Vultures, hence the topic title!

Part 1 - "Footsteps": http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/k8ktr/footsteps/
Part 2 - "Balloons": http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/kcl8q/balloons/
Part 3 - "Boxes": http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/kg0jf/boxes/
Part 4 - "Maps": http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/kl1cd/maps/
Part 5 - "Screens": http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/krdm0/screens/
Part 6 - "Friends": http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/kyshm/friends/

From what I gather, it won some kinda prize on this "nosleep" board for the writing, I got linked to it by my best friend earlier today and just thought I'd share it with TiBB! It follows the fictional (I hope...) account of a boy whose childhood memories are revealed over the six parts, I don't want to give anything more away, would just recommend reading it... I've no idea if anyone will bother because it seems like nobody ever cares when it comes to off site links but oh well.

Any takers? No? Shame on you all. -scuttles back into the cavern of only posting on occasion and plucking up the courage to create a new thread again in about 8 months' time-

Just read the first one, it's a good read especially as I'm home alone near a woods and have trouble sleeping here.

[Z]

Keep reading or you'll just be petrified and won't have any feeling of resolution! I started crying at one point in part 6, not ashamed to admit it!

[Iceman]

im having a smoke then will do part 2.

[Iceman]

Part 2 was good, interesting little things you pick up on like he says 'I was always good at spelling my name'

[Lewis.]

Will definitely read in a minute! Just finishing watching 10 years younger at the moment but will read it in bed alone. :shocked:

[Lewis.]

Woah. Very striking first part indeed, I'm literally stuck on this sofa now in the dark on my own and very scared. Will go up to bed before I read more, it's safer :laugh:

[Iceman]

-wants to kill greg-

[Iceman]

starting part 4 now.

[Z]

It's just so brilliant and terrifying and addictive aaaggghhhh I love it!

[Lewis.]

Part 2 was so good. It's times like these I am so glad I share a room with my brother and the dog though so I have something to blame all of the little sounds on :laugh:

I'm on my own overthinking every little noise:bawling:

[Lewis.]

Just read part 3 and it's starting to click now. I really badly need a wee but these covers aren't coming up from over me until it's at least light outside.

[Iceman]

starting part 5 now....for the love of god i dont know why LOL

[Lewis.]

Starting 5 now too... Can't stop myself! Have college tomorrow but got a free first so get a little bit if a lie in!

[Iceman]

Final part. EEKKKKKKKKK

[Iceman]

I just read the end :( shed a tear for part 6 aswell :(

[Jords]

Read the first 2 parts so far, really good and eerie! :o

[Jords]

Part 3 :o :o

[Jords]

Im actually a bit scared :S :S

[MTVN]

Read the first 3 so far, Christ it's creepy :o

[Vicky.]

Just finished these..was well confused until most of it clicked somewhere in part 3 :laugh:

Part 6 though :sad:

[MTVN]

Yeah I've just finished too, was actually really scary although there's still stuff in there that I don't really get or doesn't make much real sense. It also looks like he's meant to only be about 5 years old in half of them yet seems way older

[Lewis.]

Very strange but captivating end.

I'm glad a few of you bothered! I really enjoyed them, I'm glad you all seem to have too! :)
