Dear Readers, Do you love mysteries, eerie tales, and a touch of the inexplicable? Are you fascinated by stories that blur the line between reality and legend? Then I invite you to visit my entry in this weeks contest and dive into my latest short story, “The Blood Moon That Became Legend.”Set in the quiet town of Milford, Oregon, this story unravels a haunting chain of events that began with a blood moon, a 911 call, and strange lights in the woods. What followed were footprints too large to be human, a mutilated cow, and a town spiraling into fear and speculation. Is it all an elaborate prank, or is something far more sinister at play?I’d love to hear your thoughts! Drop by my site, read the story, and share your comments.

The blood moon awaits you.

The goal was to tell a story in the form of a police report, news article, or journal entry about an incredible (or impossible) event.

When the blood moon rises over the quiet town of Milford, Oregon, the line between prank and peril blurs. A teenager’s terrified 911 call sparks a cascade of strange events: eerie lights, bone-chilling screams, massive clawed footprints, and a mutilated cow. What begins as a suspected hoax unravels into a mystery that shakes the town to its core. With rumors of cryptids, unexplained disappearances, and sinister motives swirling, young Jamie Carter takes it upon herself to uncover the truth. But as the blood moon’s glow fades, Milford faces a chilling question: what if the legend is real?

Dark, suspenseful, and laced with cosmic unease, The Blood Moon That Became Legend will leave you questioning what lurks in the shadows—and whether some mysteries are better left unsolved.
