Comments on: Halfmoon https://www.creepypastastories.com/halfmoon/ Welcome to CreepypastaStories.com! Scaring you with paranormal stories and original horror fiction. A “creepypasta” is a short piece of horror fiction.

The story’s structure is expertly constructed, weaving together multiple twists that consistently surprise without feeling contrived or excessive.
One of the story’s strengths lies in its grounding in real-world geography and actual events. By anchoring the supernatural elements to recognizable locations and historical references, Sebastian creates unsettling plausibility that elevates the horror beyond mere shock value. The result feels frighteningly possible, drawing readers deeper into the narrative’s dark embrace.
The premise itself is strong and original, providing a solid foundation for the terror that unfolds. Sebastian’s prose style is accessible, earthy, and engaging, with a narrative flow that moves us forward through each revelation. The writing never stumbles over itself or loses momentum, a crucial quality where pacing can make or break the tension.
I especially appreciate the story’s artistic ambition. Sebastian approaches horror not merely as an exercise in fear, but as a vehicle for thoughtful storytelling. The construction and execution reveal careful attention to craft, resulting in a work that comes across both as entertainment and as literature.
While horror may not be my personal genre of choice, I recognize quality when I encounter it. This is a solidly written, well-executed story that fulfills its genre obligations while going beyond them. It was a pleasure to read, and Sebastian should be commended for this accomplished work.

My Aunt Nannie’s son Gerry (my cousin) was a medical doctor.

Gerry had finished his medical school classes and was working his “medical residency” requirements at the hospital. One night they brought a man into the Emergency Room. The man had gone out into his garage, put his head under a drill press, and drilled six holes into his head. The man died.
