Some call it the Witching Hour, that deathly creep time, after midnight, between 3 and 4 a.m. when the world holds its breath. Some say it’s when spiritual energy peaks, a mockery of the holy trinity at 3:33 a.m., making it ripe for unholy rituals and ghostly visitations.

This Mother’s Day, we honor the incredible strength and love of the mothers who shape our lives for the better. Those of us lucky enough to have them, or other nurturing parental figures, are truly blessed. But remember, not all maternal bonds are pure. What you think is love may be something darker, something that lingers long after the last breath. Proceed with caution, for not all mothers are what they appear, some don’t live up to the title, if they’re even living at all.

Sometimes, what’s familiar to us isn’t what it seems. A loved one sings a song they’ve never known, their laugh rings fake, their touch feels... wrong. Doppelgangers, changelings, these are names we give to people, the things that slip into our lives unnoticed, wearing borrowed faces. We tell ourselves it’s just in our heads. But sometimes we know deep in our gut, the person beside us isn’t the person we know, and they’re definitely someone we cannot trust.   First, some visitors never leave Followed by it wears her smile Finally in our last story, it’s already inside Story 1: The Exchange - Inspired by Caitlin K Story 2: Three Sisters - Inspired by Tiffani Story 3: Don’t Blink - Written by Sara Learn more about your ad choices.

For those of us who have siblings, it often means that we have someone to lean on, and a built-in best friend to go on adventures with us. But that's assuming we like one another.

May is mental health awareness month. and we are grateful the world is more and more embracing how important taking care of our mental health is. Everyone has those days where they feel off, not themselves, or depressed. Sometimes people might even hear voices, and for those things it can be important to seek help.

Sometimes beauty is just a mask that’s painted on. Polished, and perfected to hide the horrors beneath. A swipe of lipstick, a pop of nail polish, all the small things that are meant to make us feel seen and powerful. But is beauty isn’t just for us?

Beneath the surface of passion and devotion can lie obsession, jealousy, and desire,forces that can twist affection into something far more cruel.

We've all experienced being somewhere and getting that pit in our stomach that tells us "I shouldn't be here". And we should trust our gut. Some places are filled with negative energy, dark vibes, or even worse, pure evil.

We have all, at one time or another, heard something that wasn’t there, or felt the presence of something that couldn’t be seen. We often brush it off as nothing, but that’s just ignoring the truth. There are things that can't be explained by the ordinary senses, like shadows that move when no one is there, whispers that echo in empty rooms, and cold spots that linger in a warm space. Those with a gift, or perhaps a curse, see beyond the veil of the world we know, perceiving the unseen forces that linger just out of reach, the forces that are powered by the dead.  First, Shadows call you home.

We are all born into this world, live our lives, and then die. It's something everyone of us will experience. Although we shouldn't fear death, fearing the dead is a different story.
