Vampires have been sprouting up in unusual places since the release of Stephenie Meyers Twilight Saga. I recently received a report as of yesterday by a girl only identified by her first name of Taylor that vampires are roaming the halls of Westwood Middle School in Gainesville.

Hunt for the Skinwalker I was gripped with fear at what I was watching in the headlights of the car. At first it seemed to be a un-clothed man shrouded in some sort of an animal hide. A violent storm was raging and the rain was falling in buckets as I concentrated focusing my eyes in on the figure not ten feet in front of the car. There was a flash of light and what followed can only be described as 20 minutes of pure terror that left both myself and my vehicle in shambles, we both were a total wreak. There have been countless stories about … [Read More...]

About the cold ones who were different from the rest of their kind, who came to Quileute lands in hopes of forging a new life. The Quileutes didn't take that very well, and a treaty was made - albeit against the Quileutes' better judgment. The cold ones were our pack's entire reason for transforming, after all. … [Read More...]
