Full Moon By Black Ghosts Novels & Stories

The forest whispered like it knew a secret. Mist slid low over the roots of the black pines, and the moon fat and red as a wound hung unnaturally close to the earth. Lyra Graythorn stood at the edge of the clearing, her breath clouding in the cold, her heartbeat the loudest thing in her ears. She had seen many full moons before, but never one like this. Her grandmother’s words echoed in her mind: The Blood Moon doesn’t just light the sky, child. It marks. It claims.

Everything exploded. When the smoke cleared, Clint was gone. John and Callen stood in the rubble. Sarah lay motionless eyes closed, crown fragments floating above her as tendrils of gold‑red light wrapped around her body. The Forgotten stood silent at the edge of the clearing witnesses. They raised their voices in unison: “The first true heir rises.” John’s world fractured. The sky burned red. Above Black Hollow, the blood moon loomed heavier than ever before. Its light wasn’t soft anymore; it cut through the trees like a blade, painting the woods in a violent crimson hue, the town had fallen silent, even the wind dared not move.

Just as Jane had said, the full moon was going to come quicker, and probably stay for a longer time; long enough for the evil Tenebris to do as he wishes. I stayed in the same sport, whispering the same four words to myself, over and over again. “Scarlett, please stay alive…” I kept saying, over and over and over again, until the skies went completely dark. The light everywhere went out, and everything was pitch black. There was no source of light in the world again, and I just knew that there was trouble.

Under the full moon, I let him go and freed myself too. From this moment, our paths would part completely, and we would owe each other nothing.

The moon was bright and full in the night sky, its silvery light shining down upon the forest. But this was no ordinary moon. It was the Blood Moon, a rare and powerful celestial event that only occurred once every hundred years. And as its light bathed the forest, it brought with it a curse, a curse that would change everything for Alpha Wade and the pack.

“You don’t change until the first full moon after your 17th birthday. However some of us will start to have some minor changes before. Better hearing, better eyesight, better sense of smell, craving meat more, wanting to be outdoors all the time. Things like that. The first time you turn it is very painful. You have no control over it and it will happen faster if you are directly in the moon light, but it will happen even if it is cloudy. It just takes longer.” Amaris took a moment to absorb all this. Then it dawned on her. “Tonight is the full moon!” Amaris burst out standing up. Anna came over to put her arm around Amaris’ shoulders and sat her down once more. “Now you know why I have been

He turns on his heel and disappears into the trees, Cassandra following him with a last disparaging look over her shoulder. No good deed goes unpunished, I guess. “Are you all right?” I ask, biting the inside of my lip. I know it’s a ridiculous question, but I’ve been holding back from asking it all evening, and by now I can’t resist any longer. Atlas heaves a sigh, leaning back and craning his neck to look up at the night sky. Overhead, the moon is full, lighting the whole world up with an eerie glow. We’ve made camp in a clearing about half a mile away from the rest of the Blood Moon Pack; it’s as close as we can comfortably get without bringing on more of their wrath. I wasn’t exactly exp

The sky above was a swirling vortex of Darkness and light, and the ground beneath my feet was a soft, yielding substance that seemed to absorb my every step. I felt dread as I realized I was alone, adrift in this surreal landscape. I circled, searching for any sign of life, but nothing happened again. The only sound was the gentle rustling of the wind through the invisible grasses. As I stood there, a cold shiver ran down my spine. I knew I was not alone. A dark and menacing presence lurked in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Today was the first day of the Full Moon's cycle at full power as it was night time, and I had to hold out from contacting the Darkness, yet it wa

THE END. He made it 50 meters. Then the sky went black. The Black Moon was in the sky. Not full. But big. Too big. The red beam became a black beam. And everything went silent. `[RITUAL: 95% -> 100%]` `[RITUAL COMPLETE]` The machine exploded. The shockwave threw Ethan and Selena. The last thing Ethan saw was the black Moon. Then nothing. --- _1 YEAR LATER. 2027. AUGUST._

The lunar eclipse began at 11:47 p.m., a slow black bite taken out of the full moon visible through the high windows of the mansion. The secret society had gathered only once a year for this exact window of darkness, the invitations handwritten and burned after reading. No phones. No names. The sprawling estate had been prepared in advance—furniture pushed against the walls, carpets rolled back, every surface made available. By the time the moon was half-covered the main hall was already a shifting sea of naked bodies.
