Phantasm Carnival Novels & Stories

"Oh sorry. Um..this is Melinda, the daughter of Caroline Lantonio" "Oh, we didn't know. Nice to meet you." Kim said stretching her hand for a handshake and I rolled my eyes...so forward! "Nice to meet you guys too.." She shook hands with each of us and I forced a smile at her. For some reason, all these were starting to bore me. "About the carnival, I want it to be much more better than the ones that have been happening. I want a spark of uniqueness that would catch people's eyes and even increase the revenue of the island."

And we haven’t even hit the main strip yet. The crowd’s thick, chaotic. Music’s blaring from every direction—Eurotrash remixes, kids screaming, teenagers dry-humping on the tilt-a-whirl. And Dante’s beside me, sniffing the air, which he might just be trying to find which part of this place he wants to murder first. I clutch my phone tighter, my thumb swiping over the screen one more time. ‘I need you to plant actors at the carnival. People Dante will believe. Old neighbors, fake friends, I don’t care. Anyone who can say they knew us as a couple. I need him convinced. Please.’

Declan's mouth watered as his eyes smiled at the food on the food cart. I don't know how the fuck he could be hungry with the whole place smelling like inside a rotting corpse. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up when I heard the carnival anthem playing. "Step right up! Step right up! Zombies and ghouls, banshees and golems!" A fat clown announced as his crooked lips fester into a frightening frown. We paused as he continued. "Step right up and try something new! That's right folks, we're tasting new things today." It pointed at us. I jumped to the side, making sure his nasty finger was pointing directly at Declan.

I gave her a small smile. " I saw Mofe walking out, is all good?" I nod. "She went to the bathroom". "Okay, then, I'll be back soon". I nod and out my airpods on, my phone dinged. I clicked on the album by Joeboy that Tochi shared with me on Spotify. The beat flooded my ears making me a sudden saccharine rush. I felt a sudden relieve something i haven't felt in totality since that night after socials but that was soon gone when from the wall facing me emerged Lola's ghost. Everything around her was a blur, she was the only clear thing in sight. She had let her high bun out in a fro. Do ghosts change their looks?

Shrugging my shoulder, I just followed it as my guide, and after a few walks and ducking under the twigs of the dead trees, a tall gothic house appeared through the thick mist. "Now that's a witch lair," I commented, gulping at its eerie look. Well, what more could I expect from a centuries-old family of witches? According to the entry I had read from our library, the Laveau was one of the highest henchmen of the Phantom Pack before the War of the Triad along with the Voss, a family of vampires.

Cassandra giggled, "You know, that may not be such a bad idea." (•) The car pulled up in front of a long wooden planked boardwalk that ran for miles alongside a white sandy beach. There was a carnival at the end of the boardwalk with tons of rides, the kind with the sparkly, flashing lights, and loud music. There were rows of cheesy games with giant stuffed animals that you weren't supposed to be able to win. Stepping out of the truck, Cassandra could smell the salty ocean air mixed with the wafting aroma of popcorn, and cotton candy.

(Danica) The carnival didn’t slow down, and neither did the suffocating feeling of being watched. After the carousel, the crowd migrated toward the far edge of the quad where the Viking Ride—a massive, swinging pirate ship—loomed over the festivities. Painted in fierce gold and maroon, it rocked back and forth, casting massive, sweeping shadows over the roaring spectators below.

The blade gleamed, sharpened to a fine edge. "You really think I'd fall for the same trap twice?" Before he could react, I slashed the blade across my own arm. Blood welled up instantly, and I smeared it over my clothes and skin. Right on cue, the door burst open. "Mr. Morland, please don't hurt Carmen! She's just... lonely, that's why she's meeting a man in a place like this—" Hazel's plea died in her throat as she saw me, standing there, and covered in blood.

He even sat with Angel just to tease Cody! As he was running, he was paying no attention to his surroundings. When out of the unexpected, a car drove instantly fast his way. He froze in his place, staring at it with wide eyes. He had no idea what to do. He was staring at the person inside the car. He knew well who that person was. **** Carmen was humming her favorite song as she was cleaning the kitchen’s counter. “Je vois la vie en ros-“ She was cut off by the loud ringing of her phone. She huffed and washed her hands.
