Shakespeare And Skull Novels & Stories

In order to figure out how the mechanism of this skull worked, he cut a small wound and dripped a drop of blood on it. The cracks in the skull emitted a faint red light, and it was extremely clear that it was absorbing the dripping blood. Soon, the blood disappeared without a trace. "This thing is really a little scary. No wonder those believers are so convinced." Samuel sighed. If he were not an atheist, he would have been fooled by this kind of situation. However, he firmly believed that there were no ghosts or gods in the world, so the skull was just a prop in his eyes. He just could not find out how its mechanism worked for the time being.

He stared intently at the bed through rose-tinted spectacles. "Give him up Protelia," she said softly. A mournful moan filled the room. Motions started up in the bed as it began to slowly expand and contract. An aperture opened in the side of the mattress and the bed gave a loud sigh as it excreted a jumble of human bones onto the black carpet. The fat man picked up a skull covered with patches of sticky black ichor. He stared thoughtfully into the empty eye sockets. A hand pushed out from the bed and, for a brief moment, reached longingly for the skull, before melting back into the glossy black mattress.

Strange objects were scattered across its surface. A brass astrolabe, dull but still detailed. A collection of oddly shaped crystals that caught the flashlight beams in strange ways, reflecting light that didn’t feel natural. And then— A human skull. It sat quietly among the objects, its hollow eye sockets staring straight into the darkness… as if it was watching them. “Whoa…” Marco whispered, his voice low, caught between amazement and fear. “Your grandfather was into some… really weird stuff.” Ben swallowed hard but said nothing.

Finally, they managed to kick the door down. I switched on my flashlight and shone it into the room. "Don't come in here! Don't come in here!" There was a woman hiding inside. She was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, dressed in my silver long-sleeved pajamas. She had a fruit knife in her hand, which she pointed at us. I gave her a look, smiling coldly. Then, I peered into the garbage can outside the door. There were tissues covered in semen inside! It turned out that Zane was hiding a woman in the house and getting busy with her here!

If only I'd known what that meant, I would have known who this man was. The Skull King. A man more cruel and ruthless than my own husband.

I kneel, my wet cloak spreading out behind me, and tentatively reach for it when I notice what’s lying beside it… and behind it. The helmet is only a few feet away. Bones of pure white lie scattered between the diadem and helmet. More than one person rests here eternally. Finger bones reach for each other, the digits in exactly the same position they were when the owners of the skulls died here, their hands intertwined. My heart caves in, sinking like a dead weight against my ribs, refusing to beat. I think of the mask, of how I figured the broken prong was that way because of a devastating, absolutely catastrophic blow to the face. It would have been deadly.

It was at this moment that Professor Barland chose to enter the fray, opening the door and nearly tripping headlong over the boy as he reached for a final penny tucking itself under the ottoman. "What the devil- Mylo, good heavens is that you? I nearly broke a leg, young man, away with you!" Spluttered the professor as the boy righted himself, clutching to the mantelpiece and coming face to face with an old skull, its empty sockets gazing balefully through him. "Is that a human skull, Mr Skweyiya? Can I have a look?" "No! Out, boy- out!"

The more dangerous the better, and if they could recover something special, he’d be the first to plan the trip. “Oh yes, the crystal skulls. Yes, that would have been nice if they’d been real. You have to admit, mine makes a great bookend. Fine, I will resist saying yes to him. However, you must admit that was an excellent adventure.” The skull in question sat at the far end of the library on a shelf, holding up several books. Nothing odd there, not in a house full of witches where people left cinnamon on all the entrances and bells decorated everywhere. They found pieces of bones in various corners, discreetly tucked away. Even the greenhouse in the back garden held far more than it should

But not a human skull; nor that of animal creature known to most of man. No, because this skull, is decorated with a pair of horns, curved ever so slightly. The only time Brandon has ever seen a pair of horns of such shape, on any creature, is- Perseus lets out a low noise, then, something wounded and devastated and shattered, at the same time the realization comes to Brandon: -a dragon. There is no sound in the world, quite like that of a dragon’s heartbreak.

The skulls were arranged in rows. It was exactly like her dream. "Come on, are you scared of these skulls?' Piper laughed at her as she notice her flinch. "Come on! There is nothing to be scared of" Piper walked to one of the skulls and started laughing. "Piper! What are you doing?" Willow's eyes bulged. "Showing you that these are just decorations!" She laughed and picked one of the skulls and kissed it. *.*. TBC
