Afternoon On A Hill

In a distant future where humanity thrives in the far reaches of space, the Skeld II, a colossal research and exploration vessel, serves as a beacon of hope and progress. Manned by a diverse crew of scientists, engineers, and military personnel, the ship’s mission is to push the boundaries of human knowledge. But beneath its polished exterior lies a creeping darkness—a sinister force that threatens not only the Skeld but the fragile fabric of human civilization. When a series of gruesome murders shatters the ship’s tranquility, rookie crew member Jean finds himself thrust into a nightmare of betrayal and fear. As paranoia spreads, Captain Max must rally his dwindling team against an unseen foe. Meanwhile, Kenneth, a trusted officer, descends into madness, invoking ancient powers and summoning the Dark One, a malevolent entity from a forgotten age. As alliances crumble and the body count rises, the survivors must confront the truth: the parasite that plagues them isn’t just physical—it’s spiritual, tearing apart their minds and sowing distrust. Their mission becomes clear: unite or perish. But in the face of overwhelming darkness, sacrifice becomes inevitable, and each character must wrestle with their own humanity. Hell on Earth is a gripping tale of survival, betrayal, and redemption, blending visceral horror with intense action. In a universe where shadows linger and light feels scarce, the Skeld’s crew must fight not only for their lives but for their souls. For on this ship, even the stars can’t save you from what lurks in the void.

Welcome to Harrow Hill, a small, isolated town where the sun rarely shines, and shadows linger long after twilight. For decades, the townsfolk have whispered about the ancient curse that haunts their streets, a sinister force that awakens every fifty years to claim new victims. When investigative journalist Rachel Bennett arrives in Harrow Hill, she’s determined to uncover the truth behind the mysterious disappearances and macabre legends that plague the town. Armed with her notebook and relentless curiosity, she delves into the town's dark history, unearthing secrets that have been buried for generations.

Each holds a piece of the puzzle, but with every answer, Rachel finds herself drawn closer to the malevolent force lurking in the darkness. With the clock ticking and the body count rising, Rachel must confront the malevolence head-on. But Harrow Hill has a way of twisting reality, and soon Rachel can’t distinguish between her own fears and the town’s horrifying truths.

In "Shadows of Harrow Hill," every corner hides a nightmare, every whisper conceals a threat, and every shadow has a story to tell. Prepare yourself for a chilling journey into a world where the line between the living and the dead is dangerously thin.
