Snow Day Gothic

  • Class is cancelled because of snow. Or so they say.
  • You’ve lived this day before.
  • Your peers post the announcement of the cancellation on their social media. On the surface it is a celebration, when deep down you know it is a warning.
  • There’s a knock on the door. No one’s there when you open it, and no footprints in the snow.
  • You don’t drive. The ones who skid off the road are never seen again.
  • The snowmen seem to appear out of nowhere. You haven’t seen anybody outside to build them. They move when you aren’t looking.
  • The neighborhood children sled down the hill. Only some of them come back up.
  • You hear the shoveling of snow, but none of it has been cleared.
  • The fireplace crackles. You don’t remember turning it on.
  • You tell your friends that you love snowdays. “They’re cozy” you say, “I like watching the snow fall while I’m warm in the house”. You’re really just too afraid of what is waiting for you outside.
  • You hear a car slip on the ice on the road behind your house. You know they will be feasted on.
  • This snow is just like every other, so why was class cancelled today?
  • What’s out there? You’re tempted to find out.
  • There’s a snowman in your yard. Who built it? You couldn’t have. You decide to stay inside.
  • The weather is the same the next day, but class is in session. They must have left.

-quick note-

Hello! I’m surprised about how many followers we’ve gotten in the past week or so since we started this blog. There are two of us running this and tbh it’s been real fun so far!

We’re gonna start tagging our stuff so you know who wrote what, and mine’s gonna be cuz I think it’s funny.

I also wrote the Home Alone, Abandoned Churches, Night Driving, and High School gothics.
