Effervescent
The pills came in a small bottle. “Effervescent” was the only word on the label, printed in letters so small Carla had to squint. Her husband had brought them home that evening.

The Words on the Gate

The writers behind this newsletter.
I’m Sacha (Fraggy for my friends) and I’m based in Switzerland. I write literary horror with my first novel slowly taking shape alongside it. I especially like to write emotionally precise poetry, whimsical dark fiction and literary retellings.
Hi! Welcome to my hall of mirrors - come right in. My name is Alicia and I'm a storyteller. My style is one part Twilight Zone, one part Brothers Grimm, one part X-Files and 100% from the heart. I hope you see something you like.
Just a writer doing her best. Mostly, I tell stories (creepy-crawly stories, funny fantasy stories, whatever I'm in the mood to write), but I might post other stuff here too.
Author, editor and essayist, with a background in international journalism. I write about history, belief, memory and human behaviour... particularly the things that become stranger the closer we look.
Enter Watson's House of Horrors. Daily drabbles, flash fiction, horror comics, urban legends, and nightmares delivered directly to your inbox.
Aspiring wordsmith… for now. I mean someday the idea is to drop the aspiring part.
