The Twisted Tale Archives
Classic gothic tales in the tradition of Frankenstein and The Mummy. Candlelight, old houses, and things that should not have been made. Atmosphere and dread, never gore.
The Homunculus That Lived
From the Twisted Tale Archives.
Something was made in a jar, and it did not stay there. A slow, creeping tale about the thing that should never have drawn breath, and the house that kept it.
Meet Orin, a homunculus who is a little scary to look at. Clean enough to share: no gore and no bad language. For readers 12 and up.
