Mould

by B.P. Gregory

My best friend was in Pompeii. And like everybody else on that fateful day she never left, leaving me orbiting helplessly within horror, reincarnation and the persistence of memory.

As seen on creepypasta.com in 2014, this mournful little horror is the most obscure of a suite of short science fiction, urban fantasy and horror stories by BP Gregory, each its own maelstrom of human suffering and longing.

Mould can be enjoyed alone or as part of Orotund: Collected Short Stories Volume Two, which is also available in print.

32 pages, Kindle Edition

First published January 1, 2013

This wasn't scary. The writing was very confusing and I was left wondering what I had just read. What was the story? The plot? The point?
