The Curse of the Full Moon A novelette by T.M. Garuba
CHAPTER ONE
The silence of midnight was crushing, which was rather odd for a house close to a forest, especially a forest said to teem with wildlife. Obalola wished it was not so quiet. He had always loved the quiet life, but this quietness felt like it was more than he bargained for. As he turned on his side and squeezed his eyes shut, willing himself to fall asleep, he heard a blood-curdling howl.
“Help!” the voice yowled over and over again, at close intervals, sometimes sounding nearby, at other times, sounding distant, but nonetheless chilling.
Obalola instantaneously sat up in bed and listened hard. It was a woman’s voice. The horror in the voice was palpable, so palpable he was so sure he could grasp it. He waited to hear it again, but the voice would not be heard again. |

My horror novelette is coming to Selar in 2 days.
It is the story of Obalola who is a newcomer to the strange town of Lapite where the full moon is not a cheerful sight, but a dreadful curse!
I will be dropping excerpts from the story as the countdown nears December 13th when the book becomes available on Selar.
Enjoy!

freedomchild: Why do we like to copy rubbish things just to trend? Why would he embarrass his girlfriend in public with stupid marriage proposal? I believe he never discussed this with his girlfriend in privacy. Marriage is not a child's play and should be well thought out and agreed by both parties. The girl was even begging him to stop so they can talk about it in private but the idiot was busy disgracing himself. I like how the girl drenched him with water because he's an idiot. I'm a man but I hate non sense. private nonsense |

Seniorwriter: @OP the use of the past tense 'planned' should be corrected.
This present incompetent Buhari administration should be more concerned about making positive changes rather than still making the livelihood of the citizens worse off!
We need to vote in young visionary leaders come 2023!
@Seniorwriter You are wrong. Planned in the statement is an adjective, not a verb. |

fertilewomb: I have noticed this on two occasions. She is actually a sweet child and heavily misunderstood. She is fighting a lot of demons. I actually see her as a troubled child and most of the things she does is just a way of making herself happy in other to curb out depression which she easily falls into.
Nobody in that house understands her, cos nobody has gone through what she has at her young age. One minute she is happy, the next minute she is crying. Nobody understands her except Arin.
She and Arin has a strong deep rooted connection, maybe because people tends to judge their outlook appearance most times without cutting them some slack (Arin with the numerous piercing, and Angel with the indecent dressing/ vibes).
Angel is not an Olosho, no matter what people say about her, she is not. but have tend outward appearances |
