The Vault-Keeper (host)

In "Voodoo Vengeance!", a man named Caleb stumbles into an antique shop seeking a gift for his wife, Sally, only to be drawn to a disturbing voodoo doll crafted in her likeness. After a tense confrontation fueled by jealousy and betrayal, Sally hurls the doll in rage—only for it to shatter against the fireplace, its fragments swallowed by the flames. The Vault-Keeper watches, silent and knowing, as the moment hangs in the air, leaving the aftermath shrouded in dread.

Werewolf
7 pp · Horror-Suspense

In the shadowed peaks of Transylvania, a mountain-climbing expedition takes a terrifying turn when the guide, Jan Bodzla, grows suspicious of Viktor Zorak—whispering warnings that Zorak may be a werewolf. As the full moon rises, the group’s fear turns to horror when Zorak’s eyes glow red and a gruesome murder shatters their fragile calm. With one of their own torn apart and a monstrous beast stalking the camp, the survivors scramble for safety—only to face a final, chilling revelation that may be more than they can survive.

Rats Have Sharp Teeth!
6 pp · Horror-Suspense

In "Rats Have Sharp Teeth!", Abner, the town’s self-proclaimed expert on everyone’s past, digs up a corpse for its buried jewels—only to be confronted by a rat, the one creature he fears above all. Determined to avoid detection, he uncovers Revolutionary War tunnels beneath the graveyard and plans to loot coffins unseen. But as he ventures deeper, the tunnels swarm with rats, and when he finds Marcus Lee’s moneybelt, he realizes they’ve taken it. Fueled by obsession, he builds a wire barrier to keep them out—until they find a way through, gnawing through his defenses and triggering a deadly collapse.

The Strange Couple!
7 pp · Horror-Suspense
The Vault-Keeper (host)

In "The Strange Couple!", a man stranded on a stormy night takes refuge at a remote house after his car stalls, only to be greeted by a pair of unsettling hosts who claim their spouses are monsters. As the night unfolds, each insists the other is the true ghoul—her husband a vampire, his wife a cannibal—leaving him trapped between terror and doubt. When he wakes in his car, convinced it was all a dream, he finds himself drawn back to the same house, where the door opens to reveal the very same couple he thought he’d left behind.
