A Death for a Death
10 pp · Horror-Suspense
Dr. Ansel Jarrat, a naturalist, works at the Natural History Museum. Dr. Jarrat never cared that he put many insects through incredible pain by pulling them apart and dissecting them without chloroform for the museum's exhibits. After all they were only insects. But now the insects will have their revenge. Every night Dr. Jarrat finds himself turning into an insect. A caterpillar one night, a cockroach the next. Will Dr. Jarrat find a way out of this curse or will he die the death of an insect, like so many he has killed?

In "A Death for a Death," Dr. Ansel Jarrat, a naturalist at the Natural History Museum, faces a chilling reckoning for his years of dissecting insects without mercy. Now, each night he awakens transformed—first a caterpillar, then a cockroach—forced to experience the suffering he once inflicted. As the curse deepens, he must find a way to break free before he dies as one of the very creatures he once dismissed.

The Stage Is Set for Murder
10 pp · Horror-Suspense

As the past rises from the wreckage of his triumph, the spotlight turns deadly—where every curtain call could be his last.
