Happy Halloween (if a little early)! Welcome to Halloween Vault 2 on ! We hope your October is going spookily. We celebrate dark fantasy stories - those that weave fantasy with a little horror, or horror with a little fantasy. Halloween is just perfect for our dark(ish) hearts.
This year our prompt is all about family fun...
*
Many families have a favourite holiday during the year: Christmas, Thanksgiving, Diwali, Hanukkah, Eid al-Fitr. Your family's festival of choice is Halloween where they have a family gathering to celebrate in style. Spin us a Dark Fantasy story all about this year's exciting gathering and what goes on. Here are some ideas to inspire:
► Meeting the Family - you and your partner have been together for a while now and it's getting serious, it's time for them to meet the family. How do they take it? What's the big family secret? Are your motives as innocent as they seem? Give us a tale with a touch of horror and fantastical themes.
► Gate Crashers - your family's Halloween celebrations are going really well, until they are crashed by hunters. Why are the hunters invading your party? Who is likely to win? Does this happen often? Mix horror with fantasy and give us a Dark Fantasy story.
► Celebrations - Halloween was also known as All Hallows Eve. Celts believed that the boundary between the world of the living and the dead became blurred. They celebrated Samhain when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth. Tell us the real dark side of Halloween and the rituals to scare away the spirits!
► Author's Choice - Of course, if you have another, twisted added extra about the family celebrations you'd like to use that mixes horror with a side of fantasy, do tell!

The Defective Hermit
Vincent Standish had faced a lot of disappointments during the last five years. But things were finally starting to look up for him and in a big way too. While working the late shift at his second part time job, as a cashier in a gas station, on a whim he bought a lottery ticket which had a jackpot that had grown extremely large. Three days later he was astonished to find that he was one of three lottery winners. With that money he was able to retire, when he had been afraid that he would be forced work until the day that he died, or worse yet living in a cardboard box if he lost his two paltry paying jobs. Vincent soon found forty acres of land and quickly had his simple and robust dream home constructed. Disappointed in people, it was his avowed goal to be a hermit and shun the world. Too bad for his dreams that only a year after winning the lottery, all of humanity started seeing colored text messages before their very eyes, messages that warned of dire things to come.

Vengeance in a Broken World
The world was at peace for a long stretch of time. There were no wars. Poverty rates were going down and the abundance of food was spreading from country to country. There were no problems at all. The world was finally at peace. The war to end all wars really did end all wars. That's how it was until the world changed. Monsters poured out from nowhere, almost spawning out of mid air. The humans were not out of luck though! What most recognized as a RPG level up screen was given to each and every human, young and old. Using its power, humanity tries to etch out a spot for themselves inside of the shattered world. Mercy, our protagonist, is one of these humans. Will she survive through the end of the world? --------------- Disclaimer: I am a new author, so there might be some mistakes. If you see any, especially with grammar, please point them out! Content Disclaimer: I am really going to try to earn the traumatizing content and gore disclaimers. This story is not for the faint of heart and definitely not for non adults.

Summoning Shenanigans
Adding in [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Sean was a chemist on Earth with a lovely family life. Everything was going well, until a group of gods decide to summon him to their world. An unfortunate appearance by the trickster god derailed a normal summoning, and now Sean finds himself in a pickle. Content warning: There will be profanity and quite probably some gore, though the point of the story will not revovle around any gory scenes. I'm also including traumatising content as there will for sure be slavery and rape. The rape will be alluded to and not described, there are other places for that. I think this also explains the grimdark tag.
