Prologue to: CANDY APPLES ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON

When white and black Americans get together, it is a great thing!
Most of us get along just fine, thank you very much!
But when men and women,

Add themselves to the mix...
Hell can open up and horror can emerge!
Can't we all just have some... Candy Apples On A Saturday Afternoon?

RLJ




CANDY APPLES ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON

(Washington, D.C.)


Way out here in the hinterlands of logic and good taste, humans long for the days of old!
Oh, so old is two years ago... when the leader of the free world was a black man not being a corrupt fool!
And on the eve of a horror Saturday when white supremacists will set camp in Washington, DC...
Let good taste and logic bend reality toward cotton candy and candy apples, instead of blood riots spurred on by Nazi symbols!

THE PLIGHT OF A LATCHKEY CHILD

(Oak Park, Illinois)


Last night, I heard a bone chilling scream come from inside the vacant house next door!
If mom were here, instead of NYC on another business trip, I would get her to call the cops!
But, I'm only a 14 year old kid still cowering in my bedroom corner writing my fear down in my diary!
I would call the cops myself, but I'm more afraid of a possible murder next door than ornery cops showing up at my door on a Saturday night!

He thought it was even funnier when, on my 21st birthday, he brought the shrunken head to my birthday party and told it to speak to me... and it did!...

I found a solution, after 6 decades, BLOODSICLES... I get to suck cold sweet blood, murder less people and relive some perverted moments from my childhood humanity, long lost!

DEAR READERS, A FEW WORD OF EXPLANATION


DEAR READERS, 
A FEW WORD OF EXPLANATION:

ABOUT "THE FOURTH LINE OF HORROR" BLOG






I, 
Ronald L. Jones, 
Am an avid consumer of horror fiction. 
I like my horror in comic book form,
In regular traditional written formats and on the movie/TV screen. 
Also, 
I am driven to write horror fiction... in many formats!


This particular long running horror format is called... The Fourth Line Of Horror!
Keep in mind that I have MANY horror blogs!
But concerning this blog...
I have recently received several bits of feedback expressing confusion with this horror format.
In a few more words,
This is the way to read... The Fourth Line Of Horror!
What you see when you first read my work is a prologue to the main horror story!
At the end of that prologue is a note asking you to click on the story title.
You will then be transported to the actual Fourth Line Of Horror blog site.
There you will find the actual four line horror tale.
It is as simple as that.


In this format,
I sometimes take credit for a tale... with the initials RLJ.
Often times,
You will find different initials at the end of various stories.
Those are the initials of a fictional person writing this particular tale.
Many of these tales are written by the fictional subject of the horror tale.
Simple stuff... right?


Always keep in mind that I am my own editor.
I am not a perfect word processor with a built in copy editor!
I do my best to give you proper syntax, grammar and spelling.


Usually,
I post one story a day.
I am currently working on about 20 projects at the same time.
Therefore, 
I am a little sporadic in my posting right now.
But I will soon be back on track to post every day again.


So,
I hope I am giving some type of horror thrill to anyone taking the time to read my work.
I have many more stories to tell...
And tell them,
I will!
Take care and... don't be confused by what I write.
What you see is what you get.
Horror writing is a stretching of your imagination.
Go ahead and stretch it...

THE HUNGRY ONES DOWN IN THE DARK BASEMENT


Right there in the heart of The Bronx, NYC is horror rarely known!
Who in their right mind treks across the river Styx to an island so scary?
Not many a person goes there, but that doesn't make Brother Island vanish!
And the dark residents from dark times past who still reside in the dark places?
There is so much food on the other sides of the river... when will it come back?
Because the are... The Hungry Ones Down In the Dark Basement!

This place is old, cold and full of dark secrets... the kinds that chased away many of its frightened residents!
And down in the pitch black basement of 21, monstrous things lay in wait for the resident's eventual return.
They have been hungry for human flesh for decades... and even the police know not to enter this house... but, one day someone will come... and then...!

Life and death was at stake with his decision.

HEAVEN BOUND

(Seattle, Washington)


Satan appeared before me last night, as I lay in my bed weeping and praying for the life of my dying wife!
Of course, God didn't answer my prayers... but, Satan did, all smiles and sneers, and wanting my soul!
Satan declared that it would trade her soul for mine... and, according to it, what is her life worth to me?
I declined that tempting offer, because... Satan was intimating that Mary's soul was already its to possess... obviously a fat lie from the "King Of Lies"... I'm convinced my beautiful wife is heaven bound!

A HOARD OF THEM  (AN EXCERPT)

(Winchester, Virginia)


...With rifle in right hand, Scott Scandrick stood tall, and exposed, on top of the roof of the abandoned house.
With left hand holding the corner of the chimney for balance, he surveyed the scene before him.
He was now high enough to look over the trees... and there they come, over there, through the rifle scope, a hoard of them.
He could see their blood smeared teeth and faces... with fresh blood... soon to be his blood if he and his 6 bullets didn't get the hell out of there!...

GOODBYE, GHOSTS IN THE WIND

Fear is not emotion in her body.
She shows her absence of fear as she stands there...
Before her bedroom window, waving as she days...
Goodbye, Ghosts In The Wind!

GOODBYE, GHOSTS IN THE WIND

Samantha Loews isn't afraid of the noisy ghosts in the wind shaking the window panes of her bedroom!
This time if the year, as the oncoming Springtime drives them away, they engage in a final bit of mischief!
All winter long, they battered her window with snow and ice and rain... and she still refused to feel fear!
She defiantly looks the beings in their eyes and waves them goodbye as the wind gusts break them apart... until next winter, when she will be an even more defiant 8 year old!

HERE IS WHAT I THINK ABOUT DEATH

HERE IS WHAT I THINK ABOUT DEATH

(Patterson, New Jersey)


My aging process has taken me here to this time of contemplation about my fading life!
I look into my mirror and I see an old man who I recognize less and less every day!

And either way, if there is light or if there is darkness after death... well, the horror of slowly getting there is killing me faster than the aging!

I've killed so many humans and I've drank so many gallons of their blood... and I'm so tired!
My feral days are so long gone... I'm clear of mind and self-control now... and I'm no longer afraid of the sun... the soul cleansing of the burning rays... I have to die!

CRUNCH


Children of the forest need to be a tough!
There are all kinds of dangers out there in those dark woods.
One little girl couldn't wait for her chance to test her innocent mettle!
She got that chance and the final result ended in one sickening sound... CRUNCH!

CRUNCH

(Black Forest, Germany)


Gilda The Evil Witch Of The Woods was most fond of frying and eating the fingers and toes of her victims!
She was also a changeling who would use her ability to lure hunters and children into her death traps!
The hunters always fell for chasing deer and the children always blindly chased after fluffy white rabbits!
Young Hanna, fearless and strong and unafraid, fell for the rabbit trick... and she was now mad as hell as she sat in the trap... and as soon as that old witch returned.... CRUNCH!

THE EVIL THE SPIRITS MAKE MEN DO


When a man drinks the spirits,
Sometimes the spirits consume the man!
Take a look at these long time drinking buddies to find...
The Evil The Spirits Make Men Do!

THE EVIL THE SPIRITS MAKE MEN DO

(Rio Rancho, New Mexico)


Another Mezcal bottle was almost empty in Jack Mae's shaky right hand... the ugly worm was next, again!
He foolishly thought he could drink himself to death by draining the hard biting liquid contents of another bottle!
He did not die this night, his internal constitution is far stronger than he knew... stronger than Danny's!
Oh, Danny... lying there at Jack's blood stained feet... steak knife jammed deep inside his heart... he dead and growing cold... Jack Mae forever trying to remember why he murdered him!

ON HER SIDE TONIGHT


In the  Horrorwalker World, bad things can happen to people!
The world is harsh and brutal and too bad if you cannot survive there.
But, sometimes fate and luck can provide a good outcome.
Lucky for Susanne Jones, fate and luck are on her side tonight!

ON HER SIDE TONIGHT

(Columbus, Ohio)


Young Daniel, all 3 year old of him, climbed up and over the bed rails and walked out of the front door!
Who knows what the little boy is thinking as he walks outside into the midnight bitter winter cold!
Mom, in a dead sleep, her name is Susanne, heard the door slam shut and was suddenly... awake!
Shear horror choked her soul she she flung back her covers and ran, barefoot, into her son's room... finding him gone... and sprinting out of her front door... looking left... dumbfounded to find her shivering son building a snowman!

STAY AWAY FROM THE WINDOWS


Winter winds blow when bitter cold is on the move.
Strange and frightful things can move along that cold wind.
If you don't see cold monsters, can they get you?
You might never find out if you... Stay Away From The Windows!

RLJ





STAY AWAY FROM THE WINDOWS

(Massanutten)


The snow outside is as free as a bird as the winter storm blow the flakes against my bedroom window!
It sounds like hard grains of sand throwing themselves against the cold window, trying to get inside!
Occasionally, something larger and ominous thumps against the window and I don't want to know what it is!
Sometimes, when the winter is angry and the wind is blowing, it is better to let things pass by with the wind... and to stay away from the windows!

BLESSED VISCERA


Tonight is a good night for creatures like Allan Marks!
He is mostly human most of the time until he is... not human!
And when he is not human, he is searching for something to kill!
Under the full moon,
As Midnight approaches,
He seeks the sweet taste of... Blessed Viscera!

RLJ





BLESSED VISCERA

(Conway, Arkansas)


It's now late in the night and the Witching Hour is slowly tick tocking toward me!
This night is brightened by a high full moon that is calling out to all the were-creatures out there!
I've already been claimed by tonight's version of the full moon... and, I am now all fur and teeth!
And my hunger is burning my belly... and I know that I must kill soon... because viscera never tastes better than when blessed by... The Witching Hour!

THE HOMICIDAL DEAD (24)


The dead walk the earth as homicidal cannibals who eat the living!
The living have mostly been murdered and consumed.
I, Jason Allen Cranston, am alive.
My mission in life,
Before I am eventually cornered and bitten,
Is to find somebody else alive... anybody!

Hello Journal, I'm back to writing in your awaiting pages!
This past year has been a very hectic time!
I chased three leads,
From Richmond to Petersburg...
And back to Richmond...
 Hoping to find another person alive!
No luck, but I have some awesome tales to tell!
But today, in this first posting in a long while, it is all about this cold weather!

THE HOMICIDAL DEAD (24)

(Richmond, Virginia)


Holy Shit, it's fucking cold outside in this Arctic chill blasting Virginia this early in the winter!
Although I hate going out there and getting to work in the deep freeze, the cold makes my work easy!
The zombies freeze to the point of being an immobile statue of rotting flesh, posing in mid-step!
And it is now when I take my metal baseball bat and smash their skills like frozen melons... decreasing their infinite numbers... enough for  me to get some peace when spring returns!

CONSEQUENCES (AN EXCERPT)


They say New Year's Day is the day to make resolutions for the year to come!
That New Year's day is the day to reflect on your past mistakes!
That New Year's Day is the day to change your life for the better!
And if you don't make some choices, 
There will be... Consequences!

CONSEQUENCES  (AN EXCERPT)

(Herndon, Virginia)


"Well America, the first day of this year of 2018 is coming to a hellaciously bitter cold end here in this city!
A fever dream 2017 full of political shit and horror has changed the world of which I've spent 50 decades in!
I, too, have changed... into a creature I don't recognize... into a monster forged by evil liars in this horror world!
In one year I've witnessed the devastating real world consequences of one man's evil political decisions... and, the horror it creates is like hell itself transferred to the earth's surface!"
