What makes for good science fiction horror is how close, but not quite, it is to reality. Handmaids Tale is the genre I'm thinking of. Here's one:

The world has seen the rise of a charismatic, almost messianic, set of right wing leaders whose followers have a religious fervor and a curious ability to tune out reality that doesn't fit what their leaders tell them. All of these leaders seem like puppets of *something*, but no one knows what. People who are immune to the cult's siren song, or are "undesirables" have started disappearing or turning up dead in gruesome ways. Our intrepid, frightened heroes have to figure out how to break the spell before they get dead.

To real? Or a great thriller?

Shattered Citadel is a universe developed by a guy I game with.

Starting in the near future, the story arc posits a WW3, The Great Human Civil War, from 2025-2077. Then, after that war ends, mankind fresh from it and the Succession Wars must confront a new alien threat.

There are both short and medium length stories, videos, and even fan fiction.

Triggered by this.

Ages ago, I had a dream sequence, and part of it related to "pulling wings off of fairies".

The war had gone on for ages now. No one remembered the start, or why, anymore. The trees, the vines, the land itself were all chosing sides. ( Read more... )
