Good morning, Fictioners!

I hope your morning has been filled with fantastical magic adventures, mushy love stories, and frightening tales of the macabre.

First, I want to welcome you to Flash Fiction Weekly and let you know what's going on behind the scenes. And then I will explain the beautifully creepy photo above.

We're still accepting submissions, so if you're interested in sharing  (aka exposure) your flash fiction please check out the submission guidelines. I do hope you'll consider submitting! With few exceptions, it doesn't matter what genre you write.

Along with your fiction submissions, you will see interesting photo prompts. These photos will be completely random, interesting, and hopefully inspiring.

The frequency of photo prompts will be determined by the number of fiction submissions received. There will be 2 -3 posts per week, where all or some could be photo prompts. So far, I haven't received any submissions, so if you want read some flash fiction, make sure you share this post with your writer friends!

Now, on with the show.

Prompt: 

What happens when you fall into the world of horror? Can you survive?

Write a 200-500 word short story using the photo above as inspiration. What has happened? What will happen?
