Description

    This is artwork for encounter #14 of the encounter short stories for my horror series Blackhaven Institution which is written below. The day Blackhaven Institution a house for orphaned children and unwanted infants burned to the ground mysteriously, the souls of those trapped inside became corrupted by an unknown evil that warped them into demons that now dwell in an alternate Blackhaven Institution. There they await those who are dragged into this alternate world by an unknown evil. From encounter #13 onwards will take place during a brief period of severe corruption...The nightmare is taken to the next level of severity, the situation becomes even more chaotic thus affecting the environment and demons as the corruption becomes unstable. Instead of one and a sudden influx of victims from concentrated areas become trapped in this nightmare all at once! This encounter with the demon “The Very Hungry Inch Worm" takes place in the "Orphan Wing" as follows:

    Awakening in a woozy state and gagging on stagnant air Sheila stumbles onto her feet... Oddly enough the drunken state Sheila was once in seemed to have faded away, she begins to look around the new and unsettling environment. Around her a dank and severely dim lit room which seems absent of color, dark vieny textures pulsing on the wall, malformed furniture and objects scattered about resembling those maybe found in a child's room. A chaotic ambiance echoes from all around varying at different and sporadic frequencies making Sheila anxious and scared. Her thoughts are a little fuzzy but the last thing she remembers is going to the holiday party at the frat house near Dracove City University with her dorm mate Hannah. Also she remembers a few of the moments before she started hitting the hard liquor. Including a run in with a nice but stalker type guy named Donald, who she seems to run into a lot more than usual after they briefly met at a previous party. She doesn't spend much time dwelling in her thoughts as there are to many incomprehensible questions about her current situation. She snaps back into her horrifying reality noticing something on one of the malformed beds. On the bed she finds a filthy book, wiping off some of the dark crud covering it she reads the title “The Very Hungry Inch Worm” she recognizes this as a popular children's book title from the recent past her parents once showed her when she was young . Flipping through the book most of the pages are unreadable or destroyed. Frustrated she chucks the book as she is more worried about her current situation than an old book. Out of nowhere the book melts into the floor and vanishes which freaks Sheila out. She then notices a door out of this room and nervously approaches it. Slowly turning the knob and cracking open the door Sheila peeks out but swiftly hesitates and closes the door, fearful of this unknown world. Her mind races with horrifying thoughts as she retreats into a corner of the room behind some malformed furniture. There she huddles and shivers, mumbling her thoughts out loud as she is afraid...

    There is no sense of time in this world as what feels like a lengthy sum of time passes,Sheila frantically attempts multiple times to use her phone but with no luck. During what must be her twentieth attempt, the door suddenly flings open as a figure rushes in. Sheila freaks out and starts screaming until the figure rushes up to her and its hand covers her mouth. Sheila notices it to be Donald who whispers in her ear to please stop screaming. Sheila who is beyond startled, pretty angry, yet kind of glad pushes Donald off, soon enough they share a brief talk. Donald seems overwhelm with joy to have found her and tries to explain to her that he has no clue about what is happening here. Sheila asks him about Hannah but Donald explains that he hasn't seen anyone. He explains in a sort of nervous voice that she is the first human he has seen here, his tone worries her. Sheila is confused by what he means when he says the first human...He insures her that it is not safe here which brings her worries into fruition. After some convincing he gets Sheila to get up and venture into the hallway. When the door closes behind them , in the corner where Sheila huddled a dark stain began to form in the wall with the impression of a miserable pulsating face, arms reach out of the stain as something sinister starts to emerge but then suddenly retreat... Donald holds on tight to Sheila's hand as they jog down what seems like a large endless corridor riddled in corruption. The walls at times appear as if they are festering with a swarm of tiny black bugs. Also when passing by certain rooms they believe to hear horrid noises, some even sound human coming from inside them. By room 407 Sheila is stopped by an invisible presence that seems to drag her against her will into it. Donald stops, noticing Sheila's panic and in quick reaction time he wraps his arms around Sheila and manages to pull her out of the invisible grasp. After the ordeal they stop in a nearby room that is seemingly safe for the moment as the two stop and rest for a bit. Donald explains to Sheila that something horrible is pursuing him. His brief and unclear description of it terrifies Sheila to her core. Donald spontaneously hugs Sheila to comfort her as he assures her that he will not let anything happen to her. Then Donald asks if Sheila has seen any monsters, she nods no but tells him about the incident with the book. Realizing something Donald tells Sheila that he found the same book but when he picked it up visions began to flash in front of him. Visions of two children he had never met...But before he has time to explain he feels a familiar dark and utterly dreadful presence...

    In the corner of his eye he notices a dark stain had appeared in the corner of the room with freakish arms beginning to emerge from it, the terrible feeling of dread rattles through his guts as it emits a gut-wrenching array of fleshy sounds. He grabs Sheila's hand as they rush out of the room back into the hallway as they frantically venture forward. They turn their heads back and forth constantly as they move forward in fear of what is pursuing them. Suddenly they both come to a complete sudden stop, both of their eyes stretch wide open and jaws drop, trembling before whatever they are witnessing as it has struck a cord of fear... On the right side of the wall blocking a door rests one end of a large and long creature. Neither of them can believe or comprehend the terrifying monster before them as they glare at its visible features. The dreadful presence lingers from close behind as they have to make a dire decision and quickly. The monster in front of them though completely fucked and visually horrifying in nature, appears to be immobile and still,the eyes on it's hardly humanoid face are closed and its seemingly unaware of them. So it comes down to either trying to sneak past this monster or turn back and face the horrifying mystery monster which even a brief and unclear description of was utterly horrifying to the core. Choosing to sneak past the large monster Donald urges Sheila to go first. Sheila at first hesitates, beginning to tear and whimper with shaky knees, her nerves are in a complete wreck. With a spontaneous and completely uncalled for kiss from Donald, Sheila feels an odd sense of assurance. Filled with this strange new-found assurance she musters the courage to sneak forward past the monster, trying hard to resist the urge to look at it. It fails...She looks to the side, her hearts beats at an unstably fast rate as she notices a grotesque face bulging from the door beneath the monster and some sort of fleshy rabbit shaped entity with a humanoid face attached to the wall weeping. She closes her eyes and successfully passes to the other side, wiping the nervous sweat from her brow, she then gestures at Donald to now follow. Donald goes off with out a hitch as he looks determined to meet Sheila on the other side. He clouds his mind with thoughts of Sheila, of them sharing their lives together, even someday getting married as he looks into her beautiful blue eyes. He knows of how bad of a time this it is to think such thoughts, but it is the only way to calm himself. To stop himself from acknowledging and becoming freaked out by the monster to the side of him. Half-way through Donald is close, he hesitates noticing Sheila's expression, petrified her face is pale and twitching with distress, as she tries to mumble something. Turning to the side he notices the monsters eyes are now suddenly wide-open. Donald's heart sinks into the deepest pit of his stomach, with a nervous gulp he looks at Sheila and says in a shaky voice... “Please go on without me...I will give myself so that you can live...Please promise me you'll find a way out of this nightmare...Please JUST GO!!!”. Sheila cries out towards him in absolute distress “NOOO...!!!!”. In almost an instant the monster's body archs and moves, grabbing a hold of Donald who screams his last words “SHEILA GO NOW!!!!!”. The monster then swallows Donald's head, its incisors rip into Donald's neck and blood sprays as it runs his collar...Sheila drenched in tears turns her back, closes her eyes, and runs away...Unable to look back as the monster feeds off Donald. Sheila runs deeper into the unknown depths of this nightmare...The dreadful presence pursuing dissipates.

Speaking as a writer myself, your writing can definitely use some practice; in all those I've read for at least this series thus far, there are numerous grammatical errors from punctuation to spelling, spacing and word choice. But the images themselves are truly grotesque and well-done. You're a very talented grimdark artist. Keep practicing on both fronts!
