Clockwise from top left: a girl dancing in the woods, a creepy house, a fire monster, creepy forest, a black bird and an abandoned factory.
IT X THE WEIGHT OF BLOOD: Max finds 2 photos, taken years apart & quests to unravel the mystery of the girl in the pics & her link to 7 missing girls while tangling w/ the eldritch horror their crazed cult leader murderer unleashed on the world. #MupPit #YA #T #Q #H
What We Do In the Shadows, but for demonic hauntings. A hapless demon navigates the redtape of the haunting process as laid out by the Afterlife, Underworld, and Karmatic Compliance Authority, who even Hell answers to, all as folk creatures undermine his authority at every turn #MupPit #Com
Pitch for The Refinement: Mercury by Rachel E. Tell, complete 90k word upper YA dark fantasy. "When the insecurities of a powerful but anxious girl make her the prime target for an exploitative cult, she must learn to accept herself before she's consumed." Along with a small tagline for the book, "Till the well runs dry."
Mood board for The Refinement: Mercury by Rachel E. Tell. Includes a picture of Rhodes College, a mushroom circle, bats in a purple night sky, a well hung with lanterns, books and tea, silhouettes of a couple dancing, a silhouette of a girl being pupeteered, and a hand holding a crown. In the corners are gold images of mushrooms and a bee.
![Excerpt from The Refinement: Mercury by Rachel E. Tell:
The figure dropped to the ground on all fours, its wings falling to either side, limp and useless. And it screamed. It was like the distant roar that sounded while the energies fought inside of [Redacted name], but this was unleashed, enraged, and very much here. The figure’s face was like [Redacted name]'s but twisted into a mask of fury and hatred, mouth too wide, limbs now distorted, too thin, too long. And there were patches of blackened, charred skin, rimmed in red that slowly expanded.
Like a fallen angel, a demon summoned from the depths of hell, it started crawling, four limbs moving quick, insect-like, leaving scorch marks on the floor. It rushed straight for [Redacted name], dragging its dead wings behind it.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5vpyhy4ghy6ija5jt6lwv4hl/bafkreigkuumagv3bg5keirpiooyhbawgaqs5ilj46egexfq4gwnnw2bq44)

agents guide for DAD BODIES. top left: moodboard layout with 9 squares 3 x 3, 6 have over the top terrified men (the dads), along the top and bottom 3 squares. Blood decal drips from top squares through the middle to the bottom ones. A Victorian mansion silhouette sits in the middle most left square, the title DAD BODIES in the middle, and right of that is the silhouette of a d20 with a skull icon showing. top right: PITCH & COMPS, CABIN IN THE WOODS X JOHN DIES AT THE END X KNIVES OUT, when their detective friend is murdered during annual gaming retreat, 5 dads nust use their years of ttrpg experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like npcs in a badly-written campaign. bottom left: "Fuck me, Troy." “That’s a bit inappropriate, Dave, considering the situation.” Dave averted his gaze from the bloodied corpse of their friend to face him. “Really, Troy? Now?” Troy shrugged. “Marv would’ve laughed.” The grin on his face faltered. Marv was lying in a pool of his own blood. The cause of death was clear, the hilt of the murder weapon protruding from his back. Since Marv was stiff as a board—not much different from his current state—they could rule out suicide. Marv was also more inclined to stab others in the back instead of himself. bottom right: DAD FRIENDS, HORROR AND MYSTERY, DARK HUMOR, SECLUDED MANOR, TTRPG ELEMENTS, DARK AND STORMY NIGHT. 3 SQUARES next to each other. First contains silhouette of an old mansion, middle has TITLE DAD BODIES, third has a skull on a d20
CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END
When their detective friend is murdered at their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign.

But one by one, the other survivors disappear...people the crew insist were never on board

A Horror story, from the villain’s POV. Demons and folk creatures bicker about the best way to terrorize a group of teens too aloof to notice. Sometimes the best part of navigating the haunting process is the friendships made along the way. Being evil is harder than it looks #MupPit #Com
Mae never meant to take a life, only a name. Now, trapped in a space-bound program, she must survive deadly trials, fight alternate versions of herself, and keep her secret hidden.

Marco is a demon sent topside, charged with scaring off a group of insufferable podcasting goths before they make his 700 y/o ghosttown into a travel hotspot. Ghosts residing there demand he not kill them, or they may haunt the place too. Only, these kids refuse to be haunted #MupPit #Com
Before she dies, a former psychiatrist at a sanatorium admits to some dark truths about her time there, but not all. After her death, a ghost begins haunting her granddaughter, guiding her to the truth behind the walls of the institution in the woods. #MupPit #Q #Goth #P #H #Com
Black background with red lightning. Top left picture is a blonde blue eyed chatty Kathy doll in a red and white dress with hearts on it and red hair ribbons and a glass vase with two roses beside her. On the top right is a brunette green eyed chatty Kathy doll in a green and white dress with little red roses and a green hair ribbon. In the middle in red is the title The Doll Murders and on the left side in red and underlined is Unsolved (it looks like the old Unsolved Mysteries logo). The bottom left is what looks like a ghost girl in red with thin red smoke or curtains billowing behind her. Bottom right is a house bathed in red with a single lit up window sitting in heavy fog and a tree with a hanging skeleton in front of it.
