🩸 Sunday Screams: Friday the 13th Mask Light Review 🩸By The Nightly Storyteller

🕯️ Monologue

There are nights when even the shadows seem afraid to move—when the silence between the trees feels… watched. Tonight, the air smells like metal and rain, thick enough to taste. The faint hum of electricity runs through the house, like it knows something I don’t. I’ve been restless lately. Sleep comes in short bursts, and when it does, I dream of water. Not calm water—no, this is black, rippling, alive. There’s a mask floating on the surface. It stares back, waiting.

Jason’s face—or what’s left of it—has a way of reminding you that monsters don’t die. They wait. They bide their time beneath the surface, behind the lights, inside the walls.

And tonight, one of those masks sits on my shelf, glowing faintly in the dark.

💀 Friday the 13th Mask Light Review

The Friday the 13th Mask Light is a collectible that feels alive after midnight. The light flickers like an old campfire bulb, bathing the room in a cold, haunted glow. It’s modeled after Jason Voorhees’ iconic hockey mask, detailed with cracked edges, bloodstained grooves, and the kind of aged plastic that looks like it’s seen too many nights at Camp Crystal Lake.

When turned on, the light pulses slowly, almost like breathing—giving it that eerie sense that Jason himself might be waiting just behind it. It’s powered by USB or batteries, so you can place it anywhere you want a little murderous ambiance—desk, shelf, nightstand, or shrine to 80s horror nostalgia.

It’s not too bright, but that’s the point. It’s perfect for those who want a subtle glow while watching slasher marathons, painting miniatures, or writing about cursed objects at 3 a.m.

For fans of Friday the 13th, this isn’t just decor—it’s a warning light. When it glows red, it’s a sign that something might be creeping closer than you think.

Final Verdict:
🔪 9/10 blood drops.
Perfect for horror collectors, night owls, or anyone who knows it’s never safe to go back to camp.

📜 The Storyteller Chronicles

The storm outside had settled into a nervous drizzle. Raindrops crawled down the window like veins of silver. Nyra stood near the bookshelf, her reflection flickering against the faint glow of the Jason mask light.

“We need help,” she said quietly, her voice barely louder than the rain. “Finding out what’s happening to us—it’s too much. I think Rhett Harker might know something. About the other attacks. Maybe even about… our pasts.”

Her words lingered in the air like smoke.

I nodded, the name familiar. Rhett was an investigator—obsessed with the strange, the inexplicable. If anyone could dig through the fog surrounding us, it was him.

I reached for my phone to call him, but before I could dial, it buzzed.

Unknown Number:
You may be in over your heads. Be careful. Be ready to accept the answers you find.

The screen dimmed. My stomach tightened. Nyra’s eyes met mine—wide, uncertain, yet determined.

I hit “Call” anyway.

The line clicked, a few rings, then Rhett’s gruff voice. “Storyteller. I was just—”

A sharp thud cut him off. Then a scraping sound. A muffled shout. Something metallic clattered to the floor.

“Rhett?!” I shouted, gripping the phone. Static hissed through the speaker. Then—nothing. The call went dead.

The mask light flickered. Once. Twice. The room darkened until only Nyra’s trembling silhouette remained in the red glow.

“What are we going to do?” I whispered, my voice hollow.

Nyra turned slowly, her eyes reflecting that ghostly light. “We find him,” she said. “And we face whatever’s waiting for us.”

Outside, thunder rolled across the sky like distant footsteps.

And somewhere—out there—the answer waited.

🕯️ The Gold Coin Chronicles Presents: “The Draw”

🎙️ Intro — The Whisper Between Worlds > The rain has a voice, you know. Not the soft lullaby poets talk about, but something older… lonelier. It speaks in patterns — the rhythm of regret against a windowpane, the sigh of wind slipping through an open crack. When I was younger, I used to listen to it. But that was before I learned that some knocks shouldn’t be answered. And yet, we always do. We open the door — hoping for closure, or forgiveness, or maybe just a sign that we’re not alone. Tonight’s story begins with a knock like that… and a coin that should’ve stayed in the rain. --- 🌧️ Scene One: “The Draw” Cary, Illinois. A neighborhood where every house looks like it’s waiting for something — blinds half-closed, porch lights flickering like they’re afraid of the dark. Inside one of those houses, three friends gathered as rain lashed the windows. The air smelled like damp carpet, burnt popcorn, and stale beer. Somewhere, a fridge hummed with a tired rattle. The heater...

🎩 The Nightly Storyteller > “Time is the cruelest of currencies. We spend it without thought, we beg for more, and we always lose it in the end. But every so often… time gives something back. A second chance. A warning. Or, in this case—one final act of gratitude.” --- The rain had finally stopped by the time Evan left the funeral. He stood at the edge of the cemetery, hands in his coat pockets, watching as the groundskeeper lowered the last bouquet onto the fresh soil. His elderly neighbor, Mr. Harker, had lived alone for years—quiet, kind, and always ready with a story about “the good old days.” When the two became neighbors, Evan often helped with groceries, yard work, and fixing things around the house. Harker didn’t have much, but he always said, “You’ve given me the one thing no one else has, son—your time.” Two days later, a small box arrived in the mail. The return label: H. Harker. Inside, wrapped in soft cloth, was an old pocket watch—its gold casing aged, the...

🎙️ Intro — The Weight of a Debt “Fortune’s currency is paid in shadow,” they whisper. Elias didn’t know he’d signed. The fine print is written in whispers only the debtor hears—an invisible ledger of repayment inked in the parts of ourselves we forget we gave up. The Collector came anyway. 🌙 The Coin and the Cold Elm and Willow, late afternoon. The air clung to skin like damp silk, heavy with the scent of wet asphalt and fresh-cut grass. Elias sat on the curb, elbows on his knees, watching cars drift by in lazy procession. The sun was setting, casting long shadows that stretched like skeletal fingers. Not waiting. Just existing. That’s when she walked by. A woman in a long gray coat, despite the sweltering heat, her steps quiet, deliberate. She didn’t look at him, but the air shifted when she passed—colder, carrying the faint scent of lavender and rain before it had fallen. Something slipped from her hand as she went. A coin. It landed in the gutter wi...
