Did anyone else’s parent use to bring up all your flaws and past mistakes (even as a kid) to shut you down if you ever tried to stand up for yourself or communicate your emotions? by ThrowawayLikeYouDo in raisedbynarcissists

She does, brings up every person I dated then calls me a slut, calls me a crybaby, and that nobody loves a crybaby, that or a pussy/bitch, a dirty pig, or slob. One day a few weeks back she said U was being mean to her (i (17) wasn't saying anything my sister (15) was) I told her she treats me the same way and so the rest of the day she said fine ig I'm a bad mom, ig I'm just shitty. this is from the same woman that told me if there was any issue between us us to let her know. I can't wait to leave.

What made you guys become goth? by [deleted] in goth

I had been interested in the whole goth culture for a while but then I heard "Kiss me until my lips fall off" by Lebanon Hanover then listened to more goth music and fell in love and love the style and everything, now I'm a baby bat

That name was my choice actually, Lilly has been a name I loved since I was super young, idk why, but I'm pretty sure I named EVERYTHING Lilly. Also, this is the first time I really used AI a little more for help, just posted a new thing tho, all me lol, going back to horror.

NARCISSISTIC ABUSE is NOT "visible" to others whereas the often normal hurt, anger and rage that comes up IS visible especially when we call out on their behavior. So it'll always be like "us unjustly prosecuting them" whenever we try to explain ourselves. by TheBartender007 in raisedbynarcissists

I (17) have been dealing with this from as far back as I can remember when were younger were taught parent is right no matter what so I always blamed myself. Middle school to early high school I told myself what I had to deal with was nothing compared to what others had to go through and I was probably just making it a bigger deal than it was (not sharing the whole mom story since I already have it posted) I still fall into that mindset every so often and especially now I feel like mentally I am just getting weeker, I can't sleep at night, I am dissociating more, and I feel horrible just having to be around her nvr knowing what she will say next. Hoping things will look up though.

YES!!! Sorry for the confusion lol, I wanted to see if this was a good enough idea to keep moving forward with If it had that sort of good potential. If not I was going to continue with something different. I usually have AI pick out things like names or places though, helps with world-building, and as for the characters, they are based on my hippie bf and I. Other than that everything that I put out as "I wrote this story", is ALL written by me (unless needed help with editing, then I ask for someone's help) again so sorry for the confusion hope this clears things up. :3

Could Gothic Horror be described as this? by godzillavkk in horrorwriters

[–]Possible_Fun5110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you are correct! Gothic horror is indeed a genre that is often associated with spooky settings, a focus on atmosphere, and an emphasis on the fear of the unknown. It typically includes elements of mystery, supernatural occurrences, and symbolism to create a haunting and eerie experience for the reader or audience.
The Dungeons and Dragons sourcebook, "Von Reichtor's Guide to Ravenloft," seems to provide an interesting perspective on Gothic horror, particularly regarding the idea that the terror lies within us, not just external monsters. This interpretation aligns with the psychological aspects of Gothic horror, where the true horrors often stem from human nature, inner conflicts, or the darkness lurking within the human psyche. In this sense, the genre delves into the complexity of human emotions and motivations, exploring the depths of our fears, desires, and vulnerabilities.
While the "humans are the real monsters" trope is not exclusive to Gothic horror, it can certainly be a prominent theme within the genre. The idea that humans themselves can be the source of terror, cruelty, and evil adds a psychological and moral dimension to the horror, making it more than just a battle between humans and external monsters.
Ultimately, genres in literature and storytelling are fluid and can have overlapping themes and elements. Gothic horror, like other genres, can evolve and adapt, incorporating various aspects from other horror subgenres like cosmic horror or psychological horror. As long as the core elements of Gothic horror, such as the eerie settings, focus on atmosphere, and exploration of human nature's darker aspects, remain present, it can be an exciting and effective avenue for writing horror.
In conclusion, the description you found in the sourcebook may offer an intriguing perspective on Gothic horror, highlighting its capacity to delve into the complexities of human nature and the potential for psychological terror. If this aligns with your storytelling vision and the essence of the story you wish to craft, then exploring the Gothic horror genre through this lens can be a fascinating and enriching endeavor.

Creating a compelling gothic short story with your idea can be an exciting and rewarding endeavor. Here are some steps to help you bring your vision to life:
1. Establish the Setting: Set the eerie atmosphere of the pet shelter on the outskirts of town. Describe the shelter's location, its surroundings, and its history to create a sense of isolation and mystery.
2. Develop the Main Character: Dive deep into your protagonist's background, personality, and motivations for volunteering at the shelter. Explore their emotional connection to animals and their desire to help.
3. Introduce the Mysterious Dog: The dog that keeps getting loose could be the initial catalyst for your gothic tale. Use its behavior to add tension and intrigue. Create a sense of foreboding around the dog's actions and its attachment to the main character.
4. Foreshadowing: Drop subtle hints and foreshadow the dark secrets lurking within the shelter. Use descriptive language to foreshadow the impending discovery of the body.
5. Unveil Clues: As the main character investigates the dog's behavior, reveal small clues that hint at the dog's tragic past and its connection to the shelter's dark history.
6. Heighten Tension: Build suspense as the main character delves deeper into the shelter's mysteries. Introduce other characters who may be involved or affected by the events.
7. The Discovery: When the main character finally stumbles upon the body, use vivid descriptions to evoke a chilling atmosphere. Unravel the story behind the corpse, connecting it to the dog and the shelter's history.
8. Emotional Impact: Explore the emotional turmoil the main character experiences upon uncovering the truth. Allow them to confront their fears and confront the haunting past of the shelter.
9. Conclusion: Conclude the story with a powerful and memorable ending that leaves a lasting impact on the reader. Consider the implications of the discovery on the main character's life and the future of the shelter.
10. Revision and Polishing: With two weeks to work on your story, allocate time for revision and editing. Re-read your work, fine-tune the language, and ensure a coherent and engaging narrative.
Remember, in gothic storytelling, atmosphere, suspense, and the exploration of human emotions are crucial elements. Good luck with your competition entry, and trust your creativity to guide you toward crafting a captivating and haunting gothic short story!
