#mabsdrawlloweenclub2025 Day 9 — Undead Under the Moon

Tonight’s prompt: Undead.
And here he comes – wrapped in yesterday’s linens, glowing softly beneath a turquoise moon. Not your usual shambling horror, but a lone wanderer out for a walk through the afterlife’s quieter corners.

There’s something peaceful about this one. A mummy, yes, but not malicious – more curious. Maybe he’s out stretching his centuries-old limbs, feeling the cool breeze on what used to be skin, tracing the constellations he once saw as a living man. The desert remembers him, and the stars do too.

The ground blushes pink beneath his steps – a sign that even the undead leave a little warmth behind when they move through the world with purpose. His eyes glow like twin coals, steady but not unkind. A spark of persistence, of still here, even when time has said otherwise.

Sometimes the undead aren’t chasing anyone. Sometimes, they’re just trying to remember what it felt like to be alive.

(A soft hum of wind, a shuffle of bandages, and the moon keeping watch. That’s tonight’s magic.)
