The Unholy Conception is a collection of chilling tales. Where women wake up pregnant and carrying something unnatural, fathered by forces beyond comprehension, from ghostly landlords collecting rent in the flesh to monsters who see wombs as holy grails, these stories explore the terror of conception without choice.
Some births are miracles. These are curses.
Warning: Contains dark themes of supernatural possession, malevolent pregnancies, and body horror. For readers who dare ask: What’s growing inside me?
The Phantom’s Claim
A woman starts showing after sleeping in a haunted house, but ultrasounds reveal no fetus, just shadows moving under her skin. The ghostly landlord smiles: "Rent is due."
The Changeling’s Cuckoo
A grieving mother miscarries, but weeks later, her womb knocks back. The Fae left something behind, and it’s growing restless. The Fae King answers his child’s call.
The Shadow in the Ultrasound
A woman’s obstetrician panics when the foetus looks back with his dead son’s eyes. Some souls don’t wait for invitations.
The Werewolf’s Moon-Cycle
A hiker survives an attack but starts showing by the next full moon. The alpha doesn’t bite to kill. He bites to breed. The transformation is complete, and he returns to collect what is his.
The Dollmaker’s Heir
When Bianca buys an antique doll, she dreams of its Victorian maker. Then her skin chills, her belly hardens, and something inside begins to tap.
The Necromancer’s Inheritance
A woman inherits a mansion and the still-warm corpse in its bed. When she dreams of him, her womb answers. The will didn’t mention a posthumous resurrection.
The Demon’s Prenup
A woman finds an old wedding ring. When she puts it on, her belly swells overnight. A sulphur-scented voice whispers, "You signed for this in a past life."
The contract was in blood, and the dowry was her body.
The Vampire’s Delayed Feast
A one-night stand leaves a woman pregnant, except the father has no pulse. Now he’s watching her, waiting as her body ripens.
He didn’t drink from her. He was saving his appetite for the vintage inside.
