Down Goes Three by ~Morthax

The BasementThe first thing she noticed was the smell of her own hair. Someone had washed and brushed it when she had been completely knocked out, washed away the smell of blood and sweat from her body. She didn't open her eyes just yet, but concentrated on figuring out where she was and why. The ground she laid on was soft, some kind of rather rough fabric. She tried to rub the floor with her hands, but couldn't do so. She couldn't move her arms, they were tightly crossed under her breasts. Finally she decided to take a look around and opened her eyes carefully. Everything was pitch dark, and she rolled her eyes and pushed herself on her feet. Only now The Basement by ~Morthax

Enter The Asylum by ~Morthax

Click The tracks screeched as the train came to a halt. The people lying on the floor inside the third car slowly opened their eyes to see sunlight creeping in through the roof. Their nostrils burned at the smell of smoke coming in through the holes in the ceiling. Their mouths watered at the possibility of food just outside. The sound of footsteps and clanking metal vibrated through the car. It has been a while since any of them remembered being fully alive.
In the darkest corner of the car lies a small family huddled together to stay warm and to keep their childClick by ~DLCam

Dark Works Contest #1 7/15 - 8/15

Yes, finally there is a contest. You might have been able to tell by now that Dark Works isnt the one to flood your mailboxes with update after bullshit update..however...I will do it this once...

Scenes of a Killer (rules below)

-You will focus this piece on one of a handful of notable serial killers. Get inside the mind of who you choose. Imagine you are directing a bio on the killer of your choice and you have that one "money shot" in your mind for the movie's trailer...that money shot will be your piece for the contest - A single image that shows who this person is, how they came to be, what they have done, and the sheer darkness that saturates it all. Let that imagination of yours run wild. ...Besides, the winner will not be selected by me, but all of YOU.
(remember to read the rules below)

Your choice...
*John Wayne Gacy
*Ted Bundy
*Jeffery Dahmer
*Richard Ramirez
*Jack the Ripper
*David Berkowitz
*Albert Fish
*The Zodiac
*Aileen Wuornos
*Elizabeth Bathory

(Charles Manson is not included like some others because he wasnt, by definition, a serial killer. Yes, I know there are more I could put on this list but dont get your panties in a bunch - just go with the list.)

RULES
*Must be a killer listed on this notification
*NO portraits (a head shot of a serial killer)
*Original art created for THIS contest. (This will help to understand who is voting for your piece, it's not that way because im trying to be an ass)
*Traditional, Digital, and Photography ONLY

**Works must be submitted into the "Killer Scenes" folder.
After the contest, all work previously submitted will be moved into the appropriate folders, so dont worry, you efforts wont go to waste.

The deadline for this contest is August 15, 2010 12:01am EST

Any questions? Just write me

*Deena6969 Feb 25, 2013

Why would you accept members but never give them any chance of having work accepted! By Not answering at all!
Thanks for accepting me as a member but I am leaving as it is not worth the time to submit with no answers!

*TylerPinkston Oct 30, 2012 Student Writer

Awesome Group! I've got a new zombie short story coming out soon! watch if interested

~YaensArt Jul 27, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Okay that's it, I'm out. No one accepts or declines submissions anyway.

~black-cat16 May 21, 2012

_{Another incompetent admin. The last time he visited DA was 90 weeks ago. I am leaving this group, there is no one who cares about it.}

~witch1978 May 17, 2012

Group is dead ... no admin there to aproove submissions ...

~IMNIUM May 11, 2012 Professional Artisan Crafter

I am leaving the grup because nothing is happening here and all my submissions in the last several months expired

If you decide to revive the group lemme know

~YaensArt Apr 29, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Is this a dead group? I submitted art and it expired. The last blog entry is from summer 2010. No one here anymore?

~slephoto Jan 15, 2012 Hobbyist Photographer

Hmm, no Admins & the founder hasn't logged in for over a year, I guess the group's dead.

Does anyone know if there's a way to CLAIM it?
I'm withdrawing my membership for now, if it comes back to life I'll return.

Thänx

~AsylumWitch Feb 26, 2011

Since my art repeatedly expires and I see you have no Admins working here, I am making the assumption that this group is dead and closed.

Please, have the decency to state that fact and close submissions!

~Argonaut999 Apr 27, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Thank you say that, I asked myself why take so long because of my pictures .. I delete my membership
