Just trying to become a better writer. I'll get there eventually...

T

Stumped on the mystery of the locked box, Twilight begins to get frustrated. When Princess Celestia suggests to Twilight to visit her old castle, she jumps at the opportunity to make any type of progress. Little did she know she would get a lot more than she bargained for...

Basically this story is a mix between Castle Mane-ia and Bats!, but with a dark and interesting twist. Join Twilight and her friends as they brave the thousand-year-old castle and unearth its ancient mysteries while escaping a sinister, unknown threat. Will the ponies be able to escape the clutches of darkness? Or will they be morphed into a shadow of their former selves?

Yeah...ok, Wise choice to add the author's note in the beginning. Without it, this is pretty lame. But I will follow. Vampires in an old castle...yummy!

Don't ya mean story instead if storey? But good job anyways, but hurry it up with the chapters, they're good, keep it up man

4759896 It means the same thing, it just makes it seem clearer to me to put it that way. And thank you for your support.

you spelt story wrong.

4772850 It means the same thing, it is just a clearer way to to get the meaning across. You can spell it that way when referring to the height of buildings and such.

OMG i was thinking same thing :pinkiegasp:

OMGEEEEEEEE :pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp:

4760171 oh ok, I'm just more used to story instead of storey.

I. Need. MOARRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) good job

Well, obviously she won't :derpytongue2:

Not that that'll stop her, of course.

Hrm. Is this Dracula Classic, that has complete control over all he has sired and all their own turned, or was he only controlling Fluttershy by directly possessing her?

EDIT: I want to upvote, but the upvotes are at 42 and I kind of don't want to change that :derpytongue2:

Oh well.

I would just point out that the summary is less then the story deserves.
Aside from the summary, I can't point at anything more to complain about, before reading more of the story.

5272812 If it is worth your vote, give it.

5326694 Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the story! More chapters will be rolling out soon now that my college work is finally beginning to die down. But out of curiosity, what would you suggest I change the summery to? I thought it was fine, but I'm always open to suggestions.

5358929 The size of the chapters looks good, while you still have what seems to be a short time span in each of the chapters.

I would have a blank line after the first sentence and one after the fourth, in order to make room for the respective points.
If you can't put in Paragraphs in the Summary, it reflects poorly on the story in the eyes of your future readers.
What you see in the summary and the first few chapters is what you expect for the rest of the story.

You have an exceptional vote-ratio for the story, make your best to maintain it along with the development of the story.

The next chapter is certainly due, but don't rush publishing new chapters after that. Just post them, but take at least a week, before actually publishing.

The mind control fetishist in me says "More mind control, NOW."
The writer in me admires your pacing.

... Pinky ex machina ...

“Don’t believe me, do ya? Well why don’t you look at what it did to Rainbow?” she said, pointing with her white hoof at the bulge in the corner.

Wait, white hoof? :rainbowhuh: The only two ponies present are Applejack and Twilight, and since Applejack is talking she would point her ORANGE hoof:ajbemused:

Sorry if this sounds harsh, just want to let you know:pinkiehappy:

6577649 Well, if you recall back in Chp 3, AJ was coated in bat guano while she was in the basement. By now it crusted over her orange fur, making it appear white.

She slipped and started sliding in the direction of the wall, passing her sweet escape and coating herself with the sticky white goo. She was able to use her aching hooves to stop herself right before impact, but the true damage was already done. As she crashed with a loud ‘BANG!’ all the bats simultaneously were beginning to stir. Using echolocation, each of the creatures found their target: the orange and white earth pony, trying her best to regain her footing.

Still, I appreciate the comment. I'm working on another chapter to be released soon, but idk if it'll be out by Halloween or not.

When can we expect the next chapter?

This is dead, isn't it?
