Trixie is haunted by nightmares and begins to question if she let Twilight down in Dappleshore. When her dreams filter through to the waking world, Trixie scrambles for answers. How far will it take her, and can she face the mare in the mirror?

This story was revised on July 15 2013 to bring it up to date with Fillystata and Stitch. The changes are mostly minor.

At a fair held in the town of Dappleshore, Twilight stumbles upon something from her family's past and is drawn to investigate. But will she succumb to its sinister influence, and can Trixie and Luna set their differences aside to help her?

The title and certain themes were inspired by the song Filistata by Stolen Babies. The plot is loosely based on The Case of Charles Dexter Ward by H. P. Lovecraft.

This story was updated and improved on June 27, 2013 along with the addition of a bonus chapter. The changes are not massive, but there are a few new details and scenes.

Big Macintosh seeks help in realizing his greatest dream, but will anypony understand?

This story has been described as "creepy" and "disturbing" by some, though it was never intended to be like that. Still, I feel I should warn just in case. It is meant to be silly and random and not to be taken too seriously.
