A mammoth being of ancient metals and gears has awakened from the earth with the sole intention of destroying every villain in Equestria. Untouchable, unmovable, Discord remains as its last target of worth. Now the Spirit of Chaos must beg for Celestia's aid, even if things are so much more complicated than he would have ever wanted.

After a part of the obstacle course at the Wonderbolts Camp broke during an exercise, Spitfire is sure that somepony must have sabotaged the course. With Copper Top, she calls in the best crime investigator from Manehattan to solve the case. But even if she didn't found exactly what she was looking for, her investigation leads to an even bigger crime than just sabotage.

Luna has a secret.

A secret that she's kept close to her heart ever since her return from the moon, a secret she's hidden for so long that she's no longer even sure if it's real. At least until it returns to haunt her, and she has no choice but to confide in Celestia and hope her sister trusts that she hasn't gone mad.

It's time to tell Celestia about the circles.

It's Nightmare Night in Ponyville once again, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders invite new friend Diamond Tiara to join in one of their favorite traditions; the classic game of Ghosts in the Graveyard! The rules are simple, and the game is easy and fun for everyone.

But the cemetery, like the game, has rules. And when those rules are broken, consequences are never far behind...

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Inspired by the classic children's game with some mild influence from the haunted house "Graveyard Games" from Universal Studios Florida's Halloween Horror Nights 29.

Written for the Halloween in April Horror Contest with the Barcast.

After Luna had written to her about how she wouldn't be able to make it to Ponyville for Nightmare Night, Twilight decided to organize a small camping trip to the outskirts of the Everfree Forest with her friends. She'd initially planned to have Trixie come along and entertain them with a small show, but unfortunately the unicorn had declined the offer, saying that she had something else to do.

So, since it was, after all, Nightmare Night, Twilight decided that the best thing to do to pass the time would be to tell scary stories to each other around the fire. She was not expecting her friends to each have such a diverse concept of what "scary" means.

It's not uncommon for Ponyville to be quiet when Twilight wakes up before dawn. But this morning it's too quiet.
