Sounds like Ponyville fell to a cult… I get Backwater Gospel vibes from this….
https://m.I just want to say, nice story, especially after reading the pervious story from which this sequel came from
well that got dark, uh
Maybe you should add a light gore tag or something, you don't have to, but some of the implied imagery was really disturbing,
Overall good story

I considered it, but decided against it given that it's two lines in an almost 2000 word story. And, as you said, it's more implied than anything else.

fair
As usual your horror stories are amazing.
This makes a great sequel but it even works as a stand alone. There's enough implications of Applejack's past to figure out what happened if you haven't read the original.
As above, so below.
Wonder if the ending only happened because the offerings stopped or if it was just coincidence. Anyways, that was a fun read.
So much for sleep tonight
