Happy Halloween, fellow hellcheers!!! If you’re looking for a spooky re-read today, I have two hellcheer ghost stories that fit the vibe, but BE WARNED: one is smutty and fun, and one will rip your heart out.

Electric Love - 👻 ❤️‍🔥 The ahem came from across the room. “Look, I don’t mean to be a dick about it,” drawled a maybe-familiar voice. “But that’s my shirt.”

Chrissy froze. She was going to count to three and sit up. Her fingers flew to the nightstand and inched blindly along it to find her phone. There wasn’t going to be anybody there. There couldn’t be anybody there. One…two……….

Haunt Me - 👻 💔 Maybe if he’d tried harder, stayed longer, pulled her back to earth. Maybe.

He just left her there.

There’s a green scrunchie on his wrist he never says a word about.

Kindred Freaks! It’s that time again. ❤️‍🔥

This Year we celebrate #HellcheerWeek2025, with a very special RomCom Edition.

Inspired by 7 classic romcoms (Pretty Woman, When Harry Met Sally, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Before Sunrise, 10 Things I Hate About You, Sleepless in Seattle, and The Proposal), each prompt of Hellcheer Week will give you a chance to fall in love with Eddie and Chrissy all over again!

More details to come 💞

Die-hard Hellcheer shippers, I see you and I miss you! It’s been a while, but here’s the start of a brand new Hellcheer/Before Sunrise AU set in 1980s New York…

(snaps off guitar pick necklace)…Hellcheer fam, this is for you! 😆❤️🙏🏻

She smiled sweetly at him, revealing the edge of one slightly crooked tooth — that you could own a diamond bracelet and a crooked tooth at the same time was a socioeconomic possibility that made Eddie’s head spin — just visible between her lips. Really fucking cute, though. “Plenty of time to sightsee, I guess.”

“Yep,” he agreed, popping the ‘p’ in the exact way that Wayne had done for Eddie’s entire life. “Gotta walk around and get that foam finger.”

“By yourself?” She bit her lower lip. Crooked tooth and all.

The unspoken invitation hung in the air between them. Shimmering like a mirage. It would be so easy to say it.

Chrissy, would you maybe like to walk around the city with me —

Happy belated Hellcheer Day to all who celebrate!!! Have a surprise new chapter (after TWO YEARS 😱) of my post-1986 fic If/Then, which takes place on Hellcheer Day!

✨🖤💗✨

“So, the gang’s all here,” he says quietly, tipping his head sideways towards her until the shaggy ends of his hair tickle her ear. “Or at least, uh, all the ones I could round up.”

Around a large study table in the back, she spies the curly head of Dustin Henderson, gangly Mike Wheeler sitting backwards over a chair like a stick insect, Robin Buckley popping gum, and…

“...Nancy!”

It hits her in a rush how good it feels to see Nancy Wheeler’s face, how badly she’d needed to find a friend — someone from her life before when everything was just ordinary and safe and boring, not cursed or whatever this was.

Chrissy sucks in a breath, bites her lip, and exhales in a single unhinged stream, “Eddie and I are from the future and we’re stuck in a time thing and we can’t stop dying and we don’t know why.”

sorry that you think my fictional ship is illegal. I actually consulted a fictional lawyer about it and he had a talk with a fictional cop about the fictional laws and then they both looked at me, and very seriously said "we'll allow it because it's hot."
