THE FIRE IMP
Episode One: The Glowing
by Sabastian Gall
After a concert in Budapest, two teenagers take a shortcut through an abandoned construction site near Nyugati tér — the empty lot where the old Centrum building once stood.
Four days later, one of them begins seeing something impossible.
A small creature made of ash and fire.
Too fast to follow.
Too real to ignore.
No one else can see it.
As the sightings grow more violent, an old urban legend begins to surface:
the Fire Imp appears three times.
If you survive the third haunting, you live.
If you don’t… the fire takes something with it.
Set in the shadowed streets, underpasses, and sleepless nights of Budapest, The Fire Imp blends urban horror, psychological dread, and dark folklore into a chilling story about fear, guilt, and the places that should have stayed forgotten.
