Survive the Night

About Survive the Night

 

When Kevin Cooper and his troublemaking friends venture off to explore Ashmore House, Victoria tags along to protect her classmate, Icarus, from the manipulative tricks of Kevin and his posse. But the irresponsibility of their actions catches up to them when Icarus suddenly goes missing. Did he run home in fear, or was he victim to a supernatural misdeed? The answer becomes clear when Victoria and the others find themselves trapped and tormented by the psychotic ghost of a man who murdered his family a hundred years ago. Now she and Kevin will be forced to set their differences aside if they are to survive the night and save their friends. And through the haunting acts of demonic possession, clairvoyance, and a palette of other deadly horrors, they’ll discover that they have a deeper link to the house…one that will threaten to tear the fabric that separates this life from the realm of the dead.

The Dark Menace

The Dark Menace

About The Dark Menace

 

“The Dark Menace isn’t just horror, it’s a descent into fear, sleep, and madness. Gripping, emotional, and rooted in chilling reality. If you’ve ever felt watched in the dark, this story will haunt you. Absolutely compelling.” Jessica Raye

Noah Janzen is plagued by nightmares and numerous sleep disorders; night terrors, sleepwalking, sleep talking, and a horrifying sleep paralysis that often invokes chilling images of the Shadow People and the Hat Man.

Determined to prevent his nocturnal demons from interfering with his successful career and newly formed relationship with Angela Rosewood, he meets her in a local pub. But when he sees a shadowy figure wearing a fedora and a trench coat eerily watching him through a window, he freaks out and flees.

He soon learns that a hat-wearing psycho has viciously attacked Angela, smashing in her door, trashing her apartment, and nearly killing her. Worse still, Angela suspects Noah has morphed into a conduit for evil and starts distancing herself from him.

Desperate to save his new relationship and find answers, Noah seeks the aid of physicist and sleep specialist, Doctor Neil Samuelson. While remaining tight-lipped on his experiments involving the Shadow People and the Hat Man, the enigmatic doctor informs Noah that an old woman has been brutally murdered at the hands of The Dark Menace.

As blood-curdling reports of Shadow People and the Hat Man escalate, Noah suspects Neil has accidentally opened up a portal to another dimension, unleashing a torrent of ghostly evil entities, hell-bent on terrorizing and destroying humanity.

He’s thrust into an epic battle and must find answers to a strange and mysterious real-life phenomenon that has haunted and terrorized thousands of people around the world for centuries.

The Watcher in the Rows

The Watcher in the Rows

About The Watcher in the Rows

Eight friends thought the annual corn maze was just another October tradition. Laughter, cider, cheap scares under the stars. But once they step inside, the paths close behind them, the rows twist wrong, and something in the maze begins to count them.
At first, it feels like part of the act: actors in masks, staged screams, shadows that follow too closely. But soon the laughter dies. One by one, the friends realize they are being hunted by something that isn’t pretending; something wearing burlap and thorns, a scarecrow that doesn’t move like a man.
What begins as a night of fun unravels into a fight for survival as the maze bends around them, twisting into impossible chambers and forcing them to face more than monsters; forcing them to face themselves. Rules whisper through the husks. Doors open where none should exist. And every step deeper tightens the spiral at the maze’s heart.
To survive, they must hold each other together, remember what the maze tries to erase, and fight not only to escape…but to tear down the spiral before it turns all of them into scarecrows like the ones already rotting in the corn.

Stricken

Stricken

About Stricken

 

Every year, strokes impact over 800,000 Americans. Walter Reed, a night janitor, becomes one of these statistics when he suffers a devastating stroke that leaves him partially paralyzed and dependent on his children, Randy and Melissa.

When Walter’s estranged brother Arthur dies from an apparent stroke, Walter inherits a Gothic Victorian mansion worth millions. The inheritance seems like salvation—until the family discovers Arthur’s death unleashed something ancient and malevolent that had been contained within the estate’s walls.

As Walter recovers in the mansion, his condition becomes a gateway for a parasitic entity that feeds on weakness and vulnerability. The presence doesn’t just threaten Walter—it begins to influence his recovery in ways that put his entire family at risk, especially his vulnerable five-year-old granddaughter Chelsea.

Stricken blends medical drama with supernatural horror, following a family’s fight for survival against both Walter’s debilitating condition and the darkness that exploits it. With his physical limitations making him the perfect vessel, Walter must find strength not in his healing body, but in his love for his family—before the entity claims them all.

In this tale where stroke symptoms become supernatural possession and recovery becomes a race against evil, the greatest battle isn’t against disability, but against losing one’s humanity entirely.

WHISPERS CARRIED BY BONES: FOLK HORROR THAT REFUSES TO DIE

WHISPERS CARRIED BY BONES: FOLK HORROR THAT REFUSES TO DIE

About WHISPERS CARRIED BY BONES: FOLK HORROR THAT REFUSES TO DIE

 

Whispers Carried by Bones is a collection of dark folklore and forgotten stories — unsettling, intimate, and steeped in silence. Each piece is a fragment of something older. Something that should have been left behind.

This is a book for quiet rooms. For nights when the wind doesn’t move. For readers who understand that some stories don’t wait to be told — they return.

These stories don’t scream. They linger. They hum at the edges of memory. They come from lands where grief is practiced like a tradition, and silence holds more weight than words. There are no heroes here. No answers. Only voices — half-remembered, half-invited — that return when called, even by accident.

If you choose to read this book, read it slowly. Read it in the light.

And above all… be careful what you carry with you when you leave.

The Revenants by Mary Hallberg

About The Revenants by Mary Hallberg

They came for ghosts, but found something much worse…
It’s the summer after graduation, and 18-year-old Will wants one last blast with his friends before they go their separate ways for college. At the suggestion of his ghost hunter friend Cam, they sneak onto the grounds of Pleasanthood, a town abandoned after a devastating chemical spill twenty years earlier. The town is supposed to be haunted by the people who died in the disaster. But Will doesn’t believe in the paranormal, so he’s not too worried about that. His primary concern is getting somewhere with his crush, Piper, who he somehow convinced to come along.
But once they arrive, the group quickly realizes something’s not right. Stationary objects move seemingly on their own. Thick fog surrounds the town on an otherwise clear evening. And even though it’s the middle of July in south Louisiana, it’s cold enough for them to wear jackets.
And things are about to get worse. When the sun sets, something else emerges from the nearby cemetery. Corpses brought to life by the chemical spill set out to consume the living, regenerating — and getting stronger — with each kill. Now, trapped within the thick woods surrounding the plant, Will and his friends must escape the living dead…or become part of them.
