"You can't fight it now. You've already had a taste." He sounds excited. He sounds EXCITED. Did I just give into this maniac? He's by the mirror now, getting ready for something. Instead, he steps away from the mirror, to let me look inside. The building was still set ablaze. And I was sprawled out on the floor, asleep. I was fighting, as if I was in a nightmare. He faces me again. "...I can feel it..." Without warning, his feet began to sprout large tentacles of black, curling like weeds. They grew quickly, stretching out in fat, long swirls across the floor. They seemed to crowd against the wall and...melt into it. They were attaching themselves to the wall, like giant veins pulsing and growing faster with each second. "W-hat what is this?! Who are you?" I shouted horrendously. I noticed the blackness take hold of my legs and lift me up onto the wall, sticking me in place and tying me down. "LET ME GO!" "I can't Matthew. You're mine now..." He snickers. Matt Midnigh has spent his entire childhood inside an asylum. Every night he has horrific nightmares that he cannot explain... Until now. The residence of the town have gone missing, and Matt's dreams seem to link to the culprit behind it all. Now, Matt must leave his boxed-in world to discover the secrets behind the fires, and find a way to remember his past. But before he can battle the Devil, he must fight the demon within himself.

Epic, mind-bending, and as sweet as it is vicious, Lani Lenore’s Nevermor is a dark fantasy based on the legend of Peter Pan, geared toward a more mature audience. Recommended for 16+ – In 1873, 15-year-old Wren longs to escape her life in a London orphanage. Prompted by a world she sees in a dream, Wren begins to believe in a world called Nevermor, an island at the edge of the universe, where all dreams go. She discovers the Rifter, a wild and volatile but handsome boy, who guards the realm of dreams from terrifying nightmare creatures. Wren begins to desire her own life there – to escape with her brothers without fearing that anyone will separate them. Wren falls in love with Nevermor – and with the Rifter – and yet the more she learns of a conflict between the Rifter and a wicked, black-hearted man called the Scourge, the more she comes to realize that Nevermor is not a place for children.

My (as in, AwesomeMcCoolname/Hannah Grace's) journal. If any of you readers have any ideas, explanations or otherwise, please don't be afraid to speak up. I need all the help I can get. See, weird things are drawn to me. Creepy things. And instead of suffering quietly like I have for years, I think it's time to see if anyone can help me. -Hannah Grace
