    Whitechapel, London 1894. Sophie Wickes and her family struggle to survive, melancholy eats away at her father more and more with each passing day, and her passion for cultivating flowers brings no income. She must swallow her pride and set aside her hatred for England's aristocracy when she's offered a chance of employment by the reclusive Lord Edgar Cushing to tend the gardens of his Rosenthorne Hall. However, the estate, its gardens, and their master is nothing what Sophie expected. The house? Rotting, dilapidated, hideous. The gardens? The husk of something alive, whimsical, beautiful. The master? Faceless, nothing more than a voice from the shadows. Though her heart is filled with fear and anger, Sophie becomes enthralled by the garden's mystic, untainted beauty and she develops a close friendship with the Lord Cushing, despite him being nothing but a mere whisper of darkness. However, whatever enchantment the gardens and Lord Cushing's voice bring her shatters as she begins to receive nightly visitations from a crooked-jawed phantom and butterflies who's wings whisper of a bloody past and the truth behind the faceless Lord Cushing's gentlemanly masquerade. ~~~ 2nd Draft!!

    Cover picture NOT MINE. First story; I'm good at essays, but not so good at creative writing. You have your main character moving into a small town, similar to Derry from It. Everything seems normal aside from the constant stares from locals. Fitting in with the new town pretty well, she is accepted as an insider. As an insider you start to see strange things as normal. The seemingly new school has cob webs in the corners and scratches that look like they were made by fingernails in the bathroom stalls. There are not many rules, with the adults acting like mindless drones and the teens running the town. There is just the usual: #1 Silence is never good, #2 Never look at something that doesn't want to be seen, and the most important rule #3 NEVER miss a high school football game.

    Inheriting a bride and losing his father might not have been the best reasons for moving across the country, but when Eiren arrives at his betrothed's family castle, the prospect of being married becomes far less concerning than simply not going insane... or getting himself killed. • • • Called to the home of his betrothed at the Kelfordshire Estate, Eiren Adair is suddenly pulled from a life of comfort far, far away from his father and any marriage obligations. Now in want for comfort and luxury, he finds himself trapped in wait for his impending marriage to the Lord Van Wyk's daughter in a season of perpetual rain and snow. Surrounded by a hostile family and haunted by the terrifying statues scattered around the estate - modeled after the dead wives of the Lord Van Wyk by the famed sculptor Severin Quilby - Eiren must come to terms with his own desire to live and escape, before he becomes another tragedy of Kelfordshire Castle. • • • ▪️ 2020 Wattys Horror Winner ▪️ 1st Place Horror 2021 Punk Rock Awards ▪️ Content Warning: Contains some vulgar language and mild violence

    Vicar Andrews is avoiding his brother's funeral by hiding upstairs in the family house, rifling through the boxes that will inevitably go to an estate sale, when he discovers a journal far too old to be his brother's. Possessed by curiosity and eagre for the distraction from the guests he's supposed to console, Vicar finds himself lost in the world of the journal's owner, Winn Peterson - a resident at his very house one hundred years ago. As he loses himself in her increasingly disturbing recollection of events within the house, the similarities between their situations grow to an incoincidental degree. The sudden appearance of the doctor in both Winn's life and his late brother's, as well as the rapid decline of their respective states of health, prove a worrying trend in the dark history of the Andrews Estate. Battling the traumatic memories of his own turbulent past, Vicar begins to suspect that the connection between his brother's death and the unfortunate fate of Winn Peterson are tied together by something far more sinister than a suspicious doctor. . . .
