They told me the house was empty. That the boy I was supposed to care for wasn't real. Just a doll. Just a job. But then I heard things. Felt things. The whispers in the walls, the way the air shifted like someone was always watching me. I should be scared. I should leave. But there's something about him-something that keeps pulling me back. Maybe it's the loneliness in his voice. Or the way he lingers in the shadows, waiting for me to see him. All I know is... I don't think I want to run anymore.

"When the fog rolls in, they change. And the whispers begin." Hoping for a peaceful escape from the chaotic city life, 21-year-old Lusia moves into a massive, ancient bungalow nestled deep within the misty mountains with her family. Surrounded by towering pine trees and breathtaking views, it felt like the perfect fresh start. But as night falls, the mountains fall dead silent. A thick, unnatural fog crawls down from the hills, swallowing the estate whole. And with the fog comes a freezing chill-and an ancient, dark ritual long forgotten by the world. It starts with faint scratches beneath the floorboards. Then come the whispers. But the true terror begins when Lusia notices her own loving family members smiling at her in the dark with blank, soulless eyes, doing things they would never do. Trapped in a house where the walls have ears and her loved ones are no longer human, Lusia realizes she is the only one left sane. To survive the night, she must uncover the dark secret of the bungalow before the fog claims her soul. Who can you trust when the monsters wear the faces of the people you love?

The first thing Zara Whitmore asked Malcolm Ashcroft after eight years was not how he had been. It was: Where's Adriana? She said it before she could stop herself. She had been saying it, in one form or another, for most of her life. Adriana Ashcroft manages the Ashcroft estate, plays piano like the room expects it, and has been watching Zara Whitmore from equestrian grounds since they were children. Zara is a first-year medical student with a forensic mind and a very specific problem: she has loved Adriana since before she had the vocabulary for it, and she has spent eight years pretending she hasn't. Then Adriana dies. And she doesn't leave. What follows is a ghost story that is also a love story that is also a murder investigation - set in the gothic town of Stonemere, where the Ashcroft family has been dying in patterns for three generations, and where a ghost who is fading a little more each day refuses to disappear before Zara finds out why. She kept the ring. She kept the diaries. She sat at 5:45 every day and waited. She waited for a very long time. f/f · sapphic · gothic · slow burn · ghost romance · mystery · literary fiction ⚠️ Content warnings: grief, death of a main character, loss of a parent, murder across generations, morally complex family dynamics.

thank you to my best freind mars for making the cover!!! **One Fright Night, a Lifetime of Love** At Black Hollow Haunted House, fear is the attraction, screams are expected, and masks hide more than just faces. For eighteen-year-old Ryker Radcliffe, becoming *The Joker* every October is easy. Behind the costume, makeup, and terrifying grin, he can be anyone except himself. Inside the haunt, he's confident.

With the help of Harmony's older sister, Zarabeth, and a loyal friend group that slowly becomes his own, Ryker learns that sometimes the bravest thing you can do isn't putting on a mask-it's taking it off. Because sometimes one fright night can change everything. And sometimes one fright night can become a lifetime of love. **A slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance filled with haunted house nights, found family, first love, laughter, and learning to be seen.**

After a brutal divorce, she moves into a quiet Surry Hills terrace with original floorboards and a beautiful vintage wardrobe left by the previous tenant. At first, the strange smells and footsteps at 3:17 a.m. seem like nothing more than an old house settling. But soon the wardrobe opens by itself. Her clothes return from the trash. And a voice that sounds exactly like hers begins whispering from inside the walls. When Emma tries to escape, the nightmare follows. The Tenant doesn't just haunt houses-it studies you. It learns you. Then it replaces you with something better. Someone calmer. Someone kinder. Someone everyone else loves more.

Some houses don't want new owners. They want improvements.
