Shadowww1925
Cyrus Nightingale has lived in Addison Apartments long enough to know that some things are better left alone.
At sixteen, he's known around Nockfell as the sarcastic kid with purple hair, a collection of chains hanging from his jeans, and a habit of disappearing into abandoned buildings just to see what he can find. Most people assume he's reckless. They're not entirely wrong.
What they don't know is that Cyrus has been seeing ghosts for as long as he can remember.
The dead are everywhere. Lingering in empty hallways. Watching from apartment windows. Wandering through places no one else dares to go. Some are harmless, some are angry, and some know things they shouldn't. Cyrus has spent years pretending this is normal, carrying the burden of secrets he can't tell anyone and warnings no one would believe.
When a new resident named Sal Fisher moves into Addison Apartments, strange events begin to unravel old mysteries buried deep within Nockfell. Alongside his friends Larry Johnson, Ashley Campbell, Todd Morrison, and eventually Sal himself, Cyrus finds himself drawn into a world of ghosts, hidden truths, and horrors lurking beneath the surface of the town.
But seeing the dead doesn't mean he understands them.
And sometimes the things that haunt Addison Apartments aren't dead at all.
As the echoes of the past grow louder, Cyrus will have to decide how far he's willing to go to protect the people he loves-even if it means facing the things he's spent years trying to hide.
