The Untold Story of Sleep Paralysis
In the early morning hours, a young boy overhears a chilling conversation between his grandmother and his grandfather, whom he calls "Uncle." His grandfather recounts a terrifying experience from the previous night, claiming to have heard a giant bird crash onto the roof and flap its wings. The boy, intrigued and unsettled, struggles to dismiss it as merely a dream.
As strange phenomena continue to occur in his home, the boy begins experiencing eerie events of his own. He often finds himself staring at the walls in the dark, plagued by vivid nightmares and the unsettling sensation of footsteps approaching his bed. To fend off these nightly terrors, he starts sleeping with the light on.
One night, he awakens to find shadowy, human-like figures emerging from the darkest corners of his room, disappearing into the wardrobe. His heart races as he realizes he is paralyzed, unable to scream or move. The more he struggles, the more these sinister entities seem to feed on his fear. Among them, a particularly menacing figure looms, growing darker and more terrifying.
The boy's silent screams and futile attempts to move are met with the relentless advance of this dark entity. Just as it seems all hope is lost, he somehow manages to break free, leaping from his bed to the floor. His brother, startled awake, quickly turns on the light, dispelling the shadows but leaving a lingering question-was it merely a vivid nightmare, or something far more sinister?
Uninvited Encounter- is a true story that reflects the fear and nightmare of the author, Isaac Mahomed.
After barely surviving an attempt on her life, alchemy student Ariel investigates her new supernatural roommates as possible suspects. Nothing can prepare her for the secrets she is about to uncover about her own family-or her infuriating demon roommate's constant attempts to get under her skin.
Season 1 of The Wicked Series
***
Ariel is no stranger to bad luck. Life has been an uphill battle with an estranged father and a stepbrother who hates her. Studying alchemy feels like a dream come true, at least until Ariel suspects one of her new supernatural roommates might be trying to kill her. Refusing to be an easy target, she uses her alchemy skills to protect herself and dives headfirst into her own investigation.
When unsettling truths about Ariel's family and the world she lives in come to light, she realizes that those she suspects most might be her best allies. None of her newfound friends are quite what they seem-especially Haze. A demon of sloth should not be this hard to avoid, yet Haze defies all expectations, making it increasingly difficult for Ariel to deny the growing attraction between them. Still, the closer Ariel gets to finding out the truth, the more she fears her trust may have been misplaced.
