"Some unfinished business is more important than others. For some, that business is solved immediately after their death, so they're cleared to live the afterlife of their dreams. Of course though, in the case of murder..."
"You want me to solve your murder?"
"What? No! I mean, yes! I mean, I don't want to put the burden on you? Where did you even get that from that statement?"

When Eliza was accidentally locked into the Hot Topic she worked at overnight, she didn't expect to meet the ghost of a dead, emo teenager. More importantly, she didn't expect to investigate a crime that hit closer to home than she expected.

[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

A Cold Day In Hell
Five college freshman, each with a supernatural past they'd rather forget, have to work together to solve the murder of a stubborn ghost and keep their university from going to Hell. Literally. Heather once made a deal with the Devil, and was lucky to get out of it with her soul intact. Now she just wants to be a normal college kid. But her roommate is possessed and killed by a demon on her very first day. Donovan is a necromancer who no longer wants anything to do with ghosts. But this one ghost girl insists her murder is part of something bigger, and won't take no for an answer. When a cursed immortal offers to hire them to help solve the mystery, heather and Donovan can't refuse. As more demonic activity plagues the university, they must work with a knife-wielding demon expert, a supernatural tech genius, and a girl who cheated death itself to figure out what is stirring from beyond the grave. In order to free the ghost's soul and save their university, Heather will have to make one more deal with the Devil, Donovan will have to embrace his true powers over the dead ... and someone on their team will have to die.Complete
In Your Head: A Murdle Ghost!AU Fanfic
"Never enter a graveyard." That is the phrase Deductive Logico heard his entire life. Even more so than "stranger danger" or "brush your teeth." And sure, wandering alone unsupervised is not the best idea, but the reasoning everyone gave him? Ghosts. He never believed in ghosts, or anything supernatural for that matter. You live, you die, you decompose, and that is it. As someone who has been solving murders for the past year or so, it was a hard truth he had to face. Sure, this put him at odds with his rival: the esoteric Inspector Irratino, but nothing could convince him otherwise. So... what happens when things stop adding up? What happens when twenty years' worth of secrets start to unravel? What happens when nobody can see what he's experienced? Logico finds himself with information he should have no way of knowing, and even the basics of the world he lives in are thrown into question. Irratino has one last case for the deductive to solve... Can he do it?Complete
One by one
It wasn't very difficult to plan out my first victim. I watched them all day, studied their movements, listened to their conversations, and watched them fall asleep. The funny thing about it was that I was just a few feet away from them. But how could they have known? Why would they have to be scared for their lives when they were oblivious to how fast I could end them? When all goes wrong, nothing else can go right. A last week school field trip could cost you your life. But why think that way when the trip has yet to begin. When a group of five friends go on a school field trip to the woods, things seem normal until one of them goes missing.Complete

The person that was arrested for her murder is her ex-boyfriend, but he is supposedly innocent. When she goes back to Earth as a ghost to investigate the people closest to her, pieces of her fractured memories start to come back.
