"Thunder and solar eclipses used to be considered supernatural. It's only a label until a scientist proves it with their biased rulebook. Once they do, it just becomes nature. What if there was a different rulebook?" A PARANORMAL ROMANCE: Homesick for Georgia, Dana must wait three summer months in Benton for probate to clear on her estranged grandmother's estate or face losing her inheritance. Chased by a loan shark she owes a debt to, Dana turns to local mechanics, Paul and Luke, for protection. But when the charismatic brothers withhold secrets scarier than the criminal hunting her, she soon realizes Benton serves another purpose. The town plays by a different rulebook. Dead doesn't always mean buried. Her return may no longer be the coincidence she once thought it was, and the very essence of what it means to be 'free' becomes threatened. ************************************************ Copyright 2022 Sarah3534.

Mysteries of Riverwood by LMNTrix117

In the quiet town of Riverwood, nestled amidst dense woods, thirteen childhood friends once shared a bond that seemed unbreakable. Their camaraderie was forged in the innocence of youth until, at the age of ten, a chance encounter with a ruin in the heart of the forest changed everything. Within those ancient walls, they befriended a spectral presence, a ghost whose ethereal presence captivated their young minds. Tragedy struck swiftly when the ghost, once perceived as a friend, claimed the life of one of their own. Shocked and terrified, the group scattered, their once unbreakable bond shattered by fear and guilt. From that day forward, they vowed never to speak of their haunted past again. Years passed, and though some drifted away, the echoes of their shared trauma lingered in the shadows of Riverwood. As they turned eighteen and embarked upon their senior year of high school, whispers of disappearing townsfolk cast a chilling pall over the once serene community. Alex, one among the thirteen childhood friends, stumbled upon unsettling news: reports of inexplicable disappearances in Riverwood. Each month, another soul vanished without a trace, echoing a haunting pattern from their past. Driven by a sense of foreboding, Alex found himself confronting the specter of their haunted history once more. Amidst the excitement of the annual pep rally, the ghost's voice echoed through the crowd, sending shivers down the spines of the those friends. In that moment of dread realization, they understood that one of their own had become the latest victim of the ghost's vengeful rampage. United by a sense of responsibility and remorse, the group resolved to venture into the heart of the woods, determined to rescue their friend and put an end to the ghost's reign of terror once and for all.

For Always (book one) by JanaeMitchell

*** AMAZON BESTSELLER *** Malyn Reed meets and quickly falls in love with Beau Brogan, who seems to be perfect in every way... except for the fact that he died in 1910.

Beau Brogan has been dead for a hundred years. In life, he was a hard-working country boy who loved his family and stole the hearts of many southern belles. All of that came to a tragic halt at the age of nineteen, when his life came to an untimely end. In death, his spirit has been entombed in a ghostly existence of loneliness and misery he wishes would end... until the Reeds move in.

The Silent Shadows by Chercher246

In the small, isolated town of Briar Hollow, strange occurrences have begun to unsettle the once peaceful community. People are vanishing without a trace, and those who remain speak of eerie figures lurking in the dark, silent as shadows. The townsfolk are gripped by fear, unwilling to venture out after sunset. At the heart of the mystery is the abandoned Hawthorn Manor, a decaying mansion that has stood untouched on the outskirts of town for decades. Rumors swirl about its dark past, involving a family that mysteriously disappeared many years ago. Now, whispers of a curse draw curious outsiders and thrill-seekers, but none return the same-or at all. When 17-year-old Emily Weaver's best friend goes missing after daring to explore the manor, Emily is determined to uncover the truth. Armed with a mix of skepticism and desperation, she gathers a group of unlikely allies-each with their own reasons for seeking answers. Together, they delve into the chilling history of Hawthorn Manor, uncovering secrets buried deep within the town's history. As they piece together the puzzle, they discover that the manor is not just haunted by spirits of the past, but by an ancient, malevolent force that thrives on fear and darkness. The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their journey becomes, as the shadows seem to come alive, watching their every move. In a race against time, Emily and her friends must confront the source of the evil before it consumes them all, forcing them to face their deepest fears and uncover the long-buried secrets that could either save the town-or doom it forever.

The Ghosts of Melbrew [1/12] by LillianRS

BOOK NUMBER 1 OF 12 IN THE MULTIMAGICAL SERIES BY LILLIAN R.S. ☆☆☆ Emeline Orman was sixteen when she and her parents moved across the country to the coastline of Washington state. A small town known as Melbrew sat comfortably in the middle of thick woods, so tiny and unknown that it doesn't show up on any maps, making it the perfect spot for malicious activity to go unnoticed. On her first day of school, she met some rather weird people, who all shared a strange similar interest. This little group had quite the reputation for their knowledge of the town's not-so-secret dark history... as well as all of the unusual things that have been reported to them. It all started with the rich Humphrey family tragedy back in the 1800s, where for years it has been speculated that the mother killed her husband and children. Being very eager to get to the bottom of all the town's mysteries, one thing leads to another as discovery after discovery begins to pile up, ranging from random holes in the ground, to suspicious buildings in the middle of the woods. Secret doors, tunnels, and books that talk about nonsense seem like they lead nowhere, with no connections! Though perhaps the most mysterious oddity of them all is the otherworldly gateway surrounded by old fences, tied back to the founding family. ☆☆☆ • CW: Strong language, murder, and gore • 34 Total Chapters! • Total Word Count: 142,450 • PLEASE NOTE: This book is part of a series! It is the first book of 12. • This book is not my final product! This is just my way of easily sharing it with family and friends! I plan to edit and get published someday. Feedback and thoughts are appreciated, positive or negative! I will go back and edit/change things. • For more information on the Multimagical Series, check my bio! ☆☆☆

GHOST PORTAL (#1 GHOST PORTAL series) by StephRose1201

If you're triggered by something sinister, do you seek its meaning, or do you leave it alone? *** Small-town barista and occasional stray animal rescuer Jessamine Spencer never would have guessed that a video about missing paranormal show-host Amy LaRoya would rile her up so badly, to the point of having nightmarish visions of the house where Amy was last seen, and an ominous sense that she'd been there before. But when Amy's fellow paranormal host Avery Boomer turns up at Jessamine's coffee-shop asking questions, he discovers that Jessamine is in fact linked to Amy--because she WAS at the mystical house Amy was last seen at. The problem is, Jessamine doesn't recall any of the circumstances that led her to be there, nor how she escaped. And Avery needs to locate Amy, because her final footage seems to imply something was after her and might have gotten to her; something clearly supernatural in nature. If Avery convinces Jessamine to help him, will she recover enough of her memories to navigate to this mystery house, and hopefully find Amy there? Or is there more hiding in the forest--forces and prophesies that Avery and Jessamine will never understand? *** Join me as I share the new version of the first novel I ever *fully* wrote! Trigger warning for language, violence, sexual situations, mentions of suicide, possession, jump-scares, and overall disturbing stuff. Enjoy ♥
