POE is the #1 Amazon Bestselling Horror and Fantasy novel by J. Lincoln Fenn. Described by Publisher's Weekly as, "a delightful, bravura piece of gothic pop," it won the 2013 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award for Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror.

It’s Halloween, and life is grim for twenty-three-year-old Dimitri Petrov. It’s the one-year anniversary of his parents’ deaths, he’s stuck on page one thousand of his Rasputin zombie novel, and he makes his living writing obituaries. But things turn from bleak to terrifying when Dimitri gets a last-minute assignment to cover a séance at the reputedly haunted Aspinwall Mansion.

There, Dimitri meets Lisa, a punk-rock drummer he falls hard for. But just as he’s about to ask her out, he unwittingly unleashes malevolent forces, throwing him into a deadly mystery. When Dimitri wakes up, he is in the morgue—icy cold and haunted by a cryptic warning given by a tantalizing female spirit.

As town residents begin to turn up gruesomely murdered, Dimitri must play detective in his own story and unravel the connections among his family, the Aspinwall Mansion, the female spirit, and the secrets held in a pair of crumbling antiquarian books. If he doesn’t, it’s quite possible Lisa will be the next victim.

"A delightful, bravura piece of gothic pop…fans of Neil Gaiman and the aforementioned Buffy will be immediately taken, but there’s a literate edge to the pyrotechnics that makes for an unlikely and welcome marriage between the spook story and literature of altogether less ectoplasmic substance." —Publisher's Weekly

"Hitting the high notes of multiple genres, her talent is wicked raw and proudly untamed. This is Fenn’s first novel [and] I can’t wait to see what comes next." —Bloody-Disgusting.comAll Rights Reserved

Demon Host by Jessie_Summers

The last thing that I saw, before all that darkness had consumed me, before everything turned to a deep hole of nothingness and a raging fire. Was the spread of bone wings, torn at the ends like the world had rejected it's very existence. And i was just a host to fill up that nothingness derived into a whole pit of darkness. After a life threatening incident, Dianna Keith discovers her life has taken a huge turn over that could destroy everything she's believed and dreamed of. And as the story goes by a young fiery spirited girl, she realizes she can never have the life she used to have before. Not when there was a tormenting darkness inside of her. Not when she was possessed by the ruler of hell. *** (Book #1- The possessed series) ||REVISED AND COMPLETED VERSION NOW AVAILABLE ON GOODNOVEL! || 🏆1st place winner at the NAA (paranormal) awards 2020. 🏆2nd place winner at the EWA (paranormal) awards 2020.

A Drop Of Haunted Blood [PREVIEW] [WATTYS WINNTER 2023] by auroraanorth

[PREVIEW ONLY] WATTYS WINNER 2023 | Sixteen-year-old Felix Carver carries the ghosts of magicians in his blood. He can communicate with them and use the magical abilities they wielded against monsters when they were alive. His newfound power would be pretty cool, if the ghosts in question weren't his family and the man who killed them. Death doesn't stop Felix's siblings from finding new ways to annoy him from beyond the grave, nor his parents from doing their best to protect him from the dangerous side of his new life. Felix learns that his family belonged to an organization of magicians called the Bright Guardians, while their killer was a part of the Guardian Uprising that tried to overthrow the organization eight years earlier. The Bright Guardians take Felix in, hoping they can train him to fight monsters and control the ghosts living inside of him. Felix barely understands the magical world his family kept secret from him, but he does make friends with other odd cases at the Bright Academy. Troublemaker Arisa Tamura is struggling to control her ability to animate objects while under the influence of cursed bracelets, while the smart but reserved Mason Briggs is a witch who was transformed into a demon as a last resort to save his life. Together, the three of them realize that Uprising spies are still hiding among the Guardians. They have no idea who they can trust, but they do know who they can't: a Guardian named Ernest Abernathy, who stole a powerful wand from Mason's parents before killing them. Felix, Mason, and Arisa must construct a plan to steal back the wand without any help. If their plan fails, Ernest will turn the Guardians against them and have them locked up, or executed. If they succeed, they'll have one more weapon in the fight against the Uprising's army. Either way, the approaching war is inevitable. Be warned this book contains death, violence, and an above average amount of spiders.

Felix Reynolds, a university student with a sixth sense, has to uncover the truth about the past he has no memory of in order to unravel what really killed his family, and keep himself and his friends alive in the process. ***** Felix Reynolds is your typical nineteen-year-old guy - least if you don't account for the whole seeing dead people thing. He swears it's not as exciting as it sounds, and it's nothing too scary either. That is, until he starts university. His sister, Annabel, who happens to be dead, has helped him manouvere through life fairly easily up until now, but not even she can explain some of the strange things that are starting to happen. After meeting someone else who claims to be a spirit talker, things start turning really weird, really fast. Mysterious entities start following Felix, other spirits begin giving him grizzly warnings, and the accident that killed his family and wiped his memory may actually be nothing of an accident at all. Felix Reynolds is your typical nineteen-year old guy, but he can't keep up that charade much longer. ***** (Book One of The Posies Trilogy) ★ Watty Awards 2019 winner ★

The Medium (Liminality #1) by MRGraham

It begins with the breaking of a gentle monster. Lenny is a defective vampire. Shy, insecure, and literally unable to kill, he tries very hard to avoid notice until the night he is kidnapped by a creature far worse, a vicious abuser determined to turn him into what a vampire ought to be. Worse, Lenny is also a medium, a creature born for the sole purpose of aiding the dead, and Sebastian is definitely a dead thing in need of help. Trapped by Sebastian's lethal mind control and by the compulsion of his own dual nature, Lenny's only hope is Kim, a practical young wizard tasked with hunting Sebastian down, but her ancient and powerful family is not nearly as accepting as she. Perhaps she can save Lenny from his captor and from the spark of violence growing inside him... Don't want to wait on the next chapter?

Monster by Tessalovesjem

Set in Victorian Poland is a tale about a stubborn young woman named Elsa whose father runs a society solely for vampyre hunting. Elsa does not believe in such tales, until she comes across a mysterious man at a ball interested in her mother's old pocket watch... and possibly her blood. When Elsa wakes and finds herself in an enchanted mansion and is not able to leave, she realizes that the man she'd danced with was no man at all, but a vampyre. Elsa is desperate to escape, but what she'll discover out in the world might just be darker than the mysterious, manipulative vampyre who has captured her... perhaps even darker. She could just discover herself, and not all discoveries are full of light. ~Had been selected and promoted by Crimson Peak Movie's sponsored reading list ~The perfect spooky, cozy Halloween novel you won't be able to put down

"I'm sorry, I can't let you leave, but I need you to trust me. Our lives depend on it." Lily Bron was a sophomore in high school in the year 2000, living the average lifestyle of a teen girl. Though as the school year went on, things started becoming strange and unfamiliar, and it wasn't until the fateful day on which she met the stuck-up Jason Marrow that her whole life fell apart. It was then, in her most sensitive state, that Jason showed and guided her unwillingly out of her childhood home, and into the world that wasn't supposed to exist; a world of demons, werewolves, and angels, and Jason turned out to be one of them, along with Lily. When everything was taken from her in such a short amount of time, Lily realized that someone she knew who was long lost in her memories needed her to fulfill his plan of destroying the human race. And she was the key to the dark magic he needed. When all her childhood memories were fake, she found there was someone who had been searching for her for over six hundred years; someone who was grieving the loss of her and would not stop until she was found. The same teenage man who vowed to protect her from her fate, Jason Marrow. (if you want more of the story, please tell me and I will add more.
