Desperate for answers, Mike embarks on a journey into his family's past, discovering cryptic journals and the mysterious disappearance of a man named Abraham Dunn. What begins as a search for the origins of his nightmares soon leads him to a decaying house on the edge of town, where shadows flicker in the corners and whispers echo in the night. With the help of his friend Sara, Mike unravels the chilling connection between his bloodline and a malevolent force sealed deep beneath the earth. But the shadows grow stronger, and the line between nightmare and reality begins to blur. To save his sanity-and his life-Mike must confront the terrifying truth about "the source" and find a way to sever the curse. But some bonds are not so easily broken, and the darkness may be closer than he thinks.

The Beautiful Trapped Ghost (BWWM) by KassandraVivu

Liam left everything that he knew behind, his house, the neighborhood he lived in, and the city that he knew. Why? Because he needed a change. He needed a fresh start; he couldn't handle the gossips anymore, the neighbors whispering behind his back, the failed relationship that ended with a heartache for him and not his ex. He needed to be in a new area where no one knew what happened; no one knew the suffering he went through. So what does Liam do? He packs his things, sells his house, old furniture, and buys a new home in an area he's never even been in or heard of. Everything should go perfectly, right? This fresh start. Not quite, Liam has an unwanted guest in his new house, and this guest doesn't want to leave; she seems to be telling him that it's her house and not his. She's mistaken; this house was Liams. After all, he's purchased it for an excellent price and has moved all his new things in there. She's the one that needs to go, not him. So why is it that Liam is unable to kick her out of his home? Why is it that she won't leave?! or is it that she can't go. Strange things start to occur in Liam's new home, something that shouldn't be happening, spooky things, things that would happen in horror movies, and Liam doesn't know what to do. He starts to panic; he's the only one panicking; the unwanted guest, on the other hand, just stares at him with a smile as she throws her head back, letting out a chilling laugh. "We'll see who ends up leaving, because I am not going anywhere." She says.
