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 ♥

Outline of 'Small Town Spirits' by sunlake

When I was fourteen-years-old, I planned this whole story out about a girl who could see spirits of the dead. I never ended up writing this book, but I still have the plans and in my short stories, I often allude to things that happened in this novel. For the benefit of everyone, I have decided to share my chapter outline just so you have context on what is occurring. Just for reference, all of Lea's parts take place in 2016-17, Olivia's parts take place in the early 1970s, and Eve's parts take place around 2007. Enjoy!

As she unravels the mystery of the manor's past, Emma finds herself drawn into a dangerous game of deception, where someone in the village knows more than they're letting on. And as she gets closer to the truth, she realizes that the shadows of Alderwood are not ready to let go of their secrets-or her.
