Camp Twin Tails by Forest-Hummingbird

Marina and her twin brother Calder never wanted to be going to summer camp. Let alone some stupid camp named after twins. The whole thing was their mom's idea, Marina hoped it was a joke. She would much rather spend her time in their quiet lakeside home, instead of in an old cabin surrounded by yelling children. But there's something fishy about the camp directors Mr. Billie and Ms. Iris, and it's not just the large Queen Lake on the camp's property. Ghost stories here are all too real for Marina's liking. And the forbidden graveyard just passed the camp's boundaries makes them that much more believable. When paranormal things start happening--the kind straight out of a movie--Marina and Calder decide to find out for themselves what exactly is going on at Camp Twin Tails, and they're not the only curious new arrivals at camp. Can a bunch of kids really hope to solve a decade old mystery?

St. Mary's by luc444

With 5 other cabin mates, and one clearly hiding something, he sets out to uncover the truth. Even with Eli's alert anxiety he somehow finds himself in the middle of something very dangerous.

The Oakheart Massacre by ryleybaines

For the new summer counselors, this was supposed to be the perfect getaway: no parents, no rules, just bonfires, bad decisions, and a paycheck at the end of it. But when one of them disappears on the second night, the fun is officially over. At first, they think it's a prank. Then they find the blood. Now, with no way to call for help and something-or someone-hunting them down one by one, the surviving counselors have to figure out what's really going on before they end up just another campfire story. But the more they try to escape, the clearer it becomes-this isn't random. Someone has been waiting for them. Watching. And they won't stop until every last counselor is dead. Welcome to camp. Hope you survive the night.

Miss Marvelous: Chaotic Summer by MichelleT530

After finishing her first year of high school, Vanessa tags along with her foster dad Joe to The Acres, a retreat center in Watertown US, to deal with the new Rabies variant that's becoming a global crisis due to the wide spread of Albino Anacondas. During her stay at the camp, Vanessa makes some new friends, gets tangled in new life or death situations, meets a mysterious stranger, and taps into a stronger power she never knew she was capable of. Teaser: The closest one to me is in Watertown. After a minute or two of showing the list, the camera flickered back to the lady and she began talking about how the U.S government will deal with this new virus. Losing interest in the topic, I switched the channel to DisneyPlus and put on one of my top favourite movies; Doctor Strange. I love how the editors behind the movie made the effects SO realistic. Twenty minutes into the movie, I got a text from my friend Rachel.

I Want To Paint Your Lips by _ifeellikeshit

Evan's worked at the asylum for over a year, and had given up all other patients in order to take Delirious, a ranked 9.1 schizophrenic, full time. Delirious is known infamously for being completely unpredictable and childishly stubborn, and only ever able to be controlled by Evan. When curiosity mixes with unpredictability, Delirious manages to coerce Evan down the rabbit hole with him and choices have to be made that risk the lives of both men in the desperation to keep them both alive and (relatively) sane.
