Burnley Manor is a house which has been lost to time.
When Anne Montague accompanies her best friend on a trip to Barnet, the last thing she expects is to be catapulted into a love story that has spanned centuries. Her sheer presence in the house sets in motion events that are beyond her control, she feels things she cannot explain, knows things she couldn't possibly and people she had never met before recognise her. Before she knows it, secrets are unearthed that have consequences for her and all who reside at Burnley. And there is a small matter of a 500-year-old curse that threatens to destroy them all.
Can Anne save them before all is lost?

At the End of the Garden by BirdArcade
46 parts Complete
Marie Scarlet has started to learn that being in a relationship is not at all as exciting as she first thought. Even though she spends all day with her boyfriend, he is still inattentive, boring and most definitely frigid. But, with a little hope and advise from her best friend, she figured she could make it work. And while she doesn't believe in ghosts, the rumour of a long missing classmate's spirit roaming the school corridors provides her with the perfect opportunity to earn herself some attention from her boyfriend. Little does she realise that while rumours aren't always true, they usually come from dark and forbidden places. Places they won't talk about in her old-money paradise with the never-ending garden. Updates every Sunday and possibly on a Wednesday too!
Afterlife: Oblivion #Wattys2024 by astronomist
22 parts Ongoing Mature
You die. Game over? Not quite. Welcome to the Afterlife Crucible. Every millennium, lost souls battle for a second shot at life. Forget everything you thought you knew about the afterlife. It's not pearly gates and harps - it's a ruthless gauntlet dreamed up by bored gods with a sick sense of humour. Your regrets become weapons, your sins are armour, and your secrets? Just ammo for your rivals. This is a no-holds-barred war where only the most devious spirits get to breathe again. You'll face nightmares that make Hell look like Disneyland, and opponents who'd sell their own mothers for a chance to win. Ready to fight for your life... after death? I sure as hell wasn't. There I was, barely keeping my head above water, when some prick decided to punch my ticket early. But let's face it - my chances of winning are slimmer than my ex's conscience. Who am I? Jane Doe. Just another dead girl in a sea of corpses... a junkie, a fuckup, a waste of oxygen. Or so I thought...

Edward is no longer the man she remembers, and the manor holds a sinister secret that threatens to consume them both. As Eliza delves deeper into the mystery, the lines between love and horror blur.

Haunted Hearts by BritCYancey
28 parts Complete
After losing three fiancés in tragic accidents over the past six years, Lady Elphi Matson knows three things for certain: heartache only maims its victim when it should kill, not all haunted places are crumbling castles, and without a doubt, she is cursed when it comes to falling in love. Able to see ghosts since surviving a drowning accident at age nine, Lord Rufus Treadway works as a Private Investigator of the paranormal. So, when his closest friend Lord Roderick Matson pleads for help solving Elphi's curse, Rufus agrees to attend the Sanham séance, promising not to let Elphi know Roderick hired him and, for his own safety, not to fall in love with her. However, just like curses, some promises are meant to be broken.
