Shiloh's best friend went into the woods, and disappeared. 

Every September in Black Lake, Washington, a few senior girls wake up in the middle of the woods, in the middle of the night. No one knows how or why. 

Shiloh always suspected her best friend Madelyn would wake up out there.  Only the best wake up in the woods, and Madelyn shines a little brighter than other people.

What is a surprise though, is that within a week of waking up alone in the dark, Madelyn is gone. Her car is found abandoned on an old logging road, but Madelyn herself has vanished. The police are convinced that she ran away to California to find herself, that she'll come home in a few weeks, a little tanner and wiser. 

But Shiloh knows better. Something happened to Maddie in those woods, and she's going to find out what, no matter the cost.All Rights Reserved

Duskmore is a town famous for it's cryptid sightings and other strange occurrances; whatever type of creature you can think of, chances are that it was probably sighted there at one point or another! While it is strange in it's own regard, duskmore is no stranger to some of the wildest conspiracy theories and hoaxes. Within the town live a small group of nerdy teens: mindelynn clark (known by her friends as minni) the fandom-obsessed fennec fox who lives on a farm; weedix dankiels, the gardening fennec who tends to worry about everything; violet baker, the carefree and colorful lynx who acts as a big sister to the group and the cryptozoology obsessed russian blue, khilana orlova. They live a normal life for the most part until they notice strange behaviour in cierra fischer, the girlfriend of fellow duskmore high student gray jangmi......surely it could just be nothing....right?

Dead Man's Match by MusicalKehleigh

For years, Madelyn's worst fears have only resided in her head, feeding off her heightened sense of her surroundings and unfortunate experiences and accidents in her past. That's why her schooling is more than just assignments, tests, and high school drama. The Eralyn Academy of Secondary Education provides her with a once-in-a-lifetime chance to develop her special ability. It's her safe haven, a place where she can strive to one day control her ability and anxiety - at least, it is until things take a deadly turn. When Madelyn is dared to sign up for the school's joke of a dating app, she reluctantly complies. But when she arrives on the first date, she realizes that she's been matched with a dead man. Caught up in an investigation and ruminations running wild, Madelyn seeks to uncover who the real murderer is in a desperate attempt to outrun one increasingly deafening thought: Is she a killer? *Open Door Awards 2024 - Honorable Mention for Mystery/ Thriller 3x Featured: @Fright @Mystery & @Action Updates: Every 1, 3, & 5 Sunday

Curiosity killed the cat. Or at least that's what a young ghost woman, Grey, tells herself everyday, feeling the same tug to know more about the human world. There's only one problem: the lights. The same lights that has made her kind extinct and has made her avoid any humans in her building. She's managed to balance her survival instincts and her curiosity for so long. But one day she makes a single error that brings her closer to a human than she ever wanted to be. Now she'll have to give up the life she's made for herself or fight the light to save her home. Let sleeping dogs lie. That's what college dropout Justin tells himself everyday, ignoring the issues piling up in his life. He's made it work this long. But one day he comes across something totally out of place in his world, and it's only the first of many. Now he has to either accept there's a stalker living in his house, or that his mind is unraveling.

Feathers by skyebmewrites

They said it would be a relaxing week in the woods with friends. Graham thought returning home for the first time in eight years would be the hardest thing he'd have to do. Surrounded by whispers and gossip, he was more than eager to exchange the quiet a Pennsylvanian town for a luxury cabin in the woods. The group of college students had planned a celebration of sorts to send off two of their friends who would be leaving the continent on a research mission. At least, that's all it was meant to be, until someone went missing. Now, they'll deal with the whispers and shadows of the forest.

Raven's Heir | ONC 2021 honourable mention by jinnis

Sandrine is reluctant to take the job as a ghost hunter, despite her ancestral gift. And when she meets her boss and future partners, every fibre of her being tells her to quit-but she needs the money. How hard can it be to dispel the ghost of a bird? Soon, she finds herself fighting the advances of a medieval playboy, targeted by a flock of ectoplasmic ravens, and trying to solve the puzzle of the cottage in the lake. With disaster waiting around the corner, she truly has no time for a budding romance, right? ~ ~ ~ My entry for the open novella contest 2021. Prompts: No 5: There is a terrible drought ravaging the land, but when the waters recede from the local lake/reservoir, they reveal something no one expected to find. No 64. What should have been a simple task for a trio of ghost hunters quickly becomes something for which the term 'Worst Case Scenario' is the mother of all understatement. No 61. I would've lived longer if it weren't for Lorraine. There's only one issue... who's Lorraine?

Only Shadows by Cassandra_Wilde

What could possibly go wrong when exploring an abandoned mental hospital at midnight? Everything. High school student Izzy Sinclair thought tagging along on a ghost hunt would be a thrilling adventure. But when two of her friends mysteriously vanish during a live stream, the night takes a terrifying turn. With no one to trust and time running out, Izzy rallies her remaining friends to investigate the truth behind the disappearance. As they delve into the hospital's chilling history, they unearth secrets far darker than they ever imagined. Sometimes, the ghosts of the past refuse to stay buried. 𓄿𓄿𓄿 Trigger Warning and Genre: While this story does not fit cleanly in one genre as it has elements of drama, humor, romance, mystery, YA, and even sci-fi, it is rooted in paranormal horror. This means there will be some violence and gore. It's also rated mature for language, mentions of previous sexual abuse, and general teenage behavior. Thank you so much for reading! New chapters will be released every Friday!
