Altered
In the small rural town of Sacherton, children have been going missing. Missing children, in general, were not difficult cases to solve, and they were definitely not worth nationwide attention in the media. What was different about this particular case, however, was that there was no evidence whatsoever as to how the children disappeared. There were no broken windows, off-looking people with masks, nor jammed door knobs. It was as if the children just turned into mist and evaporated in the middle of the night.Complete
What Lurks Beyond
On the outskirts of the small town of Duskwatch, the Mercer family lives a quiet life on their ranch-until something unnatural begins stalking them. It starts with strange noises in the night. A shadow watching from the treeline. Voices that sound eerily familiar calling from the darkness. At first, Wade Mercer refuses to believe that something evil has set its sights on his family. But when he sees a perfect copy of himself standing just beyond the fence, he knows this is no ordinary nightmare. Whatever lurks in the night isn't just watching them-it's hunting them. As the Mercer family fights to protect their home, they uncover the terrifying truth: this thing isn't a ghost, and it isn't human. It's something older, something that wears the faces of the living to lure them into the dark. And once it calls your name, you must never answer.Complete
