"Trust your own instincts. Don't blindly follow the ritual. Not everything that looks like protection... is."
Some towns whisper through history, and some scream. Velmira did both-only no one was listening. Not until the new six arrived.
Salt lines the roots of the town. Mirrors are covered in every home. And names-names are never said twice.
They say one always walks out. Cleansed. Changed.
But at what cost?
Author's Note: Written between dreams and nightmares.

The Vessel
Disclaimer: This story contains mature themes and gory scenes. Read with caution. "There's something wrong with Ravenfield."

The air doesn't move like it should. Jade Dawson didn't mean to end up there. He just lost his way... but in Ravenfield, getting lost is never an accident. What he finds is a place rotting with secrets-old, horrific, and buried beneath ash and silence. The village has its own rules. It watches. It chooses. And once you're part of it, there's no going back. The Vessel is not just a story about a haunted village. It's about what happens when you're dragged into something ancient and evil-something that doesn't just want your fear... it wants you. Welcome to Ravenfield. Don't look too long. Don't listen too closely. And whatever you do... don't trust the silence.Complete

The Forgotten Trails
Eighteen people arrive at a remote mountain lodge - couples, friends, strangers- each drawn by different reasons: a vacation, a retreat, a break from life. None of them realize they've been lured there by something deeper than coincidence. Something ancient. Something waiting. As a snowstorm seals them in, unsettling events begin to unravel their reality. Hallucinations. Shifting memories. Sudden violence. The lodge becomes a trap, and one by one, they begin to fall - victims of forces none of them can explain. But this isn't the first time. Though they don't remember it, they've all been here before. In other lives. Other versions of themselves. And each time, the outcome is the same. There is a reason they keep coming back.
The Enemy Is Closer Than You Think
Amara has always carried bad luck like a shadow. Every man she's ever loved has died tragic accidents, freak occurrences, deaths that can't be explained. She tells herself it's coincidence... until the pattern becomes too deadly to ignore. Now at twenty-two, Amara is desperate for answers. Haunted by guilt and determined to break free, she begins digging into her family's past, uncovering whispers of a curse passed down through bloodlines. The deeper she searches, the closer death creeps-following her every step, binding her with an unseen thread she cannot escape. But the truth is far darker than she imagined. Because the enemy isn't a stranger, or even fate... it's something far closer. Something watching. Waiting. And it wants her next.Complete
The Pale March
They don't chase. They wait. And they already know your truth. After the world fell silent, after machines turned against the minds that made them, a new terror emerged: the Pale Ones. Human-shaped and ghost-quiet, they come not for the body-but for the secrets no one dares to speak. You don't see them at first. But you feel them. Like gravity. Like guilt. Ty Mercer has walked a long way from Fort McCoy, farther than most, and seen what happens when people stop. He's learned to keep moving, even when he can't make the full thirty miles. He's learned the rules-but not the reasons. When he crosses paths with a ragged group of survivors in the shell of an abandoned megachurch, he gives them a choice: walk south or wait to be unmade. Among them: a boy with a gift for sensing the wrongness others ignore, an artist who draws what shouldn't exist, a preacher clinging to fire and judgment, and a woman who's lost more than she'll ever admit. Together, they march-not just to escape the Pale Ones, but to outrun the truths that might doom them first. Because in this world, the ones who fall behind don't scream. They Whisper.Complete
