"The Other Side is with us every day. It is simply hidden behind the Veil, as we have said before. Only now you tell us that you actually believe us? And you're expecting us to help you with the mess that you have gotten yourselves into?"  -  Selina de Winter.

Our world is not as clear as we'd like it to be.  Thomas "Tom" Wells, Gordon Hausen, Jack Carson and Gregory Sulis had everything a teenager could wish for: good grades, were on the county football team, had plenty girls vying for their attention ... but also had talent for trouble. 

Othello Clan was a town notorious for ghost sightings, and its most famous house was Blakewell Manor. Halloween: school peers from their school had been falling into a coma; a couple of them ended up dead. Rumour quickly spread that they invoked the legendary ghost of folklore Bloody Mary.&nbsp;

Tom, Gordon, Jack and Gregory, who also appear to be tormented by the legendary spectre, are forced to ask help of the other end of the social spectrum - Selina de Winter, Lucrezia "Zia" di Angelo,  Catherine Kelley and Rose Paddock: the girls dubbed as "witches" yet hold the Old Talents.

Knock Three Times by SANunes82

Whatever you do, don't open the door! Recently separated wife and mother of two, Meredith Rhoads finds herself alone and without help when a stranger comes knocking at her apartment door in the middle of the night. She had not expected to see a child though the peep hole. A young girl with dead black eyes and a ghostly pale face stares like a sculpture and speaks without moving, begging to be let in. What she soon discovers is that this late night visit was not an isolated incident, but just one of countless reports of so-called Black-eyed Children attacks throughout her hometown of Belleville Ontario, and sadistic brutality seems in there nature. Family friend Det. Jennifer Jenson has been following the reports for some time, enlisting the help of a Vatican scientist and his priestly apprentice to discover the macabre meaning of these viscously cruel and seemingly impossible attacks. After a supernatural episode in school, Meredith's 10-year-old daughter Ashley knows more about the demon children than she lets on. Her visions are real and filled with vivid and unexplained images of burning witches, ritualistic sacrifice and the dead rising from the grave. It is in nightmares where a dark and ancient presence keeps close by, watching . . . waiting, as there is much more to the Rhoads family than meets the eye. As All Hallows Eve approaches a blood moon rises in a crimson sky, and a small group of unlikely brave must race against the clock, following the clues through a vast world of occult history and lore, secret societies and underground tunnels to discover the identity and grand purpose of the Dark Man. His legion of Black-eyed Kids have chosen the one night where every door opens for every child, and behind trick-or-treat masks are the dead eyes of the contagious possessed, and there will be blood. Trust no one, and keep your crucifix handy, because what is about to be revealed to the world cannot be unlearned, and will chill you to your very core.

Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist by OnceUponASonder

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

The Duns by magicmonster1000

READY TO READ <3 "...It was as if a spirit had taken control of my body. I was lifted into the air, my arms widespread, my head automatically tilted back. There was a bright, eye-blinding light surrounding me. I could hear the voice now. It said my name. And then, it stopped. Oh no. No, no, no! It was true. It is true. And the voice, as if it had been reading my mind, announced to the impatient audience: "Peter O'Connor. Exceptional fighting skills; Sharp hearing; No need to breathe; Element: Fire." On turning seventeen, Peter O'Connor, forced by his step-father, swears his loyalty to Oi Alloi, a secret society for men with powers and in the span of a single second is forced to admit that there lays a sleeping dragon hidden behind this already shocking community- a dragon who's silent slumber has lasted a year too long. To add on to it, an old enmity suddenly surfaces, a girl supposedly filled with love turns out to be filled with secrets, and of course, there's the loyal friend, who's not so loyal anymore. Cursed or not, these powers can either break him, or make him- save him, or destroy him- and the choice is only his to make... Best Ranking: #4 in Secret Societies

DELONIX [COMPLETED] by whathepeach

"Well," he suddenly informed, his voice a mere whisper that sent shivers down my spine, "facts about vampires include their ability to sense the desires of others from just a few distances." "And aside from those two whose desires are choking the place, another one lingers, and that's you, Red," he stated. I could feel the warmth of his breath, tantalizingly close, as it brushed against my ear, sending a rush of sensations through my body. "W-What?" "You know," he continued, his voice lowering even further, as if he was revealing a forbidden secret, "I can help with that, Red, leaving you breathless and craving more than you've ever desired in your entire life." ~~~~ Red Hathaway The girl with a seemingly normal life has gone through the ups and downs of high school. Teen movies, bullying, being called a freak - it's all part of the teenage experience, right?

Red must navigate her newfound identity, survive the perils that surround her, and make a choice between the allure of a werewolf and a seductive vampire as her potential lover. Join Red on this gripping journey as she unravels the mysteries of her existence and faces the ultimate test of her heart and survival.

The Spirit Academy by celestial_monkey

Bury A Friend by Carterwrites99

Ghost aren't real. And chics this cute don't tell you they are. It's the reassurance I told myself, which mostly didn't work cause it was a straight up lie. This book doesn't have effervescent, long haired fairy's or stoic vampires that smolder and fight. More like a judgmental grumpy teen weed dealer named Zach, who shamefully talks about himself in third person like this. And you won't find some grand quest up a mountain or into an unknown land rich with magic because I have asthma and no time for that shit. And lastly, there will be absolutely no hideous romance where instantly the girl of my dreams sweeps me off my feet. I get on her nerves far to much for that. Finding out I'm part of ancient group of mediums tasked with cataloging, fighting and cleansing ghost you would think has some upsides. But so far all that comes with it is cold chilled air that gives me the sniffles when they're around. I'd like to say by the end of this book I'll have conquered the monster and won over the girl, but as you read you'll learn that's far to much faith in a screwup like me. This book won't be for everyone, hell people die in it. But the good news is that if I die at least I'll be around, floating off of the pages to haunt you in your home. Actually that sounds like bad news so perhaps try and finish so you know if you have a ghost . *This story contains themes of suicide, sexual content, drug use and mature language. 🎶Look up the Bury A Friend playlist on spotify to play the songs at every number.🎶

The Death Thief by sylviaNgould

Del finds a murdered young woman, who soon rises from the dead as a zombie. Del is brought into a very special community living in happy isolation within the beautiful Whisper Valley. There creatures of myth and legend live together in harmony, following a strict set of rules that allow them to be who they are but also enjoy modern amenities like a steady Wifi connection and the latest smartphone. They all just want a normal life that's free from persecution by humans. For them, humans are instead seen as a commodity. Specifically they're known as the "Bodies" and they all have one year to either be sponsored or converted by one of the town's supernatural citizens. Del fills the vacancy left by the corpse in the woods, Calista Nightgrave. Calista should have been the next bride to a wealthy vampire, but instead she is a lowly zombie that's furious over the shift in her immortal afterlife. Both Del and Calista feel like something was stolen from them that fateful night, and they must work together to find the truth behind the death thief. *** Content Warning: Suicidal Ideation (Chapter 1: A Walk through the Woods) *** This is the first book in the Delilah Cross series.

Haunted by JuliaCoffin

The dead typically want one of two things. Ghosts crave conversation. Spirits seek pain. My name is Bria, and I've been able to interact with the dead for as long as I can remember. Communicating with the deceased might sound like a cool gift, but let me assure you, it's not. Ghosts don't shut up, and not all specters are friendly. In fact, most of them are dangerous. Pretending the paranormal doesn't exist is far easier than talking to the shadows, so I've been avoiding the dead for years. Past experiences have led me to avoid the living too. And for a long time, I've successfully kept my distance. Until a single ghost encounter in the library ruins everything. Now a couple of my classmates know my secret. But as it turns out, they have a deadly secret of their own. Time to talk to the shadows again. _______________ This story contains profanity and violence. [ONC 2021 Shortlister]
