Cursed with clairvoyance, Millicent Sinclair has been seeing ghosts for years. More annoyingly, she can hear them, speak with them, and worst of all, feel their clammy, cold touch. She takes no nonsense from the dead (or the living, for that matter), but an overnight stay at the haunted 'Black Swan Inn' leads to more than she bargained for.

A short story for Christmas.

Monster by Tessalovesjem

Set in Victorian Poland is a tale about a stubborn young woman named Elsa whose father runs a society solely for vampyre hunting. Elsa does not believe in such tales, until she comes across a mysterious man at a ball interested in her mother's old pocket watch... and possibly her blood. When Elsa wakes and finds herself in an enchanted mansion and is not able to leave, she realizes that the man she'd danced with was no man at all, but a vampyre. Elsa is desperate to escape, but what she'll discover out in the world might just be darker than the mysterious, manipulative vampyre who has captured her... perhaps even darker. She could just discover herself, and not all discoveries are full of light. ~Had been selected and promoted by Crimson Peak Movie's sponsored reading list ~The perfect spooky, cozy Halloween novel you won't be able to put down

Killer Sunshine by Conie_Reigh

With ghosts that haunt her dreams and a past that won't let her go, her quest for normalcy is continuously foiled by the Mafia world that seems too enamoured by her to leave her in peace. There'll be sweet passionate love, and alluring lust. Heart wrenching heartbreak and utter betrayal. There'll be action and suspense. Split personalities and absolute madness that'll end in nothing but crimson rivers, and a sadistic smile to her bloody lips. Trust me, everything won't be as you predict it to be, and if you think otherwise, then I dare you to read it.

Reflected sorrows by Gothicwriter24

A lost, grieving soul enters the jaws of an insatiable beast, where the eyes of uncannily well-preserved paintings reach for her weary, lonesome corpse like crows. This mansion has no history to be felt or heard; it's as if the rooms are hollow and ravenous, their stale tranquillity broken by irregular draughts that send shudders down her spine as oppressive as the clattering of a needle to the floor. There lie secrets. Secrets and betrayals. In the mirrors, familiar faces crawl out from their eternal doom to grasp her pale skin and whisper trenchant advice into her ears with a sickly tongue, hearing her heartbeat like the ticking of a clock; candles that breathe within her. Those faces have lain so long in wait among the stitches and threads of madness, waiting for her arrival. Though the hours crawl onwards, she remains, watching and listening to the whispers of sorrow that lurk behind her at every acrimonious gust of wind howling through the mouth of the great beast. What awaits her within these halls, engulfed in oppressive, potent mists of grief? Who may she meet in the reflections of trembling malady? Through it all, that face haunts her every step. Yellow skin and seething eyes. Ink-stained and bloody. Cackling as insidious as death. Woeful as grief.

They know the place is rumoured to have a monster roaming its halls, but what harm could a short stay do? They'd be leaving as soon the clock struck one. But 'it' won't stand for that, oh no. Their brief visit swiftly turns to chaos when nightfall arrives on its silver horse. The manor's innocent façade is melting away, the children are being hunted down and their guardian finds himself entangled in a dangerous wonderland of illusion and trickery. For whom does the bell toll? Don't look 'it' in the eye. And don't trust yours either, robotic or not. [ If you so desire to open this book, please do so at your own risk, dear reader.
