How were they taken? Where are they being kept? And most importantly, why? The answer is as simple as it is horrifying. The creator of a new serum called Phobia needs test subjects. And if she can't get volunteers, she will just take them by force. Detectives Jon Cartwright and Isaiah Sanders willingly take the case. But they soon realise they are in over their heads.

Trapped in a room and injected with the serum, the teenagers begin to lose their grip on reality and are unable to tell fact from fiction. Minutes turn to hours. Panic descends into paranoia. Bonds will be tested and broken. And their worst fears will come to life. [Featured on @mystery, @fright and @newlywrittenbooks] Amazing cover by @FireOpalDani

Obsession | ✔ by Tabitha_Blackwell

He watched her wordlessly. She was beautiful in his eyes. She wasn't like the others he had previously killed for joy, for satisfaction. She was without a doubt made for him, he thought. Her whole existence was for him. Only him. He grinned from within the shadows. Soon he'd have her for himself. Soon she would see him and feel the same way. This, after all, in his eyes, was destiny. P.s. There is a prequel/sequel up on my page, Obsession is more like the side story that goes with it. It doesn't matter which one you read first. Warning: some violence, blood and gore in the beginning. Thank you for reading. Highest- #10 in mystery/thriller - #8 in torture - #1 in dark themes

Beyond the Frame by Crimson_Skii

When Detective Evie Graves is called to a prestigious art museum to investigate the violent deaths of two restoration experts, she expects another tragic but solvable case. But as she uncovers the details of their untimely end, one chilling truth becomes clear: something far darker than simple human violence lurks in the shadows of the museum. A single painting-hidden away and left covered by a cloth-holds the key. As Evie dares to uncover its secrets, strange whispers begin to echo through the halls, and the line between reality and nightmare begins to fade. With every passing moment, the painting's influence grows, bending her mind, distorting her senses, and drawing her deeper into its madness. Is the curse real, or is it all in her head? Either way, Evie is about to find out-if she can hold on to her sanity long enough to uncover the truth.

Fear by Louisapoof

Psychological Horror and Slow-burn Dark Romance. 18+ --------------------------- It's been five years since that fateful Friday night. I remember it like it was yesterday. The night I was kidnapped.

He rewrote the rules of pain, of fear - and then, somehow, of love. If you'd told me I'd fall for the man who ruined my life, I would've laughed in your face. But reality doesn't always follow logic. He's given me this journal and I'm going to write my story. This is my truth. My confession. My war cry. Because what he did to me deserves to be known. --------------------------- THIS BOOK CONTAINS TRAUMATIC CONTENT!

If you are offended easily do not read. •.• I snuggled into the comfortable warmth of the fluffy pillow as I was eager to go back to sleep. The fan lullabied me into a hazy state. Suddenly, a heavy weight landed on my waist, pulling me from the tired daze. I leaned up in shock as my hands flung forward defensively to push whoever was on me off. With a strong force, my shoulders were shoved backwards and into the mattress. Grunts of struggle filled the room as we fought each other. The offender grabbed my wrists and held them firmly above my head with one strong hand. Sobs of terror escaped from my chest as a thumb caressed my cheek to wipe away the spilled tears. "P-please let go of me," I begged, trembling. "You are so beautiful." A man's voice spoke, his large hand leaving my face and traveling down my body to squeeze my pelvic region. "Stop." I screeched, my demand ricocheting between the four bedroom walls. The man growled darkly. "If you scream again, I will kill you." I nodded keenly in response to show that I would not challenge his threat. His hand slowly freed my mouth, testing if I would disobey him. He reached into his pocket. A knife, zip tie, and a rag were all revealed. The view made me realize that this could be my last chance to get help. If I did not call out right now, he would take me. I would not make it out alive either way. I let out a bloodcurdling scream loud enough to wake up the whole neighborhood.
