The Things We Couldn't Forget
Growing up with a nickname like Misery can seem like the worst thing to happen to a girl. That is, until you find out that your father is a serial killer. Ten years after escaping the town that would never allow her to escape her father's dark shadow, Missouri Jacobs returns to Faulkner Montana with one mission in mind. She needs to settle her family's estates, then she can take that money and start a new life, maybe even with a new name, someplace no one knows her or the stories that surrounded her family. However, returning to her childhood home brings back all of the memories Missouri has been spending years trying to forget. And a chance run in with a boy she once loved with all of her heart makes not drowning in those memories over and over even harder. All set to leave, Missouri wants nothing more than to put Faulkner and everything that happened there truly in the past once and for all, but then... Another girl goes missing. Then another. Then another. Wrapped in a fog of déjà vu and separating the present from her past, Missouri is determined not to be blindsided this time. This new killer might be playing games with her, but this time, she's going to be the one to end this all, or she'll die trying.Compleet

Mirror shows what stands before it but... It is not always true Remember not everything you see and feel is the TRUTH ----------------- He looked at her in the eye but quickly changed gaze when she turned to him. She grew suspicious and hesitated to even talk. Complete stranger but something felt like he had been seeing her since long, long enough for days, constantly, without a day break. As she took a few steps to the other side of the bus stop whilst waiting endlessly for a bus, he spoke, finally breaking the silence. "I like your perfume" Finishing with a hiss. Startled, her body began to shiver and she moved farther away. No one, literally no one was around at that hour of night. "I like it so much that, I wanna - Squeeze out of your body" Only this time he whispered right near her ear making her flinch and quickly darting back away from him in fear. "TELL ME WHAT DO YOU SEE???!" He screamed holding her neck down imobilising her. "Bl-blue-" She screamt and choked. He smiled one last time before taking out her last breath.Compleet

White Top Hats
It started when the rain fell. As it hit the windows rhythmically, I fought my sleep. Fighting off the demons in my dreams. I hadn't realized how real that dream became. Waking up to terrified screaming. My heart racing, the lighting striking and my family begging for their lives. I claimed myself as a coward that very same night. I hated myself. My depression became the best of me. What's worst then your family being slaughtered? Hiding in the closet from the killers. I should've helped, I should've been there for them. The pain between my chest and stomach was growing guilt. So I started thinking smart. Looking at everyone differently. I decided to reopen their cold cases. And when I found the truth it hit me deep.Compleet

Kidnapped from his real family to be experimented on. George gets dangled on strings by the killer puppet master and taken on a haunting journey never to be forgotten again.

So does a dark new world from the shadows. George learns the painful truth, and none of it is good. Nobody saw the real killer coming or expected that it could be someone they trusted.
