Suddenly, the elevator lurched to an immediate stop. 

I snapped my head up to look at the doors. They didn't open. To my surprise, the buttons for each floor on the antique button board were all lit up at once. The lights flashed once before shutting off, leaving me standing in the darkness. I cursed aloud and began pressing buttons quickly. Had the elevator really just broken down?! 

"Hello!?!?" I shouted out. Hopefully, someone downstairs could hear me and go get help. I pressed the red emergency button several times, yet the lights never came back on. "Fantastic." I muttered dejectedly as I slumped back against the wall. 

The air suddenly dropped down to a freezing temperature, and I saw my breaths come out in light gusts of white. My eyes had begun to adjust to the darkness, and I looked around the empty space of the elevator with a feeling of trepidation. 

Was it....was it back? Here? Inside the elevator with me? I stood back up to my feet and shouted again in anxiety this time, "Hello, can anyone hear me! I need help!" 

All at once, an ice-cold hand clamped over my mouth. A body pressed up against me that I couldn't see at all. My heart lurched in fear at the weight of it, even though I was looking at the other wall of the elevator perfectly. 

"Shhh." A voice whispered next to my ear. The invisible hand slowly left my mouth. Then there was a kiss. An invisible, freezing cold kiss.

In the small, isolated town of Briar Hollow, strange occurrences have begun to unsettle the once peaceful community. People are vanishing without a trace, and those who remain speak of eerie figures lurking in the dark, silent as shadows. The townsfolk are gripped by fear, unwilling to venture out after sunset. At the heart of the mystery is the abandoned Hawthorn Manor, a decaying mansion that has stood untouched on the outskirts of town for decades. Rumors swirl about its dark past, involving a family that mysteriously disappeared many years ago. Now, whispers of a curse draw curious outsiders and thrill-seekers, but none return the same-or at all. When 17-year-old Emily Weaver's best friend goes missing after daring to explore the manor, Emily is determined to uncover the truth. Armed with a mix of skepticism and desperation, she gathers a group of unlikely allies-each with their own reasons for seeking answers. Together, they delve into the chilling history of Hawthorn Manor, uncovering secrets buried deep within the town's history. As they piece together the puzzle, they discover that the manor is not just haunted by spirits of the past, but by an ancient, malevolent force that thrives on fear and darkness. The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their journey becomes, as the shadows seem to come alive, watching their every move. In a race against time, Emily and her friends must confront the source of the evil before it consumes them all, forcing them to face their deepest fears and uncover the long-buried secrets that could either save the town-or doom it forever.

What should one do when they find themselves suddenly in 1899? This was certainly not a question Aria ever thought she would ask herself-not yesterday, not today, and certainly not on the 2nd of October 1899. After all, she is just a junior journalist at an independent media company with dreams and passions, living a simple life. She is determined to make a difference by telling people's stories and giving a voice to the voiceless. What she truly seeks is normalcy and happiness, hoping to move past the trauma that has haunted her for the last ten years. But everything changes when she purchases an antique silver box from a mysterious stranger who speaks of fate. Ignoring her warnings, Aria wakes up overnight as a 21-year-old aristocratic lady in a world where societal norms confine women to strict codes of behavior. With her modern sensibilities clashing against the rigid expectations of 1899, she meets historical figures she had only heard about in her father's history lectures, making her question the nature of her new reality. As she navigates her new life, Aria must contend with a pestering mother eager to see her married off, a bickering elder brother who constantly challenges her, and a pair of ocean-blue eyes she just can't seem to look away from. Torn between two worlds, Aria must confront questions of destiny, family, and love. Will she fight to return to the life she once knew, or will she embrace the possibilities of a life she never imagined?
