It's 1971, the world for people in New Orleans ain't nowhere near easy, but when the struggle took its eye off the Doucette Family for just one night, sisters Josephine, Annette, and S.Bonds get together and throw an old funky shakedown. Family, friends, ghosts, and murderers alike have gathered around their shotgun shack, and The Doucette family is thrown in a boiler overnight. By a stroke of bewitching, vengeance, and luck, the Doucette Family discovers The Kingdom on the Bayou-a place that takes the majestic history of New Orleans and places it in an enchanted swamp where nothing ever truly dies. Whispers, cuss words, and rumors fly through the wind in the Kingdom on the Bayou like beads from parades, and so does magic.

#TabulaTuesday
Magic is real. Ghosts are real. Eva Booker deals with the consequences as she always does. Having turned away from her criminal life at long last, Eva is starting with a clean slate in the small California town of Santa Margarita Cortona, along with her twin brother and a surprise niece. It's a decent life, even though the mistakes of her past have her scanning for threats all the time. But when her boss's young son drowns under mysterious circumstances, paranormal forces threaten to tear her fragile peace apart. Again. It can't be a coincidence that the Cult of La Llorona has come to town. Desperate to uncover the truth and protect her niece from becoming next in a line of missing children, Eva grudgingly reaches out to the only people who can help: her old acquaintances, celebrity paranormal investigator couple Nathan and Jamie, who helped countless people with their supernatural troubles in their hit web series Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations. Problem is, Nathan and Jamie left their series behind - for cushy jobs, a life of wealth and fame, and possibly some stupid secret reason they stubbornly refuse to share. And Eva setting up an investigation with them is bound to reopen years-old wounds on all sides. Forced together by tragic circumstances, Eva, Nathan and Jamie face a suspicious cult, the wicked weeping spirit it worships, and the many past and present grievances threatening their search for a killer. But can their uneasy coalition withstand an investigation demanding life-or-death sacrifice? ~Book three in the Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations trilogy, sequel to #FreakshowFriday~Concluida

Unleashed ↠ Elijah Mikaelson
"Are you mental? We have locked these kinds of people here for hundreds of years for a reason" "I know; but she is our last resort" In the years when New Orleans had been under the control of the Mikaelson's, the city had been split into the different supernatural factions; sending everything into chaos. In a desperate bid to gain the upper hand and/or form alliances, Elijah and his family sought to find the kind of people nobody ever talks about. They stumbled upon only one though; a witch who could not practice magic unless she took it from another. She had been pushed out into the outskirts of the town for being different. However; that was not the only reason, and the Mikaelson's would not find out until it was much too late. Now, with a combined threat to the Mikaelson family, they need to make the decision whether it's worth risking unleashing what they have locked away for years to finally defeat their enemy.

The Ghost Line
New Orleans, 1978. A city of jazz, secrets, and restless spirits. Detective Henry Calloway is a worn-down homicide investigator with a gift he never asked for - he can see the dead. The visions began when he was a child and have followed him into adulthood, into the badge, and now into the darkest case of his career. Every time he touches the dead, they whisper his name. His partner and brother-in-law, Detective Calvin Brooks, is one of the few honest men left in the New Orleans Police Department. A Black officer in the Deep South, Calvin carries his own battles - racism inside the force, corruption in the ranks, and the constant fear of losing the family he's built with Henry's sister, Evelyn. When the body of a young woman is found barefoot in the rain-soaked streets of the French Quarter - the third in a string of eerie, ritualistic murders - Henry hears her speak from beyond the grave. Others would call it madness. Calvin calls it a warning. Their investigation pulls them into the underbelly of New Orleans - smoky jazz clubs, forgotten cemeteries, voodoo parlors, and police halls thick with politics and deceit. Every clue draws them deeper into a web of spirits and sinners, where the living are sometimes more dangerous than the dead. Then they meet Celeste Duval, a hauntingly beautiful jazz singer who knows more about the unseen world than she admits. She feels the spirits too - hears their cries in the music she sings. And she knows Henry is not alone in his curse. Together, Henry and Calvin uncover a chilling truth: These killings are not random. The dead are trying to speak. And someone - or something - is tearing open the line between the living and the dead. The closer they get, the thinner that line becomes.Concluida
