Mystery
✨Shortlisted for the WATTYS 2025!!✨ Lesley and Nick Livingston leave the hustle and bustle of the big city of New York. Trading in the daily sky-scraper sightings and the sounds of blowing car horns for serene days and quiet nights in the small, tranquil town of Arcaden in upstate New York. But little do they know, beneath the glistening waters lies a dark secret, a haunting mystery that is waiting to be unraveled. Their lake house was supposed to be a dreamy haven of relaxation and peace. Until the somber history of the house begins to awaken with the spirit of a dead soul. The daughter of the previous owners, Leah Meyers, supposedly drowned there. This tragedy doesn't deter Lesley, though; she's hopeful she can turn the lake house into a charming and cozy home. However, very eerie occurrences begin to unfold right before her eyes. Lesley senses an ethereal presence, and soon she is visited by a ghostly figure whom she believes to be Leah Meyers herself. Lesely feels unsettled, and her sanity slowly begins to fray. Her once promising photography career spirals toward collapse. Things go from bad to worse when Nick goes missing, leaving Lesley to grapple with both the haunted lake house, the strange ghostly sightings around Arcaden and Nick's disappearance. The clock continues to tick, and time is slowly running out. Will Lesley unravel the mysteries that are lurking beneath the lake house? And will Nick be found before it's too late?
