Though she's spent most of her life under constant scrutiny and pressure, being the only child of the Sheriff, Jimmy Rayes, Julie hopes this day can be different.

But unfortunately, she's gotten herself wrapped up in a mystery bigger than she could ever imagine. A mysterious video has appeared online, where a Masked Figure claims to know the dark secrets of her home, the small mining town of Pleasantville, Wyoming.

The Bird People by WendyyWolfe

In 1600s Virginia, a small colonial village sprang up unceremoniously on the sacred burial grounds of the Native American people it was taken from, the Nottoway. Now, an ancient evil has been awakened in the form of Elementals known as The Bird People and it is suspected that the Nottoway Tribe has cursed the ground in revenge for being encroached upon by colonial settlers. After failed crops, still births, deaths, burnt homes and facing starvation, superstitions run rampant and the townspeople do the only thing they can think of in the late 1600s to appease these angry and destructive spirits. Give them an offering. It is quietly decided by the elders of the community, in an effort to keep these spirits of the bird people at bay, that every woman should give up her first born infant daughter to them. One such young mother cannot bear this resolution much less imagine giving up her only child. In order to keep her only child, a daughter, she makes a baby out of straw and gives that instead, bringing chaos to their puritan village. A cursed girl. The man who loves her. A questionable death.

My Mystery: A Teen Wolf Love Story [Wattys2016] by trashy_Fandom

Beacon Hills is a town of mystery. I lived in Beacon Hills for as long as I remember, and lots of very strange things happen. Like the lizard-man or Kanima. Strange kanji-marking demonic ninjas or Oni. Werewolves. Elemental Kitsunes. And then there's Banshees, which I am one of, I never knew I was until I was 15, and boy, I was surprised, I screamed. Broke 3 windows. Apparently, Banshee blood runs through my family. Being a banshee is the most hardest thing I ever have to go through, I have to ignore the crazy voices and sounds, and try not to scream. I wish something could make it easier. This is the story of MY mystery. My name is Julie Mason. **SIDE NOTE I wrote this book when I was like 13. So, it's kinda shit. I know. Reading it over again, I don't like the ending all that much, but it's fine, I guess. I just don't want to rewrite the whole book.**

Break Me // ONC 2022 by MissJina

On the outside Nore Mcguire was your average twenty-six year old High School Writing teacher. She had a lot of friends and didn't mind sharing a home with her eighty-year old Grandmother and her nine cats. But there was still something off. She sort of blames it on the stories her grandmother told her growing up about the night-walkers. Sometimes she thought she saw them, hoovering over people just before their death. She figured it was just her imagination and moved on, but that was until the new English teacher came to town. Jaime Donovan rode into town like a wild storm on a summer night. The ladies loved him. Nore found him attractive, sure, but he always found a way to get under her skin, and there was just something off about him. On the night of the Founders Day masquerade ball, Nore finds herself semi-plastered and dancing with one masked man the entire night. They danced and kissed the night away. She waited for her Cinderella moment to take place, but it never did, and that's because half the town was left for dead. And the next morning when the sun rose, things looked a little different. And now not only does she want to figure out who the masked man was, but she has to figure out why she was the only one to see creatures killing people in the daylight, when no one else could, and how to get rid of them for good. ----- Written for ONC 2022 - #66 & #23

The Vanishing Cheerleaders by Bl00mingTales

At Willow Creek High, blonde, blue-eyed cheerleaders are disappearing without a trace. The once vibrant school is now clouded with fear and uncertainty. For 21-year-old Emily Carter, the disappearances hit close to home-her younger sister, Ashley, was the latest victim. Determined to uncover the truth, Emily takes matters into her own hands. She dyes her naturally brunette hair blonde and goes undercover, joining the cheer squad to find out what really happened to her sister. Emily quickly notices something sinister: the school's bad boy, Cole Matthews, seems unusually interested in her. With his brooding looks and dangerous reputation, Cole has always given Emily the creeps, but now he's watching her more than ever. As he persistently asks her out, Emily's suspicions grow. But when her older brother, Jake, a 25-year-old police officer, suggests she take the risk and go on the date-armed with a hidden tracker-Emily agrees. What begins as a simple date soon turns into a nightmarish ordeal as Cole drives her deep into the woods. At a secluded cabin, Emily uncovers the horrifying truth: Cole has been abducting and murdering cheerleaders, including her sister. With her brother and the police closing in, Emily must use every ounce of strength and courage to survive the night and bring Cole to justice. But the scars of what she uncovers may never heal.

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting by NoppityNope666

"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.
