Whispers in the Dark by SVSato

Fifteen years ago, Claire Harper fled her childhood home, determined never to return. The house had been a place of secrets, whispers, and tragedies-most notably, the mysterious death of her best friend, Sarah, found cold and lifeless in the basement. Claire left everything behind, including her fractured relationship with her sister, Julia. But when Julia goes missing without a trace, Claire has no choice but to return to the decaying house she swore she'd never see again. The police have no answers, but cryptic messages on her phone suggest someone knows more about Julia's disappearance-and about what really happened all those years ago. As Claire digs deeper, old memories resurface: the strange noises in the house, the feeling of being watched, and the creeping sense that something malevolent has always lurked within its walls. With each step closer to the truth, Claire realizes that the line between memory and madness is dangerously thin-and the answers she seeks might just shatter everything she thought she knew about her family, her past, and herself. In this gripping psychological thriller, Whispers in the Dark explores the dark recesses of the mind and the haunting power of buried secrets. Some truths are better left forgotten... but what if they're the only thing that can save you?

The Silent Shadows by Chercher246

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.
