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.

The Perfect Tenant by PaigeTurner360

The guesthouse was supposed to be Emma Lawson's sanctuary. Instead, it became her personal hell. With each passing day, the line between reality and paranoia blurs, leaving her to question not just her sanity, but her very identity. Desperate for a fresh start, recently divorced Emma moves into the Spencer family's charming guesthouse. The arrangement seems perfect: reduced rent for occasional housekeeping and babysitting. But perfection, Emma learns, is often a carefully constructed facade. Whispers of a vanished tenant. Odd behaviors from her seemingly kind landlords. A gnawing sense of being watched. As Emma unravels the neighborhood's dark tapestry of secrets, she's forced to confront the skeletons in her own closet. In this psychological labyrinth, everyone has something to hide - and Emma's past may be the key to unlocking a truth more twisted than she could ever imagine.
