**"The Watcher in the Dark"**  
*by FG. Capote*

Ethan Bishop thought his new job as a night security guard in the affluent, gated community of Nautical Heights would be easy-a quiet post watching over wealthy homes. But as the nights wear on, strange things begin to happen. Shadowy figures move just beyond the edge of his vision, whispered voices call his name, and unsettling events blur the line between dream and reality. As paranoia grips him, Ethan must confront the possibility that something far more sinister than boredom lurks in the darkness, watching him from the shadows. Is it all in his mind, or has he become prey to a malevolent force beyond comprehension? 

The more Ethan uncovers, the more he questions whether he can survive another night-or if the real horror lies in never being able to leave.

SELF PUBLISHED. BUY NOW ON AMAZON https://a.co/d/hPXh35A What if you could read tomorrow's events today? When Ethan Carter, a skeptical freelance journalist, stumbles upon an old, leather-bound diary hidden in his attic, he thinks it's nothing more than an heirloom from his late grandmother. But when the pages start filling themselves with entries-describing his future in unsettling detail-Ethan's world tilts into nightmare territory. At first, the diary seems harmless, even helpful. It predicts small events: a spilled coffee, a forgotten phone call. But as Ethan follows its entries, the predictions grow darker... and deadlier. Each page drags him deeper into a chilling reality where time bends, shadows move when they shouldn't, and a sinister entity watches from the corners of his vision. When a cryptic stranger warns him to burn the book before it's too late, Ethan hesitates. The more he reads, the harder it is to stop. His best friend Harper tries to pull him back, but when the diary predicts her death, she begins to fear him as much as the book itself. Now, Ethan is trapped in a horrifying paradox-does he obey the diary and risk becoming its pawn, or defy it and face the unknown consequences? As the final entry begins to write itself, one truth becomes clear: The story was never his to tell. He was always part of it. Fans of The Silent Patient and The House of Leaves will be riveted by this psychological thriller infused with supernatural horror. Can you trust your own fate when it's already written?

25 parts Complete

Mark Stevens was just trying to get home after a long business trip, but when he spots an old, abandoned stroller on the side of a dark, empty road late at night, everything changes. A mysterious woman, standing eerily still beside the stroller, seems to watch him as he passes by. Haunted by the encounter, Mark tries to forget what he saw-but the horror has already followed him home. As strange and terrifying events begin to plague his family, Mark realizes this isn't just a ghostly figure-it's something far more sinister. His daughter, Emily, starts talking to someone who isn't there, and Mark soon discovers a chilling connection between the woman on the road and his own family. The more he uncovers, the deeper he's pulled into a nightmare that refuses to let go. Who is the woman with the stroller? And why does she want Emily? Mark must confront the deadly secret buried in his past before the curse consumes them all.
