**"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.

The Diary of Tomorrow
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?Complet
The Laws of Stalking
WARNING: Contains mature content for 18+ audience. *** Fear isn't enough for Keir Blackstone. He wants to own her, to slip under her skin and take root, to make sure she never breathes without whispering his name in the dark. Seraphine Aldridge is perfection. Composed, brilliant, and untouchable, she moves through life like a queen among pawns. Threats don't shake her. She's faced ruthless prosecutors, greedy corporations, and men who think power belongs to them. Until him- her stalker. He doesn't want her to run; he wants her to know she can't. That no matter where she goes, she will always be his. Every step, every breath, every terrified gasp already belongs to him. So, she listens to fear for the first time and hires a bodyguard. Keir Blackstone is the perfect choice-silent, lethal, dangerous in all the right ways. Just not in the way she expects. There's something about him that unsettles her. The way he looks at her. The way he seems to know her every move before she makes it. The way he seems more interested in her than in keeping her safe. The way his presence feels less like protection and more like possession. And when she looks at him, she swears she sees something familiar. Little does she know, she just hired the very monster she's trying to escape.
Forever In My Nightmares (Darkiplier)
"I looked around with a start as I woke up, the taste of iron in my mouth. Looking down at my hands, I realized they were covered in blood and my gut twisted. Was it mine, or someone else's? When did I do this? I wondered if the nightmare I'd had the week before was a warning that this would happen. I needed to figure out what was going on. But how could I do it when I was blacking out every second?" When Mark starts blacking out and waking up in random places, having unknown nightmares, and disturbing violent thoughts, he fears that Darkiplier could be on the rise. Fearing everything he's ever known and loved is at stake, he tries to save himself and his friends through isolation. However, when his darker feelings start hitting to close to home, he begins to question himself and his own actions. He had to save everyone from himself, even if it meant war.

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.

"SUMMER CAMP IS OVER, BUT HUNTING SEASON HAS JUST BEGUN" Thirteen years ago, a malevolent monster infiltrated minds, poisoning memories and corrupting happiness. Now, it returns with friends, plunging the small town of Woodbury into chaos. Isolation becomes survival as twisted nightmares stalk the streets. Lock doors, bar windows, and prepare to fight. Death is the only escape, but killing may be the key. Seven teenagers search for a lost outcast, unaware that their only hope lies with unlikely allies: an escaped convict, a private detective, and the enigmatic Whisperers of Wolfe Kreek. As the hunt intensifies, the Whisperers' cryptic warnings echo through the forest. "Heed the warnings of the Whisperers of Wolfe Kreek," they say, "and you'll pay the price, die twice." The clock ticks down, and the fate of Woodbury hangs in the balance. Prey and predator are not predetermined roles; they are choices. As the darkness closes in, the teens must confront their inner monsters. Will they become predators, embracing the primal urge to kill, or cling to their humanity in the face of unspeakable horrors?

The House That Whispers
It wasn't supposed to be a rescue. It wasn't even supposed to be real. A drunken dare. A reckless chase. A twisted game. Harry and his friends entered the house with one thought-to take what wasn't theirs. But the moment they crossed the threshold, the game turned against them. The doors locked. The walls shifted. Their desires became chains, their laughter swallowed by silence. At first, they thought it was a man-a monster lurking in the dark, toying with them. But the deeper they went, the more the truth clawed at their sanity. The house was alive. And it wanted them to suffer. Time unraveled. Lust turned to regret. Hunger turned to madness. Their mistakes tightened like a noose, and soon, Harry found himself losing more than just his way. He was losing them. And the house was still watching. Because no one leaves until it is done with them. The House That WhispersComplet
