Sometimes, moving to a new place can be both exciting and scary, especially if it's in a different country. But for sixteen-year-old Hannah Owens, the idea of living in England and getting to know a different culture is a great experience. Though from the moment she and her family arrive at their new home, there's something slightly odd about it that she feels but can't quite place at first.
During their first week in Stoneley, strange things happen. Hannah finds herself awakening continuously from a horrible nightmare, followed by the sound of bathwater running at ungodly hours of the morning. As the days go by, things get even creepier. And with the exception of her younger sister, her family seems completely unaware of what's going on.
Determined to know why this is happening, Hannah starts a little research of her own. She discovers that a supernatural presence inhabiting her house is behind these occurrences and wants her to find the person who murdered them a year ago.
With the help of her new friends from school, they all try to piece the puzzle together and search for clues that might lead them to the perpetrator. But as the friends look for answers, Hannah doesn't realize the killer is actually closer than she thinks, and that they will do just about anything to keep her from finding the truth.

The Tragedy of Eden's Gate
When a dark situation leads Theo to the quiet village of Eden's Gate, where the residents are odd and the pool of friends severely lacking, he's less than thrilled. The town is a miserable means to an end. And, to make matters even worse, he's pretty sure the house is haunted. Cold spots, flickering lights, a shadow that won't stop following him- a recipe for a haunting, and for a complete disaster. Sam is a vengeful spirit, cursed to walk the halls of his own murder scene for the rest of eternity, doomed to an afterlife of dismal solitude. And then his favourite resident goes and dies, the house is given to new people, and Sam discovers - quite by accident - that the boy sleeping in his room can see him. And he is the only one who can help Sam solve his murder. ───── • ⋆⋅⛧⋅⋆ • ───── Status: Complete Story length: 40,000 words ONC 2023 Prompt: • They were not real, everyone told me they were not real.
