What if the stars have been speaking to us all along... and now they want an answer?
The cosmos has a voice. Dr. Nora Fields is the only one who can hear it-and it knows her name.
Disgraced astrophysicist Dr. Nora Fields arrives at the remote Lighthouse Cove Observatory with nothing left to lose. Her radical theory about cosmic bodies communicating through wavelengths made her a laughingstock in the scientific community. This crumbling facility on a storm-swept mountain is her last chance at redemption.
But something waits for her at Lighthouse Cove Observatory. Something that has waited for centuries.
When Nora's equipment detects an impossible signal-a pattern that perfectly matches her discredited theories-she believes she's found vindication. Instead, she's stumbled into a trap centuries in the making.
As Nora deciphers the mysterious transmissions, she uncovers the observatory's true purpose and the dark secrets of Lighthouse Cove, a village founded by a cult that believed in communicating with "stellar intelligences." The signal grows stronger, and Nora begins experiencing frightening changes: vivid dreams of cosmic entities, unexplained physical transformations, and moments where she speaks in languages she doesn't know.
The entity reaching across the void offers Nora everything she's ever wanted-scientific validation, cosmic knowledge, and evolutionary transcendence. But previous "chosen ones" have all met horrific ends. As a rare astronomical alignment approaches, Nora must decide whether to reject cosmic intelligence and lose everything or embrace it and risk losing herself.
CELESTIAL ECHOES is a slow-burn supernatural horror short story where cosmic horror meets scientific ambition in a battle for humanity's future.
