The Hollow Scream oleh BelleB22

The story follows Mara Halloway, an intrepid journalist, as she ventures into the enigmatic town of Mill Hollow, drawn by rumors of disappearances, strange noises, and a chilling scream that has haunted the town for decades. The town is not merely abandoned or eerie-it is alive, a sentient entity steeped in centuries of grief, fear, and trapped souls. Mara's investigation quickly escalates from observation to confrontation as she realizes the town itself embodies the scream, an accumulation of sorrow and loss. The deeper she ventures, the more she confronts manifestations of the town's collective pain, including haunting figures, shadowy forms, and reflections of trapped souls. Through courage, empathy, and relentless determination, Mara faces the core of Mill Hollow's anguish, ultimately striving to release the trapped spirits, including someone from her own past (Maya), and restore balance to the town.

The Medium oleh CjArcher

Seventeen year-old spirit medium Emily Chambers has a problem. Actually, she has several. As if seeing dead people isn't a big enough social disadvantage, she also has to contend with an escaped demon and a handsome ghost with a secret past. And then there's the question of her parentage. Being born an entire year after her father's death (yes, a year) and without the pale skin of other respectable English ladies, Emily is as much a mystery as the dead boy assigned to her. Jacob Beaufort's spirit has been unable to crossover since his death several months ago. It might have something to do with the fact he was murdered. Or it might not. All he knows is, he has been assigned by the Otherworld's administrators to a girl named Emily. A girl who can see and touch him. A girl who released a shape-shifting demon into the mortal realm. Together they must send the demon back before it wreaks havoc on London. It should be a simple assignment, but they soon learn there's nothing simple when a live girl and a dead boy fall in love. THE MEDIUM is the first book in the Emily Chambers Spirit Medium trilogy. Yes, that's *trilogy* - meaning not everything will be wrapped up nicely at the end of The Medium. There are 2 more books after it, both of which are published. Check out my website for details.
