What they find lurking in the ruins of the drowned village of Amberfield is no folk tale - a monstrous truth hides behind the myth of the Tooth Fairy.

Lincoln City: Season 4 by 365Shane

He died. He came back. But some debts can't be paid in the grave. Shane is back in Lincoln, trying to piece together a normal life after surviving a war with angels. But his resurrection didn't just mend his wounds-it tore a hole in the veil. Now, his very presence is a beacon for things that lurk in the shadows, and his quiet city is on the brink of a new, terrifying era. A new demonic force, more intelligent and personal than any he's faced, begins to dismantle his life from the inside out. An ancient, forgotten god awakens with a claim on the city's Roman stones. A vengeful vampire, a ghost of a past hunt, begins to rally forces across the ocean, her sights set firmly on Lincoln. And through it all, the cryptic Trickster continues to pull the strings, teaching lessons written in blood. With his closest ally, Fiona, facing a crisis of her own, and new, powerful beings emerging from the city's long-buried history, Shane must confront a horrifying truth: to protect the people he loves, he may have to pay a price far greater than his own life.

The Seer by Seer84

A story that will have something for everyone. You will find a piece of yourself within the story? Dare to look yourself in the mirror? Within this story are my accounts of the lives I was forced into and the lives I fought to have. I was a victim of circumstance, one that had to take on many roles to survive. I played the role of an obedient son, a parent, a brother, a traitor, a protector, a monster, a god, a fool, and a saviour. When something shakes the world we live in and doubt festers, you see the infection spread like a wildfire. Our fate was sealed the moment they appeared, but the fight isn't over. I'm not ready to let go of the life I dream about, and neither is my family.

The Moon's Blood, the Forest's Curse by noro-i4

In a land where the forest whispers with ancient power, the Viravyn, a once-immortal race bound by the magic of their gemstone eyes, were the protectors of the earth and its secrets. Each gem carried the strength of nature itself-wisdom, time, strength, and fate. But when the Kingdom of England, driven by greed, attacked their peaceful homeland, the Viravyn's fate was sealed in blood. A promise made after the first battle kept them safe for a time-but the heart of man, consumed by avarice, would not be denied. The king, hungry for their power, broke his vow, launching a merciless attack on the Viravyn as they slept. Only one survived the massacre: Araneth, a mother from the Thalwyn Clan, who fled with her unborn child. In hiding within a small village near London, Araneth concealed the truth of her people, her eyes hidden from the world. She raised her daughter, Neravyn Solalith, teaching her how to survive in a world that would never accept them, even as the scars of their lost heritage festered within her. But when the soldiers return, hunting the last of the Viravyn, Araneth's final sacrifice ignites the spark of vengeance in her daughter's heart. Now, Neravyn must journey into the heart of the forest that once belonged to her people. The curse of her bloodline will lead her toward the truth of her mother's sacrifice, the truth of the gems that bind her fate, and the truth of a revenge that will burn the world to its core. The forest waits, the moon watches, and the blood of the Viravyn calls.

Lavender and Ash by AtekaSaeed9

In a world where survival is measured by firelight and steel, a lone man with nothing but a knife and a stubborn will finds himself stranded in a wilderness filled with more than just hungry beasts. When night falls, and the cold sets in, an unexpected visitor steps into the glow of his campfire-a deadly, beautiful woman with a haunted past and sharper blades than his own. Lira is a ghost from a war no one wins, a survivor forged by blood and ash. She should have killed him. Instead, they form a fragile alliance, bound by necessity and something more dangerous: trust. As threats close in-creatures of claw and shadow, enemies from forgotten pasts-they must fight side by side to survive. But the greatest danger may not come from outside the firelight... it may be what they spark within it. A survival romance laced with grit, slow-burning connection, and unforgettable characters, Ash and Blue explores what's left when everything is lost-and who you might become to protect it.

In the rotting underbelly of the Nowhere lies a maze of sewers where shadows play tricks, and the water carries secrets no child should hear. Six lost children: Null, Princess, Light, Jail, Knight, and their little Nome called Chunks stumble into this forgotten place, desperate for escape. But the sewers are not empty. Lurking in the dark are the Sewer Toys. Distorted reflections of the children themselves. They are familiar and strange all at once, cruel mirrors stitched from fears, lies, and wounds the children hide. Void, Damsel, Dusk, Prison, and Knuckles move like predators through the pipes, whispering truths no one wants to admit. Every step forward drags the children deeper into themselves, and deeper into danger. Survival will not come from running, but from confronting what the Nowhere has carved into their souls. In a world where innocence rots and hope drowns, the greatest terror is not what waits in the dark... but what already lives inside.
