LOSE YOUR MIND by audreyantonia

Lydia never thought much of sage or spirits, until the night Jade sent her a voice memo: "Something feels wrong in the house. Heavy. Can you bring that sage stuff you always use?" What Lydia finds is far worse than bad energy. People start forgetting things. Shadows don't stay where they should. And Jade... Jade isn't always Jade anymore. As reality begins to crack and disappear, Lydia must face the unthinkable: what if the thing haunting her loved ones doesn't want to hurt them... but replace them? Look too long, and you'll lose your mind. A psychological horror about identity, grief, and the monsters that wear your face. ©AudreyAntonia; Nothing may be used elsewhere without my written permission. I own the copyright at all times.

Whispers in the Walls by ShingCedj

They told me the house was empty. That the boy I was supposed to care for wasn't real. Just a doll. Just a job. But then I heard things. Felt things. The whispers in the walls, the way the air shifted like someone was always watching me. I should be scared. I should leave. But there's something about him-something that keeps pulling me back. Maybe it's the loneliness in his voice. Or the way he lingers in the shadows, waiting for me to see him. All I know is... I don't think I want to run anymore.

Echoes Of The Abyss. by lanielisbon

Constance and Lorelei, inseparable friends seeking solace, ventured into the Appalachian mountains. The forest, thick with towering trees and hidden trails, soon ensnared them in its labyrinthine grasp. As daylight waned, their laughter turned to unease. Each path they chose seemed to lead deeper into unfamiliar terrain, shadows lengthening ominously. With no sign of civilization, panic set in. The rustling leaves whispered secrets of ancient darkness, and the distant echoes of wildlife became haunting cries in the twilight. Lost and desperate, Constance and Lorelei clung to dwindling hope, their friendship tested by the encroaching night and unseen perils.

Forgotten by BigDaddySweets

Some houses keep their silence. Some memories refuse to fade. And some stories are written whether we want them or not. Tom Richman never meant to stay in Blackridge. He was only passing through, another drifter with no plans and no place to land. But the town carries its own quiet gravity, and on the edge of it sits a house that seems to wait for him. Inside, Tom finds a diary whose words will not fade, whose ink feels too sharp, too alive. Drawn back night after night, Tom struggles to make sense of what he's found, and of the memories that rise in him as if called to the page. With each step, he moves deeper into the pull of a story that may not be entirely his to tell. This is a tale of memory, longing, and the weight of what lingers in forgotten places. Work in progress - chapters will be updated as they are written.
