The Devil's Game by Echoes_Of_Desire

Five friends. One cursed ritual. Midnight is the deadline. It started as a joke - a dare whispered through a forgotten website, a ritual no one believed was real.

One by one, they're disappearing... and only one will survive. Amara thought she was brave. She thought she could handle anything. But the Devil doesn't just want obedience - it wants fear. It wants control. And it will play until the last heartbeat. Will she survive the night... or become just another name on the list?

Whispers in the Dark by Koine04

There are doors we aren't meant to open. Shadows we aren't meant to follow. Names we should never say out loud. This book is full of them. What you're holding is not just a collection of stories-it's a cabinet of whispers, a lantern lowered into places where the light doesn't reach. Inside, you'll find echoes of old folklore that refuse to die, modern horrors born from the glow of our own devices, and visions of futures that feel far too close to tomorrow. Some are short glimpses, sharp as a blade in the dark. Others sprawl long enough to trap you inside them. All of them are meant to unsettle. You may recognize some tales. The hitchhiker who never arrives at her destination. The children are singing a song no adult remembers. The figure at your window when you live twenty stories up. But here, the familiar turns feral. The safe stories you thought you knew will twist, growing teeth in the telling. Be warned: these stories are not designed for comfort. They're meant to crawl beneath your skin, to follow you after you've shut the book, to linger in the silence of your room when the night is at its deepest. Read them in daylight, if you must. But if you choose to read them in the dark, with only the sound of your own breathing for company-don't say you weren't warned when something in the quiet starts breathing back. Turn the page if you're ready. The stories are waiting. And some of them already know your name.

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 Tale of Tessa Crane (Halloween Chronicles #2) by NicoleLappe

Sleepy Hollow is a strange town, but that is to be expected. The only reason the town exists is because of a ghost story. Of course, everyone knows the legend of the Headless Horseman. Or, at least they thought they did. As it is with all fiction, there is always a little bit of truth in those stories. There was an Ichabod Crane, an Abraham Van Brunt, and of course, a Katrina Van Tassel. There was also a devious prank, but other than that, it was all made up. Too bad not everyone understood, that just because some of it was true, not all of it was. Tessa Crane, a descendant of the same Ichabod Crane that made her hometown famous, thought she knew the story, the real story anyway. It was her history after all. However, everything changes one fateful Halloween night. Tessa and Abraham "Ander" Van Brunt the Seventh, Tessa's rival and least favorite person, have no choice but to work together when they become targets of the Headless Horseman himself. It's a race against time to discover the truth of what happened between their families all those years ago. Will they defeat the Headless Horseman in time or will they both lose their heads?
