A prequel novella to the Autumn Brody series, available exclusively on Wattpad!


Before room 308 was assigned to Autumn Brody, it belonged to Nikki Lang…

Nikki Lang has never fit in with the “it crowd”.  Bullied and shunned by her classmates, she turned to alcohol three years ago as a way to belong with the other misfits.  After a near-fatal drinking binge, her parents shipped her off to prestigious Casteel Preparatory Academy, an arts-centric school with a behavioural reform program.

For the last year, Nikki has been spiraling down into the depression she used to self-medicate.  Little pranks in her dorm room have turned more sinister.  Nightly calls from a mystery man breathing heavily persist, despite Nikki changing her number.  Sleepless, scared and strained to her limits, the news that young women with scarlet hair have been disappearing from Casteel for years has her on edge.

Nikki doesn’t know it yet, but she’s about to get her passive wish:  two days from now, she’s going to die.

Shedding new light on the ghosts of Casteel, Pretty In Scarlet is a standalone complement to the Autumn Brody series, featuring fresh clues and familiar characters.All Rights Reserved

The Vampire and The Ghost | ✔︎ by SammyE9

[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Shatter by Ivy2927

Scarlett and Sylvia Rose are now in their sophomore year of college - and are as opposite as twins can be. Sylvia is known for going to dozens of parties and hanging out with her friends, Yvaine and Peace. On the other hand, Scarlett feels comfortable in her home, binge-watching movies with her best friend, Luna. When Scarlett finds a purse on the bus and heads to the owner's house to return it, she's met with someone who she never expected them to be. Her sister, Sylvia, is dragged into the situation, and both of them are trapped in the curse that's been going on for hundreds of years. Will they be able to survive? Read this gut-wrenching story to find out! Btw this story is actually based off of me and my friends in real life! And yes, Scarlett and Sylvia in real life are actually twins. Also this is random but I drew the cover myself. Not too bad, I guess. Best rankings: 29 in Dolls 302 in Paranormal 20 in Creepy Stories 882 in Murder 610 in College

Haunted Rayne by AnneMcKae

There's only one problem: The campus is haunted. »»-------------¤-------------«« "Like a starting pistol for a track event, this thriller should snap readers to attention and propel them headlong until the end." - JK Donahue HIGHEST RANK: #3 Mystery - Feb 2019 FEATURED: Wattpad Picks - Editor's Choice, May-August 2019 • @Mystery's Trending List • @Fright's Gothic & Eldritch List AWARDS: 2019 Futhark Awards, "Most Engaging Characters" - Horror/Thriller • 2019 Black Cat Awards, 1st Place "Horror" • 2018 Annual Medley Awards, 1st Place "Paranormal, Horror, and Mystery" »»-------------¤-------------«« It's been one year since Rayne Foster killed a young girl in the middle of the street, and after months of endless therapy, she still doesn't remember it happening. The psychiatrists at Aurora Hospital finally approve her transfer to Maria J. Westwood Correctional, a glorified reform school for the wealthiest teens in America; the steep tuition pays for a fresh start, wherein students can graduate and receive forged diplomas from blue-ribbon schools across the nation.

That is until one night, she discovers a young boy on campus who can see them too. Could it be she's really not alone?

Rayne is determined to unlock the school's secrets in order to save her peers, whilst uncovering the secrets of her own past as well...

Haunted by JuliaCoffin

The dead typically want one of two things. Ghosts crave conversation. Spirits seek pain. My name is Bria, and I've been able to interact with the dead for as long as I can remember. Communicating with the deceased might sound like a cool gift, but let me assure you, it's not. Ghosts don't shut up, and not all specters are friendly. In fact, most of them are dangerous. Pretending the paranormal doesn't exist is far easier than talking to the shadows, so I've been avoiding the dead for years. Past experiences have led me to avoid the living too. And for a long time, I've successfully kept my distance. Until a single ghost encounter in the library ruins everything. Now a couple of my classmates know my secret. But as it turns out, they have a deadly secret of their own. Time to talk to the shadows again. _______________ This story contains profanity and violence. [ONC 2021 Shortlister]

Hue - Archaic #2 (Sample of Published Book) by ReganUre

You know her name. You know her story. You know her secret. She isn't like any other girl, not anymore. Jared Walker complicated everything; he told her his secret, stole her heart and showed her a whole new world. She knew then that she'd never be the same again. Ava Delaney is no longer human - she doesn't know what she is. She should probably figure it out. But there is much more important stuff that she needs to learn first: how to keep her new secret, how to fight and most importantly... how to survive a war that's older than time. She's not like any other girl, not anymore. * Please note that this is only a five chapter sample of the published book.

SHATTER by MeredithHale5

"He leaned in so close that for a second I thought he was going to kiss me. Then he pulled back and remained quiet for a little while, until he spoke in a low voice. "Marie, there's something I need to tell you." While average teenage girls have to deal with the stress of pop quizzes, cheating boyfriends, two hours' worth of homework, and choosing which Instagram picture makes them look the skinniest, Marie is far from a normal teenage girl. She has no idea what is happening to her as she tries to convince herself she's either going crazy or that these new abilities of super strength, sense, and controlling the elements are just unusual signs of puberty. Things start to get even more crazy when Adam Keller, an incredibly attractive new boy, tries to tell her she is the heir to the most powerful line of witches and that it's his job to train her to use her powers. Marie somehow finds herself in the middle of a love triangle and is forced to face conflicts that make her whole world shatter. What will Marie do when she confronts having powers, killing demons, and trying to avoid a boy that makes her heart flutter? Will she be able to walk away from everything she has ever known? I wrote this book when I was in middle school and high school. It was published my senior year of high school. You can buy it on amazon and barnesandnoble.com. I will be posting the prologue and first chapter to give you an idea of what it is about. This book is meant for middle schooler's and early high schooler's who enjoy paranormal romance, a strong witty heroin, and action.
