The Haunted National Park: A Tale from the Peter Wood Multiverse
When Peter and his friends sneak out late at night and wander off the beaten trail while visiting the Haunted National Park, they find themselves in the company of a deeply troubled soul whose magical powers threaten to spread her anguish and fury. Both of which manifest themselves in the form of an emerald green inferno. But as they race to help subdue the force of nature that they unwittingly awoke, Peter struggles with a surprisingly difficult question: should he race to alert the adults back at the campgrounds so that they can put an end to the rampage headed their way before she even gets there? Or perhaps he should run back off into the woods in search of the one person who could perhaps, save the woman from self-destruction. _________________________________________ This story is part of an anthology following different versions of Peter Wood and their friends during their misadventures in the Paranormal World. It's meant to be a preview into the world of the middle-grade series of novels that I've been working on for years now. That being said, the events of this anthology will be taking place in alternate universes so that I can still comfortably write the main novels without having to worry too much about how these side stories will fit into it all.Complete

Whispered Shadows
Years ago, a group of close friends ventured into the secluded Black Hollow Cabin for a weekend getaway. What started as laughter and camaraderie quickly turned into a nightmare when one of them, Emma, vanished without a trace, leaving behind only whispered warnings and shadowy figures lurking in the dark. Stricken with guilt and fear, the remaining friends fled, swearing never to speak of that night again. Now, years later, the past refuses to stay buried. Maya, one of the surviving friends, receives an unsettling invitation to a reunion at the same cabin on Halloween night. Against her better judgment, she joins the gathering, hoping for answers but dreading what she might uncover. As the group reunites, old tensions surface, and eerie occurrences begin: shadows that move without light, whispers that echo in empty rooms, and unsettling reminders of the night Emma disappeared. When one of the friends goes missing under similar circumstances, the group realizes they are being hunted by a malevolent force tied to their betrayal. With secrets unraveling and the shadows closing in, Maya and her friends must confront the truth about what really happened that fateful night. But the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: someone-or something-knows their darkest sins and won't stop until justice is served. In "Whispered Shadows," betrayal isn't the only thing that lingers. Whispers of vengeance echo through the night, and shadows of the past may be their undoing.Complete![Neverland [ ✓ ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/79967365-256-k251792.jpg)

Just Another Cabin In The Woods.
There's a cabin in the woods, and four teenagers. Oh did I also mention it's summer? I know how much more cliche can it get? Well, the answer is a little bit more, considering there's two girls, two guys, and maybe a couple evil spirits that need to be exorcised. But what happens as they find out the hellish secrets of the cabin, or what happens when the perfect couple in the group isn't so perfect, this cabin is more than a few evil spirits and these teens are more than just horny (well at least some of them are). What appeared as a quaint two story wooden cabin turns out to be so much more.Complete
