When Miss Kitty Taylor is forced to move to sinister Galloway Castle, she expects nothing more than a boring, draughty old house in need of some serious cleaning work. But when events start to pan out with alarming similarities to her gothic novels, she soon realises that there is a much darker past for her to explore.
But is she really becoming a fairytale heroine? Or is every step she takes one closer to the cliff?

I hold the universe when I hold you
Hermione Granger is done, well, she still has one child to raise, but she is done with the rest of it. Her term as Minister is over, the time line has been saved, she finally got the divorce, and her Rose (too young to marry, in her opinion) is repairing the breach between Weasleys and Malfoys. Life should be wide open to her. And Draco Malfoy, widower, seems like he could be a good friend...until, for an inexplicable reason, she is made to travel through time again. Might it have something to do with Irma Pince showing up at Rose's wedding? Did it have to do with some cosmic joke that she arrived in 1997? She resolutely believes she is too old for this 'shit', but encountering 1997 Severus Snape in a place she did not expect, it, the universe, seems to start to give her the answers she needs.Complete
The Day I Live
(READ ALL BEFORE STARTING BOOK) This is unedited. After the death of a 24 year old girl she's reborn, but the world around her seems different. Not only does she have an entirely different family, she sees... dead people. (And maybe more!) Her family claimed she was crazy and a liar for saying she could see ghosts. It was a disgrace to their family and the family name. So, she was ordered to keep quiet about it. She couldn't say a word about her occurrences to anyone. Maybe she is crazy, but the events that unfold when she meets a group of "demons" help explain why she is who she is. All she had to do was find an abandoned crypt in the middle of the woods.

The Whispering Shadows
When a group of four friends embarks on a weekend trip to an abandoned mansion deep in the countryside, they expect adventure, laughter, and perhaps a few scares for fun. The Hawthorne Estate, infamous for its tragic history and eerie rumors, seems like the perfect destination for Amanda, the group's thrill-seeker. But what begins as an innocent getaway quickly turns into a descent into terror. As they explore the mansion, the friends discover that the house is far more than just a crumbling relic. Locked doors, shadowy figures, and disembodied whispers hint at a sinister presence lurking within the walls. An old journal reveals a chilling tale of a vengeful spirit trapped in the house after a botched ritual centuries ago. One by one, the mansion begins to unravel their minds, exposing their fears, secrets, and weaknesses. Strange phenomena escalate, and the friends soon realize they are not just visitors-they are prisoners. The house seems alive, manipulating time and space, ensuring no escape. Tensions rise as the group fractures under the weight of paranoia and supernatural interference. When one of them disappears, the survivors must unravel the mansion's dark secrets before it claims them all. Their only chance at survival lies behind a locked door in the basement, where the origin of the curse-and the malevolent force-awaits. In a climactic confrontation, they face the horrifying truth: the Hawthorne Estate feeds on fear, despair, and betrayal. The spirit's wrath is unrelenting, and the friends must decide whether to fight or succumb to the darkness. With an ambiguous ending that blurs the line between escape and doom, The Whispering Shadows explores the fragility of trust, the weight of guilt, and the inescapable power of the past. I hope everyone will like this story ❤️✨Complete
Tempris
[Watty's Shortlist & WATTPAD PICKS -- Up and Coming List 06.07.2018] Now Available on Amazon!!! His hands moved down to cradle her neck. "I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island.

But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.Complete

Something revived her that night in the Department of Mysteries, and she knows for a fact that her 'voodoo powers' - telekinesis, telepathy and teleportation - had nothing to do with it. Now, as the dark prospect of Year 6 at Hogwarts looms like a storm cloud in the distance, the struggling witch has much on her platter already. But as the secrets of her bloodline are uncovered, her summer takes an abrupt adventurous turn, revealing a far more complex family past than she could've imagined. Suddenly burdened with the knowledge of both the past and the future while juggling the present, Margaret has to not only tread very carefully on the thin line between good and evil but also help all those who do not deserve to suffer in the crossfire no matter what side they are on; including Draco Malfoy. Talk about tougher luck... Warning: probably also contains plot boo-boos like the inclusion of movie storyline :) 🏅 Best Title → The Brooklyn AwardsComplete

When Daisy gets a chance to appear in a Thriller/Mystery movie, she jumps at the opportunity. She hopes this role will allow her to shake off the Writer's Block she's been having on her own mystery novel lately, as well as visit her cousins in England, where the movie is being filmed. However, once the crew begins production, she gets this feeling that she and the other female actresses are being watched. When she hears about a ghost haunting the local bed-and-breakfast where she and everyone are staying, the staff informs her that the "Ghost" only shows up the week of Valentine's Day. Daisy, being a skeptic, does not believe in ghosts. Not even when said ghost follows her to her room that first night. Glen has been a ghost for almost two hundred years. Whenever he's not reliving his past mistakes on the night he died, he's at his death site, now a local B'n'B, watching guests mingle and so on. When Glen meets Daisy, he feels a desire for her, the likes of which he had never experienced when he was alive. So when she is staying at the Wynfrid House that week, Glen seizes his chance to share those desires with her. Even if it is only in her dreams. *For those who love The Temple of Snakes, this story is about Domino's cousin, who was mentioned in the first chapter. Domino, Mona, and their new families will make guest appearances.* P.S. Some scenes in this book can be interpreted as sexual assault and abuse. Readers, be warned.Complete
