For as long as she can remember, Beau has been able to see ghosts. The dead have always been as big a part of her life as the living. She has grown used to their presences, but can't shake the irritable feeling of being the only one who can see the ghosts and spirits that populate our world.
Out of her irritation, Beau decides to never acknowledge the spirit world around her. Her powers as a spirit medium as unwanted and unused. That is, until a body is found- an innocent man, murdered by a vengeful spirit. Beau must come to terms with her powers, for the sake of her town and those who reside in it. Two worlds are colliding, those of the living and the dead, and the only thing keeping them from destroying each other is her.

It becomes even more difficult when another, significantly more troubling talent starts to emerge: the ability to see ghosts. ***** Even though Quinn tries to ignore the spirits haunting the old college campus, they soon find themself inexplicably drawn to Vincent, a boy from the 1930s with a sweet disposition and a tragic past, and his rag-tag group of ghosts. Before they know it, they find themself on a desperate hunt for answers and artifacts from their former lives, aided by Luis, a charming coffin maker with a penchant for the paranormal who Quinn can't seem to stay away from. In the end, it all comes down to one question: to accept or not to accept their magic? Spoiler alert: caring more and more about the ghosts you're supposed to set free doesn't make things easier.

Ghostly.
Alicia and Chloe were two best friends with a weird past. Two seventeen year olds kicking a soccer ball around. As happy as they could be. The silence had killed them, almost literally. Standing opposite street ends and facing towards they froze immediately. Their trapped screams weren't heard by anyone as they were dragged out of their home. They awoke on a large beach, just the two of them. At least that's what they thought until they realised they weren't alone. Finding yourself standing above two familiar looking bodies isn't easy. Especially when those bodies are yours. Apart of the after life, these two girls roam. Earth has changed. Monsters lurking in dark alley ways and killers at every street. Vampires as friends? Good idea or not? They're whole world is gone and the last thing they can do is find out who killed them and why. Being a ghost is interesting but man, being immortal is complicated.Complete
Haunted
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]Complete
I Accidentally Summoned a Demon
"I know you're a virgin but have you never been touched?" He asked, sliding his other hand down onto her leg. "What makes you say that?" Kat breathed, bracing her hands on the counter. "You react like someone who's never felt another's touch," Nex whispered, slipping his thumb under the band of her shorts. "So, have you not?" Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band. "Should I answer its call?" #1 in demons on 6/15 -6/17/20! Again on 6/20 and 6/22-6/23! Sweet and innocent Katherine has a routine and is a little tightly wound.

And he's getting pissed off she won't give him a name so he can kill and go home.

"l'll tell you a secret" I said to my friend almost whispering, she leaned closer then looked at me interested. I sighed heavily before speaking.

I'm saying the truth, last time I remember I was drag racing and when I woke up I see dead people. Including the most beautiful girl, no I mean ghost and She's hugging me from my back while laughing as well. It's supposed to be freaking scary but how come I am enjoying it? "I must be really crazy" I mumbled to myself then sighed again heavily. "Yes you are" the ghost girl replied then poked my cheeks, Unfortunately I am the only one that can see her..

Riley's Excellent and Not-at-all Fake Exorcism Service
Most people's in-laws try to make their lives a living hell, but Riley's literally succeeded. Not only did they decide that selling their souls to demons was a good idea, they included Riley and her husband, Daniel, in the deal as well. Riley's life wasn't exactly perfect before, what with her failed writing career and not-so-great marriage. But at least she didn't have to worry about creepy demons trying to snatch her body! If it wasn't for the help of a demon named Thomas, she probably (most definitely) would have gotten possessed. Thomas, for reasons unknown, takes a shine to Riley, much to her chagrin. But beggars can't be choosers, and if Riley has any hope of stopping the demons plot, she has no choice but to accept this most peculiar alliance. Not that Thomas makes it easy, with his constant winking and cheesy smirks. To defeat the demons, they enlist the help of a priest named Lanh, who suffers from fainting spells, as well as Riley's instafamous bestie, Andrea. Together, they must work to stop the demon horde from body-snatching everyone and rescue her Daniel-in-distress. . . maybe her in-laws too, but only if they have time.Complete
