dead ghost ghosts gothic haunted house houses paranormal people rock romance romances star stories story therapist whisperer

When Cassie Taylor talks, ghosts listen. She wants to heal their souls so they can leave earth. Brooding songwriter Luke Rivers wants to give his recently found daughter a normal home, but he discovers his new house in small town Wisconsin is haunted by a ghost with an attitude. His ghost whisperer has an attitude too—even before someone tries to kill her.

He wants conventional; she wants acceptance. No wonder she thinks men are hard and dead people are easy.

Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist by OnceUponASonder

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

Never by wolfess21

Life hasn't been simple for Lois in a long time - little did she know she was born complicated - her whole family were. Sometimes things happen for a reason, I mean if she didn't have Jessie inside of her (a reincarnated ghost) she'd probably never meet her soul mate Aiden or be able to help out Cameron the ruler of the dark part to the Afterlife; then again neither he or Aiden are the true rulers no that title belongs to someone else. The true leader manipulated Cameron, so now he basically has an army of ghosts willing, to destroy Earth and the whole of Afterlife so he can reshape it to his liking. As usual those who can see the dead seem to get sucked into the havoc, Lois and her friends are about to embark on a journey to save Earth, the Afterlife and possibly free Cameron...who knows you'll have to read it to find out. Oh and add soul mates into the mix and family - lovely recipe this. *Images used in the cover belong to their rightful owners, no copyright infringement intended*

The Other Side of Hollywood | Luke Patterson by kiki0626

"So welcome to the brotherhood, where you won't be misunderstood, life in good on the other side of Hollywood." Everything in Harper Paige's life was perfect; she had the grades, the talent, and even the perfect guy, but everything falls apart the day her boyfriend runs out on her, abandoning her to live out his music dreams. And to top it all off, a couple of months later, she dies, never able to resolve issues from her past or say goodbye to those she loves. Harper isn't sure what to expect from death, but returning as a ghost was not at the top of her list. Unsure what to do, she takes refuge with a fellow ghost offering her shelter and soon finds a family of her own; and sure, Harper could cross over, but life is much better on the Other Side of Hollywood.

To Love A Ghost || ONC 2023 Shortlist by KGreenwood

Prompt #23: They were not real, everyone told me they were not real. But why are they here? Why are they trying to talk to me? Why are they calling me the ONE? Why are they staring at me like that? *** When bored corporate 9 to 5'er Jace Palmer inherits his great-aunt Lorraine's flower shop in tiny River Bend, Wisconsin, nothing will stop him from realizing his lifelong dream of owning his own coffeehouse and bookstore. No matter what he must sacrifice to achieve it...his life savings...his marriage...and, as strange things begin happening in the shop and the apartment above it, his sanity. Jace is certain he's going crazy, but then one day the apparition of a young man appears before Jace's very wide-awake eyes, looking and speaking like an ordinary human. Except no human can vanish and reappear. No human can walk through walls and closed doors. And no human-not even his ex-wife-has ever stirred the feelings in Jace that he has for the ghost of Daniel Walsh. *To Love a Ghost is a paranormal small-town M/M romance explicitly written for ONC 2023. This story contains adult language, themes, and depictions of 1930's era as well as modern-day attempts at gay conversion therapy (which some readers may find uncomfortable or disturbing) and a rather unconventional HEA.*

ghosts by lotusdotpng

"Who are you and how did you get in my house?" By this point, I looked more human than ghostly. "I'm a ghost." I spoke. "Oh really? Then, if you're a ghost, this won't-" He swung his bat and it goes through my body. "go through.." He whispers and stumbles backwards. --------------------- fem!reader x shane madej she/her pronouns TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of suicide, death, etc. the one time that shane madej /will/ believe in ghosts. spotify playlist based on this book: "ghosts" by cosmodotjpeg (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4hzTo5ue3hghVQENgJ23lb?si=Esx9GMZ1Q_mjHQpc9bNiRQ&utm_source=copy-link)

The Apparition: An Andromache Jones Mystery (Short Story#2) [COMPLETED] by sammiscribbles

"The house is haunted, Miss Jones. Haunted. There is an evil ghost in my home and I want it gone!" Andromache Jones is a tarot-reading witch from the sleepy village of Bramblesgrove, where she runs River Gardens Mystical Services. From here, she gives tarot readings, casts runes, gazes lovingly at the moon and stars, plays with crystals and herbs...and sometimes solves crimes. She likes to think of herself as a part-time private detective who untangles mysteries, but really she is an amateur sleuth who happens to attract trouble - and troublesome clients. It's been three days since Andromache Jones suffered her ordeal at the hands of The Magician and she doesn't know what to do with herself. She doesn't think she is up to working. She is not very keen on the idea of getting out of bed. In truth, all she wants is to be left alone. Unlucky for her, Jean Pottersworth is very persistent. Does she have a case that might chase away Mac's blues? The Apparition is the second short story in the Andromache Jones Mysteries series. The first is The Magician (also here on Wattpad), which you might want to read before The Apparition but if you don't, it shouldn't effect your enjoyment of the story.

The Day I Live by OrpheusAngelos

(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. DISCLAIMER: no images/videos are mine unless I say otherwise. Everything else belongs to me. Please don't steal, I do work hard on my stories.

IF YOU TAKE INSPIRATION FROM THIS please credit me and show me your work! I'd love to see it!! ⚠️WARNING⚠️: This story contains strong themes such as: abuse, mature language, suggested sexual themes, violence, character death, and more!
