Dear Adelaide, by KeeperOfTheSticks

On the night of her eighteenth birthday, Adelaide Cottlethorne slipped in the tub. At least that's what they tell her replacement. Cottlethorn Manor is a house where time stands still. Where memories are never lost. And days are never broken. The family that resides there is perfect. Doll-faced. Porcelain. Well, almost. With anticipations, they await their new daughter dearest. The one to wear the locket. The girl to fill the shoes. When Olivia arrives at their doorstep, flustered from the eyes in the leaves, with a suitcase in hand, she wants nothing more than a blank slate and a chance to gain a last name. Upon meeting the family that waits behind closed doors, she swiftly takes on the role of the Cottlethorne's perfect new daughter. There's just one rule: "No Mention of the Past". But when Olivia begins recalling someone else's memories, that are somehow replacing her own, strange melodies, footsteps in the ceiling, and golden visions of blood-filled tubs, she also begins to suspect that nothing at the manor is quite as "perfect" as it seems. The family will not speak a word of Adelaide's death. In fact, no one seems able to recall it happening in the first place. They instead, all seem focused on what they refer to as "the most important day of all". Olivia's eighteenth birthday is coming up soon. And she is beginning to forget her own name.

The Tragedy of Eden's Gate by Maeve-Ashford

When a dark situation leads Theo to the quiet village of Eden's Gate, where the residents are odd and the pool of friends severely lacking, he's less than thrilled. The town is a miserable means to an end. And, to make matters even worse, he's pretty sure the house is haunted. Cold spots, flickering lights, a shadow that won't stop following him- a recipe for a haunting, and for a complete disaster. Sam is a vengeful spirit, cursed to walk the halls of his own murder scene for the rest of eternity, doomed to an afterlife of dismal solitude. And then his favourite resident goes and dies, the house is given to new people, and Sam discovers - quite by accident - that the boy sleeping in his room can see him. And he is the only one who can help Sam solve his murder. ───── • ⋆⋅⛧⋅⋆ • ───── Status: Complete Story length: 40,000 words ONC 2023 Prompt: • They were not real, everyone told me they were not real.

The Perfect Tenant by PaigeTurner360

The guesthouse was supposed to be Emma Lawson's sanctuary. Instead, it became her personal hell. With each passing day, the line between reality and paranoia blurs, leaving her to question not just her sanity, but her very identity. Desperate for a fresh start, recently divorced Emma moves into the Spencer family's charming guesthouse. The arrangement seems perfect: reduced rent for occasional housekeeping and babysitting. But perfection, Emma learns, is often a carefully constructed facade. Whispers of a vanished tenant. Odd behaviors from her seemingly kind landlords. A gnawing sense of being watched. As Emma unravels the neighborhood's dark tapestry of secrets, she's forced to confront the skeletons in her own closet. In this psychological labyrinth, everyone has something to hide - and Emma's past may be the key to unlocking a truth more twisted than she could ever imagine.

The Fires of Vidar by harrypanther

Supernatural/Modern AU. Finding three mysteriously dead teens causes Sheriff Snotlout Jorgensen to call in his cousin and his band of supernatural investigators. Unexpectedly finding themselves in the past, Hiccup has to solve the mystery or they will all share the dead teens fate. Sequel to 'The Spectre of Raven Point' A/N: Halloween again and I couldn't resist the opportunity to deploy paranormal investigator Hiccup Haddock once more. Of course, there are no more spooky lighthouses in need of exorcism but a spooky house, some mysterious murders and a century-old wrong should keep him busy. Enjoy!
