YOU'VE NEVER EVER HEARD A STORY LIKE THIS!

Welcome to Little Falls, where murders and missings don't create a havoc! Every place has its own secrets. And they are best exposed when a new family moves into there. 

You believe the stories you hear. You become afraid of the places alleged to be haunted, cursed or whatever. It could be the truth, it could be a myth.

For Chris, the migrating nature of his mother's job is a blessing. He's always excited to move into a new place, have new neighbors. But what excites him the most is the less trodden paths and the least visited locations of a place. 

He loves late night outings to mysterious places, exploring the dark, looking out for some supernatural events...

But things take a different turn when he moves into Little Falls. At first, everything seems to be normal. But when one night he pays a visit to The Old Cemetery, all hell breaks loose!

Without wanting to, Chris finds himself entangled in a web of lies, surprises and horror, with the girl of his dreams - Anna. In a breathtaking race against time, he is forced to question himself and those around him. But someone close is lying to him...
   
If they fail to unravel the mystery of Little Falls in the given time, well...better not talk about it!

And beware! You have only 6 nights to go...

The Awakening by NarrativeNest8708
9 parts Ongoing Mature
At 37, Cambry Keller has spent her entire life feeling as if something was just a bit... off. Her job, her relationships, her home-all perfectly ordinary, yet there was always a nagging feeling deep within her that she was meant for something more, something extraordinary. But nothing ever changed, and soon, she resigned herself to the quiet monotony of her life. Until the fall after she turned 37. In the span of a single autumn, everything Cambry thought she knew about herself-and the world around her-was turned upside down. Strange dreams begin to haunt her nights, filled with forgotten symbols and places she's never been, yet feels intimately familiar. Her body begins to change in subtle, unexplainable ways: heightened senses, a newfound connection to the natural world, and the inexplicable ability to influence the elements. As the leaves fall, Cambry uncovers long-buried family secrets that reveal her true heritage: a powerful bloodline with ties to an ancient mystical order. The dormant magic within her awakens, and Emily finds herself thrust into a world of enchantment, danger, and ancient forces vying for control. Her journey of self-discovery leads her to allies and enemies, both human and supernatural, as she grapples with the powerful abilities she never knew she possessed. But as her powers grow, so too does a looming threat. Cambry must learn to control the magic that now courses through her veins, or risk not only her life, but the fate of the world. In this transformative season, Cambry will come to understand that she is not just different-she is extraordinary. And the time for her true purpose has finally come.
