    It was supposed to be an easy overnight shift. Her first night at the Holloway Inn. Simple. Quiet. Nothing strange. But the moment Elise clocks in, the air feels wrong-heavy, watching, aware.

Something watches from across the street. And Elise's ex-the man who drained her dry and broke something inside her-keeps showing up where he shouldn't be. Alive. Uninvited. Wrong.

And Elise is trapped until she learns what's really feeding in the dark. If you love slow dread, empty-eyed strangers, liminal horror, supernatural tension, and stories that feel like a nightmare you can't wake from... welcome to the Holloway. You can Check in, but don't expect to leave.

But to the shock of his grieving parents, he suddenly wakes up in the morgue-alive, breathing, and eerily calm. What appears to be a miracle soon reveals itself as something far more disturbing. Unknown to the world, a dark and vengeful spirit has taken over Dreiven's body-a soul with a violent past and unfinished business. He resumes Dreiven's life in the public eye with ease, mimicking his mannerisms, speaking his words, and smiling his smile. When he return, he meet Ylarah, a production assistant who's quietly trying to rebuild her life after years of suppressing trauma. At six years old, she was the sole survivor of a brutal family massacre-left alive by the same man who now wears Dreiven's face. When she meets him again on set, memories buried in blood begin to resurface. Though she tells herself it's impossible, Ylarah starts to recognize the look in his eyes, the way he speaks to her, the shadow that follows him. And while she tries to keep her distance, an unexplainable pull draws her back toward him. What begins as suspicion spirals into psychological warfare. Dreiven becomes increasingly fixated on her. He watches. He follows. He even kill for her. As her fear grows, so does her confusion. Despite everything, part of her feels connected to him in a way she can't explain. And the more she tries to escape, the more tangled she becomes in a web of guilt, and twisted affection. Now, Ylarah must confront the truth: The man she's drawn to is the same one who destroyed her life. Can she love the monster who destroyed her? 🔪 The Killer's Desire | Marie_Tales Horror | Supernatural | Psychological thriller | Dark Romance

    Seventeen-year-old Rei Asano hears war drums in his chest when he's angry, and lately, they're always beating. Ever since a lightning storm cracked open the Tokyo skyline and nearly leveled his school, Rei's life has been unraveling: blackouts, hallucinations, bursts of electrical force he can't control. The truth? He's become the vessel of Raijin, the ancient Japanese god of thunder and destruction. And Raijin isn't just waking up. He's taking over. Then there's Kaori Tsukimura: sharp-tongued, tightly guarded, and hiding a quiet grief that runs deeper than anyone knows. She keeps her emotions locked away, until a whisper in the dark calls her by a name no one remembers-Inome, the goddess of love... and vengeance, erased from the divine pantheon centuries ago. When their paths collide, Rei and Kaori discover that their bond is more than coincidence-it's myth repeating itself. Raijin and Inome were once divine opposites: passion and restraint, war and yearning. Now, as their hosts grow closer, those ancient desires threaten to reignite with catastrophic force. Across the city, other teens are awakening as hosts to gods: some long-forgotten, some desperate to remain in control. Factions rise-one fighting to resurrect the erased, another determined to destroy them before the world tears open. With divine war on the horizon, Rei and Kaori must decide what's more dangerous: the gods within them, or the feelings pulling them together. But every time they touch, the Veil thins. Memories blur. The line between self and god fractures. And love, if it still belongs to them at all, might be the thing that ends everything.
