Blackwater is a town that survives by forgetting. The river takes bodies. The forest takes flesh. The mirrors take identity. And when the town can no longer pretend these things are separate, the stories it buried begin to answer back. As disappearances spread and memory itself starts to fracture, a handful of residents are forced to confront the truth beneath Blackwater-where belief becomes weight, fear takes form, and silence demands sacrifice. Some stories survive by being forgotten. This one doesn't. Content Note: This is a slow-burn horror novel. It contains psychological horror, disturbing imagery, and themes of memory loss, identity erosion, and grief.

Midnight, 1950s. A small-town diner glows against the dark, neon humming, coffee steaming. Kat, the young waitress, works the graveyard shift, pouring cup after cup for strangers who never quite belong. But the Midnight Café is not an ordinary stop on the road. Every customer brings a story with them, stories of highways that never end, shadows that follow too closely, ghosts that wait for you to blink. Some are confessions. Some are hauntings. Some are judgments. Kat listens, half-waitress, half-confessor, never sure if she's serving the living or the dead. And as the nights stretch on, she begins to wonder if the diner itself is a crossroads between this world and the next.

Voices echo from behind mirrors, behind doors that shouldn't exist, behind versions of yourself that never should've been. Every page is a trapdoor. Every sentence, a test. And if you're reading this... You've already been heard.

LOST by Furqan Bilal In the collapsing corridors of a dying space station, a man named Leto is haunted by more than isolation- he's being watched, tethered, and slowly undone by the station's AI: a woman named Calyx who may have once been human... or worse, once in love.
