The Day the Shadows Returned
The first time it happened, the town thought it was a storm. The sky darkened before noon, thick gray clouds swallowing the sunlight, and a strange wind swept through the streets—cold but heavy, as though it carried something unseen. Birds vanished from the trees. The air felt charged, restless.

The Lantern of the Dead Road
The rain fell in thin, endless lines, turning the world into a blur of silver and shadow. Nathan Reed’s hands tightened on the steering wheel as his car tires hissed over the slick asphalt. The road ahead was empty, winding through the countryside like a black ribbon vanishing into fog. His phone had no signal, his gas tank was nearly empty, and the nearest sign of life had been twenty miles back.

The House That Forgets You
The house was too quiet when Daniel arrived, its silence so complete that even the crunch of gravel beneath his shoes felt like an intrusion. He had come for peace, that’s what he told himself. After the city, after the noise, after the failed relationship and the job that had hollowed him out, the small countryside home seemed perfect. The rental listing described it as “a charming, secluded property ideal for those seeking solitude.” Solitude was exactly what Daniel thought he needed.

The Echo in the Attic
Prologue: The First Scratch It began not with a bang, but with a scratch. A faint, dry scraping, like a fingernail dragged over old wood. It came from the attic, directly above my bed, every night at 3:07 AM.

The Town That Forgot Its Name
The first thing Thomas noticed when he arrived was the silence. Not the comfortable kind of quiet you find in small country towns, but the kind that feels deliberate—like the air itself was holding its breath. The sign at the edge of town was blank, its paint peeled and faded, only the wooden post still standing.

Room 306
The Desert Pine Motel sat on the side of a forgotten highway, its neon sign flickering between red and dead. Travelers only stopped there when they had no choice—when their cars broke down or the night stretched too long and empty. The rooms were cheap, the paint chipped, and the silence too heavy.

The Mirror That Knows Your Thoughts
It started with whispers. Not loud ones, not even clear—just faint murmurs that seemed to crawl through the room whenever Emily stood in front of her new antique mirror. She had bought it at a flea market in a small coastal town, drawn to its dark wooden frame carved with swirling ivy and strange symbols. The seller, an old woman with pale eyes, had smiled when Emily admired it.

Isle of Serpents
Nathairden House materialised out of the crepuscule like a pale spectre, and I, Frederick Lewis, was struck by its singularity. Visibility this evening is dismal due to a griseous miasma coating the entirety of the surrounding marshland.

The History of Halloween
Long before pumpkins glowed with candlelight and children roamed the streets in costumes, there was a night of fire and fear, of spirits and change. The story of Halloween begins more than two thousand years ago, with a festival called Samhain—a Celtic word pronounced “sow-in,” meaning “summer’s end.”
