For nearly 300 years, the Normingtons and the Lorimers have feuded, since a love affair ended in a curse that doomed dead Lorimers to haunt their home, the Castle of Lorne.
Now the last Marquis of Lorne, the last of the Lorimers, is one of those ghosts, and the Duke of Kendal, head of the House of Normington, holds the castle.
Kendal doesn't care about the feud or the ghosts. He wants only to find the evidence that will legitimate the son his Lorimer bride bore him before her death, and to convince his stubborn housekeeper to marry him.
But the time allotted to the curse is running out, and his happiness depends on finding the Lost Treasure of Lorne before the 300 years draws to a close.All Rights Reserved

DISCONTINUED (might change though...) This is a story I was writing at the same time as kinfolk. I've kinda forgotten about it though because I'm not into tokyo revengers anymore ☠️ I decided to publish it since it's probably the best thing I've written yet! 👻🔪👻🔪👻🔪👻🔪 "𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑑𝑜 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑝𝑎𝑦 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑡𝑦. 𝐵𝑢𝑡 𝑏𝑒𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑒, 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑔ℎ𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑖𝑡𝑠 ℎ𝑜𝑚𝑒." In which Bonten is in desperate need of a new place to keep its 8 most important members as the previous one got found. An old man is ready to give them an abandoned mansion in the periphery of Japan, for free. It's weird. Is there some kind of curse for the owner to give away such a nice mansion? Ghost!Reader x Bonten 👻🔪👻🔪👻🔪👻🔪 I upload every Wednesday and Saturday. I will tell you guys if I am unable to publish for some time. Since Y/n is a ghost, this book won't be about romance. The story doesn't follow the original plot but there will be some spoilers.

And so, he summons his family to Kenilworth Castle, for the Christmas feast days, which are about to be fraught with scheming. The cast includes his new wife who is step mother to his grown children, his power hungry oldest son, his untrustworthy illegitimate brother, the kidnapped Scottish king, and an entire castle full of vengeful ghosts. After a lifetime of war Henry isn't suited to peace. Nor is his family. It's going to be a very long two weeks. Inspired by true events. Trigger/Content Warning: Family issues throughout. Some strong language. A character briefly suffers PTSD flashbacks. Some mild gore. Some irreverent humor regarding a hated character's illness. Some brief sexuality. Suggestive dialogue regarding a character's sexual promiscuity. Some intense family arguments. Alcohol use throughout.

The Vampire and The Ghost | ✔︎ by SammyE9

[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Perception ✔ by LynaForge

Stories are written by the winners. Winners who never fail to paint themselves in a 'favorable' light. I've been called evil. Twisted. Strange. Heartless. All fair assessments; I dispute none of these claims. In fact, I hold my head high while confessing to the evil, twisted, strange, and heartless things that I've done. The things, those ignorant of the truth, would condemn. But all people are capable of all things under the right conditions, good or bad. Don't believe me? I dare you to read my story and tell me if you would have--could have--done things differently. One of your most beloved fairy tale classics retold. Get all sides of the story.
