"In a mad world, only the mad are sane."

Alazne Rainsford was a well-renowned, teenage psychic medium who traveled across the nation to help all spirits - good or bad - find peace. Many people knew her name and supported what she did, calling her a hero of the Afterlife; others sought to ruin her name by exposing her for a fraud. However, when she encounters the spirit of her ancestor 14th Century ancestor Kiena Bennett, she must travel halfway around the world to Venice, Italy. It is there that she will arrive at the most notorious paranormal location in the country, and where her life will take a turn for the worst: Poveglia Island.

Finding the truth of Kiena’s story starts to become an obsession for Alazne, going to fatal lengths to help her ancestor. What if that obsession went too far to stop it? What if she disregarded all safety in order to help an unsettled ancestor, who held a dark secret after more than 600 years of imprisonment in Limbo and trying to keep Alazne away from the island? Some spirits, she’ll come to learn, are often better off left alone and unfound.All Rights Reserved

Ashvale by ChristianBishop8

Ashvale is a town trapped in time, a place where the fog never fully lifts, and the air always carries the faintest scent of decay. With its abandoned streets, dilapidated homes, and a history shrouded in mystery, Ashvale seems frozen in a nightmare that no one dares to wake from. Whispers of ghostly apparitions, strange disappearances, and eerie happenings have kept visitors away for decades, leaving it forgotten by the outside world. Ella Turner, a young, ambitious journalist with a reputation for uncovering the truth, is determined to crack the mystery of Ashvale. Drawn by the promise of a story that could launch her career, she arrives with nothing but curiosity and skepticism. But as soon as she sets foot in the town, Ella feels the chilling presence of something more-something unnatural. The townspeople, few and far between, speak in hushed tones, warning her to leave before it's too late. They know the truth about Ashvale's dark past: it is cursed, haunted by restless spirits who have never found peace. The more Ella investigates, the more she uncovers a web of tragic events that have bound the souls of the dead to the land, their cries echoing in the shadows. Determined to help them find release, Ella embarks on a dangerous journey to unravel the truth behind Ashvale's curse. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that breaking the town's hold on the spirits might cost her more than she ever imagined. With every revelation, Ella's grip on reality begins to slip, and she must confront a terrifying question: can she free the souls of Ashvale without losing her own in the process? In Ashvale, the past never stays buried... and some stories should never be told.

Soulless by EmbracingYou

Adriana Crest's kind can walk the line between life and death, but to do that, they must die. Adriana always knew she was different; she could see what others couldn't. Those who surrounded her knew that Adriana was different; odd. Even Adriana's own father could tell there was something off with her ever since the crash, the one that changed Adriana's life. Awakened an old force inside of her that collected its steep price and took control of her entire being. Now the teenagers unasked questions may be given answers, when a mysterious family moves to her island. They are unlike any others Adriana has ever meet, who willingly left the mainland to live on the low sourced island. Where there are no malls and one out-dated picture house. They are the only people Adriana has ever encountered who are like her; something she doesn't know whether to fear, or not. Adriana wants to know more but she's too scared of what she'll find. Because, like Adriana, they are the only ones on the island who have no auras.

Story Description When Sofia and her friends arrive on Eldren's Isle for what was meant to be a peaceful getaway, they are greeted not by relaxation but by an ominous presence lurking in the shadows of a crumbling mansion. The island, purchased by Sofia's family as a retreat, is far from an escape-it's a trap woven with centuries of dark secrets, eerie symbols, and a curse that refuses to die. As the group begins to unravel the island's history, they discover an ancient evil tied to the mansion and its former inhabitants. A shadow, bound to the island by a cursed object, stalks their every move. It feeds on fear, thrives on isolation, and has only one goal: to ensure no one leaves alive.

But the shadow grows stronger with every passing moment, and the line between ally and enemy begins to blur. Shadows of Eldren's Isle is a chilling tale of friendship, courage, and the haunting power of secrets. As the darkness closes in, the group must decide how far they're willing to go-and what they're willing to sacrifice-to survive. Will they escape the island's grasp, or will its curse claim them as its next victims?

After her Gran fell ill and passed away, Brigid wasn't able to keep her grandmother's metaphysical shop going. With everything crashing down around her, Brigid buys a one-way ticket to the land of her ancestors, hoping to find solace in the old cabin where her Gran grew up. Ireland is everything she was always told it was and then some. As she sorts out the slowly declining house in the woods, she's thrust into the path of handsome Torin Boyle by circumstance.

Torin Boyle has spent the last thirty-odd years living in the North of Ireland, running through the rolling hills with his friends. As a pack of wolf Shifters in a country that has no natural wolves, Torin has learned to keep a tap on his inner emotions to protect those he loves. But his homeland is dying; small patches of forest turning brown and dry. When a witch appears on his family's land out of nowhere, he's concerned that the witch is to cause for what's been happening to the land. He never expected to feel pulled into her orbit so completely. Brigid's idyllic life comes to a halt when Torin's father falls ill, closely followed by other members of the Shifter's family. The land around them - the very land where Brigid's ancestors lived - is dying. If Brigid and Torin can't figure out how to fix it, she might not be the only one losing those she loves. **Trigger Warnings - mentions of hospitals and death/cancer; loosing loved ones**
