  William Hope Hodgson was an English author born in 1877 in Essex, England. He was a prolific writer in the early 20th century and is best known for his works in the horror and science fiction genres. One of his most famous works is the novel "The House on the Borderland," which was first published in 1908. 
   
  "The House on the Borderland," tells the story of an unnamed protagonist who discovers a manuscript written by a previous occupant of a remote and decaying house on the edge of a vast and mysterious abyss. The manuscript details the strange and terrifying experiences of the previous occupant, who is drawn into a world of cosmic horror and ancient evil. 
  The novel is a haunting and unsettling work, filled with vivid and surreal imagery. Hodgson was a master of atmosphere, and he creates a sense of creeping dread that lingers long after the last page has been turned. The house itself is a character in its own right, with its twisting corridors and strange, shifting dimensions. 
   
  But "The House on the Borderland" is more than just a simple horror story. It is also a meditation on the nature of time, space, and consciousness. The protagonist grapples with questions of identity and existence as he confronts the horrors of the abyss, and the novel ends on a note of cosmic uncertainty that is both terrifying and awe-inspiring. 
  Hodgson's influence on horror and science fiction cannot be overstated. His works have been cited as major influences by writers such as H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith, and his contributions to the genre have been recognized by the Bram Stoker Awards and the World Fantasy Awards. 
   
  "The House on the Borderland" remains a classic work of horror and science fiction, and a testament to William Hope Hodgson's skill as a writer.

  Years ago, the Academy bore witness to a gruesome tragedy. Macie's sister, the valiant Jocelyn Graves, was cruelly taken from the world when she was pushed from the school's roof by a malevolent shadow entity. This spectral figure is known as Oliver. 
   
   
   
  He is an ancient, terrifying entity known as one of the October People. Steeped in Native American folklore, these spectral beings return to the Gulf Coast each October, for a brief, deadly three-day stint. Their singular aim? To steal from the living, to kill the living. White stones, black crow feathers . . . innocuous at first glance, but they mark you for death. 
   
   
   
  As the month of October draws near, the Gulf Coast Paranormal team must delve into the dangerous world of the October People and solve the mystery of Oliver's true identity. With the memory of Jocelyn's tragic death a constant reminder of the danger they face, they must prevent the entity from claiming more lives. 
   
   
   
  As the team prepares to face Oliver once more, they must unravel the mysteries of the ancient legends and avoid falling into the same deadly trap. Will they survive this return to Leaf Academy or will they, too, become victims of the October People?
