Whispers Noir - A House Abandoned But Not Silent

J. K. Maddox

Sinossi

After a public breakdown wrecks his screenwriting career, Calvin Reade retreats to the one place he swore off forever his childhood home in the woods of Maine. The house has been untouched since the fire that killed his mother decades ago. But it hasn’t been silent.

Determined to face the past and finish the script that’s stalked him for years, Calvin finds the place eerily preserved yet alive with memory. Script pages appear in his study that he never wrote. Old footage surfaces that shouldn’t exist. And behind a sealed door, a piano plays itself in the dark.

As dreams bleed into daylight and family truths unravel, Calvin starts to wonder if the story he’s been chasing is his to tell at all or if something else is rewriting it for him.

A gothic domestic thriller where memory warps, identity slips, and the past refuses to stay buried.

What if the biggest lie isn’t what you forgot, but what you chose to remember?

In REVERB!, twelve standalone supernatural thrillers explore the thin line between what’s spoken and what should never be said. Each story throws you into a haunted place an abandoned house, a cursed forest, a town left to rot where one whisper sets off a chain of unraveling memory and truth.

Grieving parents, obsessed investigators, fractured lovers, strangers with no way out every character faces a descent that’s as personal as it is terrifying. These aren’t just ghost stories. They’re psychological collisions, where what’s buried claws back, and the voices in the dark don’t ask to be understood. They want to be obeyed.

With layered suspense, creeping dread, and twists that linger, REVERB! pulls you to the edge and dares you to listen. Because once the whisper begins, it doesn’t stop.

H P Lovecraft: The White Ship -...

H.P. Lovecraft

Unlike many of Lovecraft's other tales, "The White Ship" does not expressly tie into the popularized Cthulhu Mythos. However, the story cannot be entirely excluded from Mythos continuity either, since it makes reference to preternatural, godlike beings. The tone and temperament of "The White Ship" speaks largely of the Dream Cycle literary structure that Lovecraft utilized in other stories such as The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath (1926) and "The Cats of Ulthar" (1920).
In this story, a lighthouse keeper named Basil Elton engages upon a peculiar fantasy in which a robed, bearded man is piloting a mystical white ship which appears when the moon is full. Elton walks out across the water on a bridge of moonbeams and joins the bearded man on this ship, and together they explore a mystical chain of islands unlike anything that can be found on Earth.They travel past Zar, a green land where "dwell all the dreams and thoughts of beauty that come to men once and then are forgotten", then the majestic city of Thalarion, "City of a Thousand Wonders", where dwell frightful demons. They pass Akariel, the huge carven gate of Thalarion, and continue their voyage. Elton is informed that those who enter both places have never returned. During the voyage they seem to be following an azure celestial bird. They also pass Xura, the "Land of Pleasures Unattained", which seems pleasant from a distance but reeks of plague upon getting nearer. They finally settle in Sona-Nyl, the "Land of Fancy",

Monstrilio

Gerardo Sámano Córdova

A "genuinely scary" horror debut written in "prose so beautiful you won't want to rush" about a boy who transforms into a monster, a monster who tries to be a man, and the people who love him in every form he takes (Ana Reyes) 
 
   
 
Grieving mother Magos cuts out a piece of her deceased eleven-year-old son Santiago's lung. Acting on fierce maternal instinct and the dubious logic of an old folktale, she nurtures the lung until it gains sentience, growing into the carnivorous little Monstrilio she keeps hidden within the walls of her family's decaying Mexico City estate. Eventually, Monstrilio begins to resemble the Santiago he once was, but his innate impulses—though curbed by his biological and chosen family's communal care—threaten to destroy this fragile second chance at life. 
 
  
 
A thought-provoking meditation on grief, acceptance, and the monstrous sides of love and loyalty, Gerardo Sámano Córdova blends bold imagination and evocative prose with deep emotional rigor. Told in four acts that span the globe from Brooklyn to Berlin, Monstrilio offers, with uncanny clarity, a cathartic and precise portrait of being human.
