  Lucy and her young family have moved to a cottage on a quiet lane in a peaceful coastal town. Her husband is moving work but she is running away from the memory of the son she lost.

  Stories From the Shadows -...

  An author’s talents may seem obvious and indisputable as they move words and ideas into gathered phrases and stories. 
   
  But where do these ideas and stories come from?  A lonely thought that suddenly gathers form?  An inspiration from a Muse?  A suggestion from an everyday event? 
   
  Perhaps in the case of their darker, more malevolent stories, other forces are at work.  They help to nourish single words into sentences and paragraphs that ease themselves from the shadows and are suddenly upon us in twisted revelation that may thrill, may disturb, but will always engage and help us explore the edge of darkness where some of the very best literature patiently lurks …. waiting …. for the likes of me and you.

  When the Tuckers' next-door neighbor mentions someone rang their doorbell late the previous night, Sarah and Kenny Tucker check their home's security camera and discover something shocking: the doorbell ringer also visited their house and it wasn't a teenager playing a prank, but instead a terrified young woman with a shackle hanging from her right wrist. She anxiously pressed the doorbell again and again, glancing over her shoulder as if someone was coming for her, before giving up and taking off into the dark. 
   
   
   
  Almost overnight, she becomes known as The Girl on the Porch—and she's everywhere. There are updates on all the local networks, national coverage on CNN and Fox News, and the video goes viral on social media. Before long, everyone has seen the harrowing security camera footage. 
   
   
   
  Kenny and Sarah figure it's only a matter of time before someone recognizes the woman, but as the days pass and no one comes forward, odd things begin to transpire around the Tucker family: a man intensely watches them at a restaurant and then vanishes, fresh footprints appear in the garden next to their house where no one should have been, a neighbor's pet is viciously killed and mutilated, and a mysterious man has started following their daughter Natalie . . .

  The Dreams in the Witch House

  In "The Dreams in the Witch House," H.P. Lovecraft weaves a chilling tale centered around Walter Gilman, a curious scholar who takes up residence in the ominous Witch House, a place steeped in dark history and whispers of malevolence in the shadowy town of Arkham. This eerie abode once served as a prison to the infamous Keziah Mason, a witch whose vanishing from a Salem jail in 1692 is shrouded in mystery and dread. 
  As Gilman settles into the decaying, crooked rooms of the Witch House, he uncovers a haunting truth: nearly all who have lived there before him met untimely and tragic ends. The palpable sense of foreboding in these walls presses upon his mind, igniting sparks of both dread and fascination.In his restless slumber, the line between reality and nightmare blurs, as he is transported to the alien city of the Elder Things. He is drawn into a nightmarish communion with Keziah Mason and her sinister henchmen, whose otherworldly presence chills him to the bone. Each dream pulls him deeper into a supernatural labyrinth where darkness reigns, and the very fabric of sanity begins to fray.
