The Ghoul Upstairs - She Thought It Was Noisy Neighbors—Until They Started Complaining Too

Lena Grace Holloway

Beschreibung

Hannah’s new apartment is too good to be true—affordable rent, charming architecture, and just enough creaky character to feel historic. But the charm fades fast when mysterious noises start echoing through the walls at night. Whispers, thumps, dragging sounds. She blames her downstairs neighbor. He blames her. And no one knows what’s really pacing the floors.When another tenant joins the chorus of complaints, the uneasy tension between them transforms into a reluctant alliance. Together, they search the building for logical answers, only to uncover traces of something much older—and much hungrier—lurking in the walls.As their suspicions turn inward, and fear sharpens into paranoia, Hannah begins to wonder whether they’re being haunted… or manipulated. Each knock, each shadow, each fragment of forgotten history reveals a deeper pattern. But who—or what—is pulling the strings?Trapped in a place where emotion fuels the unknown, the tenants must face the truth about the building, and about themselves. Because in this brownstone, the walls remember more than they were ever meant to.What if the most terrifying ghost story isn’t about a ghost at all?

West of Nowhere

Chase McPherson

Hunter is just getting used to life as a vampire detective when he begins developing a remarkable new ability - one that none of his fellow agents at The Order have ever witnessed. 
While he tries to control this new power, Hunter, his lover, Kai, and fellow agents from the Dallas bureau are summoned to San Francisco, where there is evidence a project to mutate ordinary citizens into human-animal hybrids has resumed. 
What Hunter learns about his true self could help in tracking down those responsible - and could put his comrades in mortal jeopardy. 
Praise for West of Nowhere: 
McPherson's style awakens old world vampire stories and entwines them with mystery/thriller overtones, making the resultant narrative decidedly unique... West of Nowhere weaves a wealth of supernatural fantasy components together, interlacing them with themes of belonging and regret into one intense, fast-moving story. --The BookLife Prize 
Fans of The Dresden Files or The Southern Vampire Mysteries (but with more edge and less camp) will find a lot to enjoy here. It's fast, it's dark, and it leaves you with just enough unease to keep the lights on at night. (Thomas Anderson, Literary Titan)

D K Broster - A Short Story...

D K Broster

Dorothy Kathleen Broster was born on 2nd September 1877 at Devon Lodge in Grassendale Park, Garston, Liverpool.

At 16, the family moved to Cheltenham, where she attended Cheltenham Ladies' College and then on to St Hilda’s College, Oxford to read history, where she was one of the first female students, although at this time women were not awarded degrees.

Broster served as secretary to Charles Harding Firth, a Professor of History for several years, and collaborated on several of his works. Her first two novels were co-written with a college friend, Gertrude Winifred Taylor.

With the Great War interrupting her literary ambitions she served as a Red Cross nurse at a Franco-American hospital, but returned to England with a knee infection in 1916.

After the war, she moved near to Battle in East Sussex and took up writing full-time.

In 1920 she at last received her Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts from Oxford.

Her novels, mainly historical fiction, peaked in popularity with ‘The Flight of the Heron’, in 1925, a best-seller followed up by two sequels.

As well as poetry and various articles she also wrote several short stories, the best known of which is a classic of weird fiction ‘The Couching at the Door’ in which an artist appears to be haunted by a mysterious entity.

An intensely private individual many readers deduced from her name that she was both a man and Scottish.

D K Broster died in Bexhill Hospital on 7th February 1950. She was 73.
