Summary

Helena Creek was erased from the map thirty years ago.No power. No people. No broadcasts.At 2:12 a.m., a dead radio frequency comes alive.When a retired ham-radio operator records a transmission that should not exist, and two urban explorers vanish near an abandoned broadcast tower, a terrifying truth begins to surface—the signal is not a message, it is a doorway.What follows is a slow-burn, atmospheric descent into dread, where sound itself becomes a predator, recordings erase themselves, and those who listen too closely are no longer entirely human. As authorities attempt to decode the phenomenon, they discover something far worse than a haunting:The signal is listening back.

    The story is recounted by the protagonist, Count Antoine de C, in the first person. Hundreds of years ago, Antoine's noble ancestor was responsible for the death of a dark wizard, Michel Mauvais. The wizard's son, Charles le Sorcier, swore revenge on not only him but all his descendants, cursing them to die on reaching the age of 32. The protagonist recounts how his ancestors all died in some mysterious way around the age of 32. The line has dwindled and the castle has been left to fall into disrepair, tower by tower. Finally, Antoine is the only one left, with one poor servant, Pierre, who raised him, and a tiny section of the castle with a single tower is still usable. Antoine has reached adulthood, and his 32nd year is approaching. His servant eventually dies, leaving him completely alone, and he begins exploring the ruined parts of the castle. He finds a trapdoor in one of the oldest parts. Below, he discovers a passage with a locked door at the end. Just as he turns to leave, he hears a noise behind him and sees that the door is open and someone is standing in it. The man attempts to kill him but Antoine kills him first. His dying words reveal that he is none other than Charles, who actually managed to successfully fabricate the elixir of life, enabling him to personally fulfill the curse generation after generation.

    Step aboard the haunted decks of the Ocean King, once a proud Indiaman and now reduced to a coal-carrying collier. In W. Clark Russell’s chilling maritime tale, second mate Mr. Green recalls the ship’s fall from luxury to decay—and the ghostly presence said to stalk her rigging and forepeak. From whispered voices calling sailors by name, to phantom figures glimpsed aloft under the red moon, the voyage grows darker with every passing night. Blurring the line between superstition and ventriloquism, A Bewitched Ship captures both the grandeur of a vessel’s past and the eerie fate that clings to ships long at sea. A gripping sea ghost story from one of the Victorian era’s most celebrated nautical novelists.

 "I see dead people," it said the doctor jumped startled by the sudden appearance of the reaper. 
 "Ha! Ha! Very funny, boy," said the doctor humourlessly, "This is a friend of yours I hear say hello to him." 
 "I've never met him in life," The reaper the Necromancer said. 
 "Are you serious?" asked Dr Death grimly. 
 "Yes who is he?" replied the Necromancer, "It's starting to look like anyone can kill someone and frame me for it."  
 "That means there is another killer out there it is serious," the coroner grumbled. 
 "The people in blue won't believe you when you tell them it is another killer," said the Necromancer. 
 "Looks like we will have to catch them ourselves, boy," said Dr Death to his son.

    Life in Hollow Cove has finally settled down—or so I thought. 
I’m ready to enjoy my new life with my newish husband, but apparently, peace and quiet just isn’t in the cards for me. 
Enter Lilith—the Goddess of Night and Queen of the Netherworld—who shows up unannounced and demands a favor. Saying no isn’t really an option. I mean, how do you tell a literal goddess to shove it when refusing means she’ll kill you? So yeah, I agree. 
Big mistake. 
What she’s asking for is more than I bargained for, and I’m not sure I can go through with it. But if I don’t? Well, she’s made it clear I won’t live to regret it. 
To top it all off, my aunts and I have been honored with an invitation to compete in the Arcane Summit—the most prestigious magical competition in our world. 
Prestigious, sure. But it turns out these games are anything but fair, and they’re far more dangerous than anyone let on. 
With a goddess breathing down my neck and deadly trials ahead, I’m running out of options. If I can’t pull off a miracle, I might not make it out of this alive.

    What if you lost the last physical thing that reminds you of a lost beloved child through theft, and it happens to be found upon the body of the now dead thief, and it is now in the hands of the police would you if you had access to would you take it back? Is stealing back your own stolen thing, really theft or is it? This is the situation where this coroner, Blake, finds himself in. 
On a lonely quiet misty night after midnight in Melbourne, anything can happen and it did. At that hour, only the reckless and unprincipled wander around. 
On such a night as this, a straggler from a theatre was wandering in the cool calming night remembering a lost daughter who he'd lost many years ago on a night like this. This day, to be exact, 28 years earlier. She was murdered with her husband as they walked the street he was in. He came as he always did this night to lay a rose for them. He did so unbothered, for all the times he had come. Before that night. He pulled out an old locket and looked at it sadly and opened it, looking at the pictures inside it. They were his daughter and her husband. The father pulled a red rose from his inside coat pocket and lay the rose on the wet road. As the father knelt laying the rose there was a noise nearby on the road like a splash in the puddle, he looked up and saw a man with a gun trained on him.
