💌 Kathryn finds a note under her apartment door. Mason Thompson's name is written on the outside, but the message inside is for her.
It's signed by Dillion, her husband who died seventeen months ago.

Then Kathryn finds a missed call from Dillion's number.
She doesn't know Mason, so why is his name on the note?

By then, Dun Hodda should be nothing more than history.
But what began there hasn't finished yet.

There are places where the silence feels deliberate.

You walk in. You look around. Nothing seems wrong.

Then you realize the silence started when you arrived.

‘Come into me!’: Possession, Consent and Courage in The Exorcist.
Possession as we know it seldom involves consent... or does it? If you think of The Conjuring, or Evil Dead, something is unleashed and takes possession of the victims, whether they know they invited it or not. It's actually the start of plenty of good horror stories....

🛗 Apparently The 13th Floor isn't doing much for people's trust in lifts.

“Hair-raising, fast-paced” and “will make you think twice before stepping into an elevator.” — Bodger, The StoryGraph

We can't really ask for a more appropriate side effect from a horror book. 😈

Bonewhistle review: S.E Reid invites us to Ferris Island once again.

Ferris Island, Washington is not a real place, but it might as well be. The inhabitants are normal folk just like you and me…except that the place where they live has some strange hidden corners and a very unusual history....
