In the heart of modern Paris, beneath the flickering gaslight of Rue Saint-Cyprien, there stands a building that refuses to die. Old stones breathe faintly there—exhaling dust and memory. Number 14 had once been a boarding house, then a sanatorium, then abandoned for years. Now, it was a quaint but eerie apartment building, the kind gentrifiers eyed and exorcists avoided. And on the top floor, under a rotting wooden attic, was the scene of the most bizarre murder Paris had seen in over a century. The survivors would speak of strange lights that flared without bulbs, of voices rising in ...

What happens when you take Homer’s epic tale of heroism, throw it in a blender with sarcasm, slapstick, and divine dysfunction? You get this. Odysseus Jones just wants to go home. Unfortunately, the gods are petty, his crew is useless, and he’s got the emotional intelligence of a slightly concussed goat. From Cyclops encounters gone wrong to seductive podcaster Sirens, therapy-resistant sea monsters, and one goddess with a saxophone and abandonment issues—this is not your grandpa’s Odyssey. Meanwhile, back in Ithaca, his wife Penelope is fending off 108 suitors, each dumber than the...

When real estate mogul Charles Baskerville is found torn to shreds in his designer loafers, the suspiciously perfect suburb erupts in whispers of curses, glowing eyes, and a legendary hellhound with a taste for petty tyrants. Enter Sherwin Holmes: private investigator, sarcasm enthusiast, and the only man in town willing to interrogate ghosts and battle demonic canines without skipping brunch. With his yoga-addicted partner Dr. Joanie Watson, a gothic dog...

Some mirrors reflect your face. Others reflect your fate. When down-on-her-luck mortuary cosmetologist Lena Holloway inherits a decrepit flat on London’s forgotten Pearl Street, she thinks she’s found the perfect escape from a past full of ghosts. But beneath her floorboards is something older. Hungrier. Waiting. A hidden barbershop sealed since the 1800s. A string of pearls that whisper secrets. And a cursed razor known as the Crooked Blade—carved to cut not just flesh, but souls. As the boundary between mirrors and reality cracks, Lena is pulled into a supernatural spiral of ghostly...

They fell in love. Then everything went spectacularly wrong. Juliet Capulet is a razor-witted Insta-poet with a verified checkmark and a million reasons not to fall in love. Romeo Montague is a black-clad podcaster with a tragic backstory, a poetry addiction, and a flair for overreaction. Their families are sworn enemies in a war fought with lawsuits, skincare lines, and social media subtweets. When they meet at a masked influencer party neither was supposed to attend, sparks fly, masks fall, and a secret wedding follows—because what’s Gen Z romance without at least one felony? But in a...

In Which the Coffee is Black, the Rain is Eternal, and the Future is a Joke In the brooding city of Invercrane—where the buildings lean like they’re whispering secrets and the fog never quite clears its throat—a streetlamp flickered like it owed someone money. Somewhere, a crow laughed. Or choked. Hard to tell with crows. Three figures stood in a semi-circle outside a coffee shop called The Weird Brew. It was two hours past closing, and the neon sign buzzed like a drunk bee trying to remember its name. The windows were fogged, smeared with occult symbols traced in espresso foam and, ...

"They didn’t come to conquer. They came to replace us." One night, the stars vanished. First came the silence—satellites offline, radio signals scrambled, the sudden blindness of a world that relied too long on its technology. Then, the sky burned. Towering machines descended. Cities fell in hours. And from the wreckage, something far worse emerged: creatures that walked without eyes, without warmth, without mercy. In this modern reimagining of H.G. Wells’ timeless classic The War of the Worlds, humanity finds itself on the brink—not of war, but extinction. Jordan Mercer, a tech ...

The legend never died. It evolved. In the near future, the digital world hums with invisible hunger.

Jonathan Harker, a cyber-intelligence auditor for one of the world’s top tech firms, is assigned a mysterious case deep in the Carpathian Mountains. His target: a reclusive client known only as “D,” and a castle outfitted with bleeding-edge artificial intelligence. But what begins as a routine digital audit soon spirals into a nightmare far ...

One man. One Gate. A choice that will echo across the stars. Elias Cade never asked to be a savior.

But Andara doesn’t want a hero. It wants a key. Drawn into a conflict older than time, Elias must navigate a fragile alliance with Kaelenn, a warrior bound by honor; Princess Alura, a ruler bound by prophecy; and the Wordless, a living weapon created for silence—and reborn for purpose. Together, ...

There are places where grief settles like fog—thick, permanent, and choking. Blackthorn House is one of those places. Built high in the Appalachian hills, the estate once stood as a monument to power and ambition. Generations of Blackthorns made their fortune carving tunnels into the mountains, pulling darkness from beneath the earth. But some things should stay buried. When Hayden Blackthorn returns home after the sudden death of his father, he finds more than a family unraveling—he finds a presence. One that watches. One that whispers. The house is alive with secrets, and beneath it ...

Guilt is a ghost that doesn’t haunt—it calculates. We like to think of guilt as something abstract, emotional. A flicker of conscience. A weight behind the eyes. But what if guilt is measurable? What if it can be mapped, modeled, and predicted—not just in how we feel it, but in how we react to it? That was the question behind Project Erebus, a now-erased experiment buried beneath layers of corporate euphemism and shredded documents. Its premise was chillingly simple: isolate individuals with buried guilt, then observe what emerges when confession becomes the only currency of survival....

The world, as we knew it, was no longer the same. It had begun with the whispers. At first, they seemed harmless—just passing fancies, rumors passed from ear to ear like wildfire. The ancient myth of a force, hidden beneath the earth’s surface, of a power capable of reshaping the future, of rewriting reality itself. Most dismissed it as legend, nothing more than an unsettling tale for those drawn to the supernatural, the arcane. But the whispers were real. The force was real. And the world had begun to change long before any of us could see it coming. Tony Scarft, a man of logic and ...
