A Paranormal Thriller

Psychology professor Denton Reed has been pulled out of the classroom to find a killer. Bodies are turning up all over the quiet town of Bexhill. They are found dismembered and burned beyond recognition in a snow covered farmer's field, by the abandoned mill, and under the train bridge. The only clue linking the victims is the bizarre figure-eight patterns left behind in their homes.

Denton must use his unique profiling techniques to uncover the murderer, who the police have dubbed Mr. 8. As he begins to unravel the mystery, a strange pattern begins to emerge. Before their deaths, each victim was seized by dark obsessions and inexplicable changes in behavior. Whatever strange forces are affecting the people of Bexhill, they may actually be more dangerous than any killer.

As a wave of insanity sweeps the town, Denton will put his life on the line to get to the source of the madness and risk all to protect the woman he loves.

But is it already too late?

44 parts Complete Mature
His best friend is shot dead, and the world thinks Metropolitan Police Officer George Reynolds did it. They were in the one place that should've been safe, their police station. At least it was until aspiring detective George Reynolds came lucid from another blackout. Blood pools tantalisingly across the floor and there's two bullet holes in the wall. His best friend, officer Chris Wells is dead and George finds himself with the body and no memory of how. Only a tape recorder and a locker key for a clue. It's a dangerous game, from a lifetime of planning, rigged to make George look guilty and force him to remember what he really is and what he went through as a child. A pure born werewolf. Kidnapped from his real family to be experimented on. George gets dangled on strings by the killer puppet master and taken on a haunting journey never to be forgotten again. Made to relive the past trauma of a tragic fire that took the lives of the family that tortured him. Bodies continue to fall, all framed to fit the murderous narrative of an elaborate plot for revenge. When he finally remembers, when he's finally broken, another unique side to George wakes. So does a dark new world from the shadows. George learns the painful truth, and none of it is good. Nobody saw the real killer coming or expected that it could be someone they trusted. It will take everything George has to save his friends, new and old. Nobody will be the same. Nor will their view of the world. Its rife with the supernatural. **** Cover made on Canva Pro.

27 parts Complete Mature

(Currently being edited!) When a large group of complete strangers wake up in a building they've never seen before, they are forced to compete in a maniacal game for life or death. In this game, they will face monsters and possessions, to Suicides and Murders. They won't know what's around the next corner, and that's what makes the host of this game's fuel for murder increase. Marilyn Manson, the 'host' of the game, is absolutely insane. No doubt about it. He kidnaped them and brought them from their hometowns to pretty much the middle of nowhere, for his entertainment purposes only. What kind of sick twisted things go through his mind? Well, maybe he isn't as bad as he seems. When Kellin finds out he's pregnant, he's scared about being so close to giving birth and not being able to escape. But, Marilyn comes into view as the good guy. He helps Kellin figure out who the real monster is. He was confused as to how he never noticed how bad or who the real criminal was in the first place.
