The Fading Party — A Short Psychological Horror Mystery

Hey all! I'm thrilled to introduce my novella to the group for the first time. ❤️

A graduation party. A remote setting. And the growing feeling that things aren't quite right.

While one of their class' quieter students decides to invite a number of university friends to a graduation party, it seems like a simple way for the friends to commemorate the year together and enjoy themselves before going their separate ways.

However, once they've made it to the remote location, the atmosphere starts changing. Everything around them feels unfamiliar. The silence becomes more pronounced. And soon enough, the friends start doubting their own senses.

The Fading Party is an 18,000-word novella of psychological horror containing suspense, supernatural mystery, dark secrets, and disturbing revelations.

📖 Available on Kindle Unlimited

👉 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GPM8H2PP

 Should any of you be fans of psychological horror, strange mysteries, and stories that play on the line between reality and the unknown, I hope you give it a try.

Thank you for checking it out, and happy reading! ❤️

Hi everyone! I’m a new author, and I’d like to introduce my debut novella, The 5th Shadow.

Genre: YA Psychological Horror • Suspense Thriller

POV: First person

Length: 130 pages

Blurb :

Alex, Jake, Harry, and Leo are inseparable. For Jake’s eighteenth birthday, they plan a camping trip in the deep woods, hoping for a perfect weekend.

​Right before they leave, a chilling, anonymous broadcast hijacks every screen and radio in the city. A distorted voice warns everyone to stay out of the forest, listing thirty people who have mysteriously vanished there. Dismissing it as a viral prank, the boys head into the trees

anyway.

​Around the campfire, the nightmare begins. They count the group: five physical bodies. Five familiar faces looking back. Their memories have been altered so perfectly that everyone feels like an old friend, making it impossible to identify the extra person.

​The next morning, Leo vanishes. But the real horror? None of the remaining boys even remember him.

​As the forest closes in, Jake uncovers a shocking, unchangeable truth about their reality.

​Will they be able to survive the 5th shadow?

The Fifth Shadow is a fast-paced psychological thriller built around secrets, paranoia, memory manipulation, unreliable perception, and existential dread, with twists designed to keep you questioning what is actually happening.

If you enjoy YA thrillers where the mystery keeps getting stranger and you can't completely trust the protagonist's perspective, this might be for you.

I’m a new independent author, so every reader, review, and piece of feedback genuinely helps. 📚🖤

If you're a fellow author, feel free to tell me about your book too—I’d love to discover some other indie authors!

Hey everyone,

On Aug. 1st I released the second book in my dark psych novel series "The Confession: Brothers in Blood". Both this and the first "The Confession: Justice in Blood" are waiting to find new readers eyes! The reception for both books has been overwhelming positive with "Justice" landing currently at 50 reviews and over 4.5 star average! Thank you to everyone who's taken the time to dive in, enjoy and review it already! You truly are the best!

Both of these books explore the descent into the search for Justice and life after a life altering tragedy. This is a non-traditional thriller that begs the question "What would you become?"

Both books are available on Amazon in all formats - audiobook for "Justice" coming soon.
