(Book Review) The Haunting of James Hastings by Christopher Ransom
A psychotic roller coaster. What begins as a seemingly straightforward paranormal tale quickly spirals into something much more complex and unsettling. The opening draws you in with an eerie, supernatural vibe, but the middle hits you with layers of confusion, psychological twists, and moments that make you question everything you thought you understood. By the time you reach the final chapters, there’s a lot to unravel, threads that suddenly snap into place, revelations that

(Review) This Wretched Valley by Jenny Kiefer
I found a full free audiobook of this horror novel on YouTube, I'll link it here: https://youtu.be/JDsqed_AMnE?si=qIYVc9Qvh1eVaIxZ It is beautifully read, the narrator capturing the voices of each character. Definitely worth the listen! The book itself was creepy and tormenting. A forest so haunted it turned the four campers against each other. With horrifying images, and devilish ghosts causing the group to go absolutely insane. Beautifully read, wonderfully written, and ex

(Review) The Folcroft Ghosts by Darcy Coates
I have been able to find full audiobooks on YouTube, were you aware they some people often upload full audiobooks to YouTube? It’s great for someone like me who enjoys a good audiobook from time to time and doesn't really want to fund the greedy piece of shit that runs Amazon by subscribing to Audible. I also know there are other audiobook providers but at the money finance is tight and so this new finding is fantastic. Anyways one of the books that I recently heard on YT was

(Book Review) The House Next Door by Darcy Coates
Extremely creepy book full of plot twists. There were moments you thought the book was about to end but then another plot twist would arise and continue, this was something I really enjoyed in the story and had not before experienced. It was extremely haunting and gave me chills through almost every page. I love a good Darcy Coates read. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)

For years, my poetry lived in scattered places, such as, in notebooks with bent corners, in phone notes written late at night, on scraps of pa
