By Dawn: The 13th House

Nine Tales. Nine Secrets. All Before Dawn.  In the shadows of Bloomstone Manor, a dilapidated estate hauntingly set on "e;Lily Lane"e;, the veil between the living and the dead is impossibly thin. This collection of nine paranormal mystery stories explores inheritances, dark family legacies, and spectral demands, all bound by a home's enduring, dark influence. This Halloween, meet the three students who dare to knock on the door of "e;The 13th House"e;—a black, unnumbered prison that holds the sinister secrets of the past. Their trick-or-treating leads them to a terrifying collection of artifacts: a bent spoon, a rusted key, and a doll's eye. Every artifact is a clue left by a child who vanished, whispering pleas for help from beyond the grave. The teens must solve the mystery and free the spirits before the night's magic fades, or they might become the next secret the old house keeps. Uncover the restless spirits and broken promises that demand attention and resolution. When the clock strikes dawn, the secrets settle back into the dust and lilies—and it may be too late.
