HORROR. Content Warning.
The old, dilapidated mansion stood at the edge of town, shrouded in an eternal fog that clung to its broken windows like ghostly fingers. Locals referred to it simply as "The Black Manor," a name whispered in hushed tones as if uttering it aloud would summon the malevolent spirits rumored to inhabit the decaying halls.

Reed Literary Horror Review of 'Beneath the Unspoiled Wilderness' (2022). Content Warning.
On the surface this is just your basic slasher novel. Some young adults go camping and something picks them off one by one. But as that plot progresses you realize there is still a ton of book left. So, after the final girl does her thing, what's left? And that enters the next phase of the book. You see, there are three distinct parts to this novel. It's not just some slasher, it's everything that would go along with it. What happens to the final girl after the nightmare is over is what this story is really about and it is indeed gripping. Gripping and quite tragic, I should say, without going into the spoilers.

The Dinner Invite. Content Warning.
Author's Notes: This is the second part or follow-up to Intrusive Thoughts of a Psychopath. I had thought about doing more with that character and as it recieved a lot of encouraging feedback, I figured I'd continue this warped tale.
