The Haunted Cabin
Michelle Dorey - 2017
Her best friend, who happens to be psychic, told her not to go to that cabin with Jordan. “Not only is it isolated, in the middle of nowhere, but it has a dark history. Two people died there tragically!” But she’s determined to support her boyfriend Jordan, in his grief. The cabin is now his, bequeathed to him by his favourite uncle. Besides which, Meryl and Jordan are old hands at roughing it in the forest. Right from the start, the paranormal makes its presence known. A door creaks open on its own, even though the bedroom was locked when she first tired it. That room is a shrine, perfectly intact and there’s a diary—a twisted tale of treachery and deceit. Unexplained noises, cryptic messages left for her, fleeting glimpses of ghostly entities and the eerie sense that she’s being watched. She is. The ghosts have been waiting for revenge. Don’t read this book at night, especially if you’re alone. A chilling, frightening story of ghosts and thrilling supernatural suspense.
