In the rugged wilderness of the Appalachian Mountains, the treacherous river running through Linville Gorge holds more than its share of mortal dangers. But something deadlier than any force of nature is about to be awakened. Something both unnatural and immortal. Driven from their ancient hunting grounds, they have dwelt in their cave for hundreds of years... hiding, waiting - and hungering. Now, a group of white-water rafters has made the mistake of passing through their hunting grounds, and for these awakened creatures of the night, their thirst for blood is about to be unleased. And they are going to feed...

The Farm
by Scott Nicholson

Katy Logan was looking for a fresh start when she uprooted herself and her daughter Jett from the stresses of city life to settle in the Blue Ridge Mountain town of Solom.

Yet things is Solom aren't as simple as they seem - starting with her husband, Gordon, and his strange, secretive family. Jett understands her mother's reasons for dragging them out to the sticks - although it's harder to tolerate her new stepfather, with his weird stories of a blood-drinking scarecrow and a long-gone family member who may have been murdered.

The Home
by Scott Nicholson

The Manor
by Scott Nicholson

Ephram Korban was an admirer of the human creative spirit, dedicated to collecting art in its many forms - literature, photography, painting, and sculpture - before he took his own life. Nestled in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains stands the home he built as a retreat for artists to hone their craft, perfect their skills... perhaps even produce a masterpiece. Isolated from the outside world in the electricity-free mansion, artists gather to court their muses for six weeks, undisturbed.

Anna Galloway has no interest in art and even less in the people who produce it. Her sensibilities are more in tune with the realm beyond the physical, where the souls of the deceased reside and visions reveal secrets. She has included herself among the elite artistes in residence at Korban's retreat because she has seen the manor in her dreams - and believes Korban's ghost may be wandering its halls.

Now, a blue moon is on the rise in October, opening magical pathways to conjure up something unimaginable. Something feeding off the energies of those in the house. Something seeking everlasting life - at any cost...

The Red Church
by Scott Nicholson

For 13-year-old Ronnie Day, life is full of problems: Mom and Dad have separated, his brother Tim is a constant pest, Melanie Ward either loves him or hates him, and Jesus Christ won't stay in his heart. Plus he has to walk past the red church every day, where the Bell Monster hides with its wings and claws and livers for eyes. But the biggest problem is that Archer McFall is the new preacher at the church, and Mom wants Ronnie to attend midnight services with her. Sheriff Frank Littlefield hates the red church for a different reason. His little brother died in a freak accident at the church twenty years ago, and now Frank is starting to see his brother's ghost. And the ghost keeps demanding, "Free me." People are dying in Whispering Pines, and the murders coincide with McFall's return. The Days, the Littlefields, and the McFalls are descendants of the original families that settled the rural Appalachian community. Those old families share a secret of betrayal and guilt, and McFall wants his congregation to prove its faith. Because he believes he is the Second Son of God, and that the cleansing of sin must be done in blood. "Sacrifice is the currency of God," McFall preaches, and unless Frank and Ronnie stop him, everybody pays.
