Summary
North thought the worst thing his dorm room could do was smell weird after rain.
Then his things started moving.
His noodles disappeared. His student card turned up under his pillow. His photos kept getting flipped face-down no matter how many times he fixed them.
At first, it was just creepy.
Then people started forgetting him.
His classmates. His juniors. The dorm staff. Even Easter forgets small things about him, and Easter is his roommate.
Johan remembers everything.
That should make North feel better. It does not.
Because something in the dorm is trying to erase North from everyone's memory, and Johan is slowly becoming the only person standing between North and a room that wants him gone. -

Summary
She won't let him play the piano.
When he sits down at the keys her hands slide over his, beside his, fingers dancing to counter every note he tries to set down. When he screams, she laughs, high and bright and feral, and oh he’s missed that sound, he’s longed for that sound, he dreams of that sound.
(Lestat is haunted by his daughter).

Summary
Lottie just spawns into a town in Alaska one night and have been living there for the last 5 years of her life as a staff at a bookstore, painting and helping her friend/boss/landlord Raven rebind books for a living. Life is slow. Life is quiet. And sure, everyone have a little secret in their lives, anyway, so it shouldn't be at all suspicious that a girl with no legal papers have a secret of her own...like the fact that she's from another world? It isn't like her being there brings about the end of the world or something.
Then...the circus rolls into town in middle of the night and pops up tents like mushrooms after a storm.
It isn't all that strange, really, even if the town is a bit creeped out by their appearances. But they are the Circus of Horror so being uncanny should be in the job's description. Yet...why is the Ring Master so familiar with Lottie? And why are the rest of the circus so focused on her? Does she know them?
Her memory is spotty, after all...

Summary
Sirius Black didn't do anything wrong. it wasn't his fault Severus decided to actually go into the shack. It wasn't his fault that he ended up dead and Remus was arrested. At least, that's what he was going to keep telling himself. He almost believed it, too, until the silvery pale figure of the boy he tormented for years began to appear and exist as a reminder of his every guilt.
Severus didn't expect to wake after death and frankly, he feels jipped. He's going to spend his afterlife getting answers, if not revenge.
In which Severus dies in the shack and comes back as a spirit to haunt Sirius. I'm taking creative liberties with ghosts and some of the magics but most of the HP universe will stay intact and recognizable. Fuck JKR I'm stealing her barbies. My first big, multichapter fic in a decade. Will update tags with anything important as I write and add notes before chapters for anything big.

Summary
Dick Grayson is eight years old when his parents die in a "tragic accident." He is sent to live with his mysterious godfather, in a sprawling mansion in the Pine Barrens of New Jersey outside of Gotham.
He's pretty sure the house is haunted.
___
Some of the inspirations behind this include Edgar Allen Poe, the entire Gothic Horror genre, and The Addams Family. This fic will focus more on the found family aspect of Batman, but there will still be Batman stuff happening (leaning heavily into the supernatural elements tag.) Expect mostly Dick's POV (chapters from another character's POV will have it mentioned before the chapter.) Tags will be updated as needed.Series

Summary
He felt as though he was on some great precipice. A fount of knowledge lingering just beneath his fingertips. The discoveries, the understanding this could give him. On beliefs, on culture, on connection. It struck him. He practically caressed the page before he slipped a single fingertip beneath the bottom corner, easing it up until it found its way over.
But it wasn't type that awaited him. It was a messy looping of handwritten commentary. Had someone really taken this priceless first addition and covered it in banal ramblings? He shut the book with great offense.
Emmrich explores the depths of the Necropolis, searching for the one leaving notes
A little inspired by Piranesi (maybe a little Backrooms vibes?)

Summary
"Say you'll have me, William," The spirit commanded, mimicking the real Michael's own manner of speech. Stealing his voice. His cadence.
For a moment, in a lust-borne second of weakness and hypersensitivity, Will could feel his resolve crack under the weight of desire. Of this thing. This inescapable, all consuming fire.
Weakly, he nods his head up and down, eyes fluttering shut. His body, pliant under the devil's hold, relaxes. Will's face, once scrunched and the very picture of discomfort, gradually eases.
Haunted by the trauma of his childhood, Willam Byers’s adult life is plagued by a nightmarish bout of seizures, fainting spells, and the most vivid hallucinations of all time—most of which, roused by his own senseless anxieties.
Michael Wheeler is no stranger to his best friend’s fragile state of mind. More often than not, he’s more than eager to help by any means he can, no matter how strangely he acts.
When Michael’s work-trip pulls them apart for a week... a dangerous, ancient, vampiric entity attaches onto William.

Summary
There's a rumor. Nothing serious, just a word of mouth that has been going for years at this point. Something that the new comers learn fast, and the students on their last year know as a fact that passes like time does. Inevitably.
Rumor that says that once a year, a student dies. Goes missing in truth, but dying has always been more dramatic choice. Only choice really, as the clues stop exactly when the student literally stops existing.
A young student. Gifted. One with a chance of lifetime.
And when all signs point to her? Guard will bend the fate if it saves her.

Summary
"What the fuck is happening, dude?" Gerard asks. The grip of Frank's hand on his is starting to hurt.
"It's on the news, Gee. They're saying it's a new epidemic and that it's contagious and it spreads fast, but no one can tell how you get it. People are going catatonic, or just acting fucking weird. Like that girl at the bar."
Gerard blinks against the darkness and he can't really wrap his mind around it. "But I'm fine."
"Yeah that's why I'm getting you out. The moment they find out you're special, you'll be a lab rat."
Gerard is sick. He can't eat, he can't go under the sun, his teeth feel wrong. Frank has seen enough horror movies to know where this is going. However, the kicker is that this one curse doesn't stem from hatred but grief, and removing the jinx might take a lot more than they're willing to give.
