The Haunted Night
(2021)(The second book in the Visited by Dreamscape series)
A Novella by Louise Worthington
Fear increases incrementally with the surge of the wind wrapping itself like a tongue around the pine trees. She closes her eyes to the searing panic as the path winds itself one way and another, up and down, each one into a deeper, darker part of the wood.
The Haunted Night is an atmospheric tale of despair and melancholy as a mother searches and finds her missing daughter in the neighbouring wood. One of seven short stories in the Visited by Dreamscape Series, sold as individual stories and as a collection.
Visited by Dreamscape is a creative, chilling and dark collection of seven gothic-inspired short stories which deliver killer endings. Beautifully crafted with arresting imagery, weaving the everyday with the horror of our deepest and darkest nightmares, these stories are perfect for those who enjoy the works of Poe, Lovecraft, Ligotti, Stephen King, Clive Barker and Angela Carter, Shirley Jackson and Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
Visited by Dreamscape provides the stuff of nightmares in bite-sized packages too tantalizing to resist.
