Bookroo's summary

In a world where fears manifest, a simple Lava Game becomes a nightmare, a ghost haunts an old lodge, and a boy discovers he's not alone at home. Six-year-old Brandon dreads the stairs, where a man only he sees waits. As his mother watches, a scream shatters the night. These stories explore the thin line between reality and terror, leaving you questioning what lurks in the shadows. Will you dare to uncover the truth behind these eerie encounters?

Our greatest fears are brought to life in this collection of spine-chilling tales. An ordinary round of the Lava Game turns terrifying. An old lodge for loggers is haunted by a miserable ghost. A boy thinks he’s home alone until he finds evidence someone else is there with him.
