  • Dark Halls - A Horror Novel

    Jeff Menapace

    eBook (Mind Mess Press, Oct. 31, 2019)
    From the bestselling author of the Bad Games and Wildlife series comes a chilling new novel of supernatural horror and suspense. Highland Elementary has a dark and disturbing pastβ€”so disturbing that locals ultimately burned the school to the ground.Years later, Pinewood Elementary is the future, and for new teacher Ryan Herb, a chance at a fresh start. But the townspeople don’t believe that rebuilding the school and changing its name is enough. They believe that whatever evil inhabited the halls of Highland still dwells in Pinewood.Ryan is a realist and isn’t the type to be affected by local lore. But when Ryan begins to experience horrifying visions of past tragedies, he starts to question his own beliefs. Something in the school is reaching out to Ryan for help, a potentially lethal request as something elseβ€”or someone else?β€”in the school is keen on keeping the evil therein very much alive. Can a skeptical Ryan unearth the origins of the evil’s true source and put an end to it? Or will he, like many before him, become a permanent resident of the school himself? Rife with supernatural terror and intrigue, Dark Halls blurs the lines between horror and mysteryβ€”a whodunit that, when solved, proposes the even greater question of: how do you stop it?

The Lambert Family is heading to Crescent Lake, a rural cabin community in Western Pennsylvania, for an idyllic weekend getaway. Some fishing, some barbecue, some games... The Fannelli brothers are heading to Crescent Lake too. Some stalking, some kidnapping, some murder, and definitely some games...though not necessarily the type of games the Lamberts had in mind. But it doesn't matter. The Lamberts are going to play whether they like it or not. Vengeful Games: The Lambert family played the Fannelli brothers' twisted game and survived. Showed the brothers they'd messed with the wrong family. However, the game is far from over. There are some new players in town. Players who have close ties to the Fannelli brothers. Players who are taking things very personally...and promising results that are very deadly. Hellbent: A year has passed. Marine and security specialist Domino Taylor shadows the Lambert family, the guilt he feels for the tragic events that unfolded in Western Pennsylvania haunting him without mercy. When someone from Domino's past contacts him, begging for his help, Domino reluctantly agrees, not knowing the sinister truth lying in wait: There is one final game yet to play. Malevolent: After years of silence, the game is back on. Widower Allan Brown is hosting a support group in his home for the bereaved. One of the guests in attendance will be Amy Lambert, this week marking the five-year anniversary of her family's horrifying ordeal at Crescent Lake. Of course, it's hardly cause for celebration. Still, some unwanted guests plan on attending the support group to help Amy celebrate all the same.... Psychopath: A decade has passed. Caleb's increasingly violent temper sees him discharged from the Marine Corps. Carrie is failing at her second attempt at college. Aftermath, it would seem, plays the cruelest game of all. The only plus is Amy Lambert's success as a best-selling author, chronicling her family's horrific ordeals over the years. But is it a success? It has brought some unwanted attention Amy's way. Two fledgling killers who happen to idolize the late and infamous serial killers Arty and Jim Fannelli have been paying attention and these two killers are eager to show the Lamberts just how much they truly admire their idols...with the help of Arty and Jim themselves? Find out how such a horrifying prospect comes to fruition in the fifth and final book in the series, and prepare yourself for the game to end all games.
