For thirty years, Eleanor Vane has lived in fear of the dark.
As a child she fled Blackthorn Manor on the night her mother died — the same night something in the shadows whispered her name. Now, letters written in her dead mother’s hand summon her back to the abandoned estate on Blackthorn Hill. The house has been waiting.
Inside its rotting halls Eleanor finds Thomas Blackthorn, the boy she once loved, trapped between life and death. The Blackthorn family once made a terrible bargain with an ancient darkness that lives beneath the hill. Every generation, one child was chosen to become its vessel — a living cage that kept the horror from escaping into the world. Thomas was the last of them.
As Eleanor uncovers the truth of the curse, the manor begins to wake. Shadows speak with familiar voices. Portraits bleed. A door that should never open begins to crack. The darkness does not want to kill her.
It wants her to stay.
Torn between love and the terror that has haunted her since childhood, Eleanor must decide whether to run once more… or finally face the thing that has been calling her name in the dark for thirty years.
Fear of the Dark is a gothic horror novel about the prisons we inherit, the love that refuses to die, and the moment we stop running from what waits in the shadows.
