In a world where nothing supernatural exists, Tess Eckhart is positive she's going crazy. After her complete freak-out at a high school party, her family is too. So much that they pack their bags and move across the country, next to a nationally-renowned facility for the mentally ill. Tess is determined to fit in at her new school, despite the whispers and stares. But when it comes to Luka Williams, a reluctantly popular boy in her class, she's unused to a stare that intense.

Zombies in Casper Creek? Say it ain’t so. Unfortunately, it looks to be true...and Hannah Hickok and her motley crew of helpers have a mess on their hands. As Cooper Wyatt struggles with the perfect way to propose, his girlfriend is buried in zombie lore...and seemingly having a good time digging up solutions. The bodies are rising from two different cemeteries, one so old it hasn’t seen a new resident in 30 years. Why, though?

Luka isn't dead. He's not beyond saving. Tess knows because she saw him with her own eyes. After what she saw, she's sure of one thing: If they don't rescue him soon, Luka won't be Luka anymore. If only she could convince the other members of the hub. They're not sure Tess saw what she claims she saw. And they're preoccupied by the fact that their kind is being systematically eradicated. Answers lie in an ancient prophecy, one that revolves around a 17-year-old girl who never asked for any of this.

Tess Eckhart isn't crazy. She's not suffering from psychosis. She and Luka Williams are part of The Gifting. Before they can find out what that means, the man with all the answers turns up dead. The only thing he left behind? A few patient files that lead to the nation's most lawless city.

Hannah Hickok is looking forward to her first Christmas in Casper Creek. She has plans for cookies, cuddles with her fiancé Cooper Wyatt, and a visit from Chris Kringle. Instead, the man who visits isn’t the one Hannah was inspecting. No, it’s her former fiancé Michael…and he’s arrived with an agenda. Michael has more attitude than brains, and he’s ready to make life difficult for Hannah…right up to the point where his new fiancée is killed and her body goes missing from the morgue.

Hannah Hickok and Cooper Wyatt are newly engaged, and ready to celebrate. Cooper just didn’t think the celebration would involve a hike to a long-abandoned boom town called Blackridge. He had something more romantic in mind. Despite that, he agrees, and believes the trip will be fine - right up until they stumble across a homeless man, warning them away from their destination. He's more than a ghost. He’s more than a shadow. He’s a monster who can straddle two worlds. And he needs Hannah to lift the curse that has kept him trapped for a century.

Now that she’s absorbed the power of the Casper Creek nexus, Hannah Hickok is a witch on a mission. Her new powers require regular venting, and she’s surpassed even her limited expectations. It’s not magic on her mind when her father comes for a visit, though. Brad Hickok has always wanted to see Casper Creek, and now that he gets to visit, he’s extremely excited. He’s not alone, though. He’s brought his new girlfriend...and Hannah is thrown for a loop by her appearance.

Casper Creek is a town in flux. Contractors are on the scene making plans for the new restaurant, owner Hannah Hickok is plotting ridiculous couple’s costumes for the Halloween party, and there’s a new demon in town. Instead of coming after Hannah directly, the demon does an end-run around the witch and starts possessing the area children…and sending them into a frenzy. Through a fluke, Hannah manages to put an end to the first attack. Unfortunately, a wave of them are set to follow.

Hannah Hickok was looking for adventure when she inherited Casper Creek from her grandmother. She got more than she was bargaining for. Now she’s grappling with two ancient sister witches, both of whom are inhabiting the bodies of others, and a war is brewing. Hannah knows she has to fight on the side of good, but she’s not certain their ally has anybody’s best interests at heart, and it has her faltering. On top of everything, there’s a new demon on the loose and he appears to have joined sides with the dark witch who wants to end them all.

Hannah Hickok is struggling. After the death of one of her workers, a woman who had been making life difficult, Hannah finds she is awash in a myriad of feelings she can’t quite put a name to. Things don’t get better when, following a romantic dinner with her boyfriend, Cooper Wyatt, magic and mechanics collide in a multi-vehicle accident that looks to have been caused by a dark shadow. One of the survivors, a young teenager, could be shuffled into the system if someone doesn’t step up.

Life is going well for Hannah Hickok. Her business - a cosplay western town in Kentucky - is thriving and she’s even interviewing bartenders so she can finally take on different duties in her new world. All that comes to a screeching halt when a guest grabs what’s supposed to be a prop gun and fires it at another guest during an altercation. Suddenly, death is calling in Casper Creek...and it’s wearing many masks. In short order, an FBI agent is put in charge of the case, Casper Creek is shut down, and Hannah and Cooper are plunged into a sundry world of magical creatures.

Hannah Hickok didn’t know she was a witch, but now that she’s embracing her destiny she can’t wait to learn about magic. Given the trouble that seems to find Casper Creek on a regular basis, that’s probably a good thing. Cooper Wyatt is there to lend a helping hand but also eager for her to strike out on her own...until the unthinkable happens. On their first official date, Cooper and Hannah bear witness to a horrifying scene. A local woman, who had gone missing days before, jumps off a downtown building and kills herself. The question is: Why?

Hannah Hickok is slipping into her new life as owner of Casper Creek - a cosplay western town - and newly-minted witch. She thinks she has everything under control...until demons come calling. At first, she’s not even certain what she’s dealing with. A freak accident claims the life of a father, leaving him exposed during a sudden sandstorm, and his son’s reaction (complete with glowing red eyes) leaves a lot to be desired. Cooper Wyatt, head of security for the resort, wants to believe her when she explains what she saw but it’s not exactly easy for him.

I'd been living on the streets for around eight months before I lost count. It wasn't easy, but it was still preferable to what I had to deal with at home. In all that time, unable to trust anyone, I had been alone (I knew from experience that people always failed you). Then one day, while out searching for food, I stumbled upon this mangy dog being attacked. It wasn't a big deal to help him, but then he ended up saving my life which is when I realized there was something special about him: Muttface wasn't a normal dog - he was crazy intelligent.

For three years, Dana Sinclair has been nursing a broken heart. The last thing she needs is the reason for her heartache to come waltzing back into her life again. Ever since Sam Treverton broke Dana's heart, he's been craving redemption, but with no real way to get it until the local veterinary clinic in Whisper Falls goes up for sale. Now that they're living in the same small town, can Dana and Sam navigate the choppy waters of broken hearts and long-held regrets?

He’ll get what he came for, no matter how many bodies he has to step over. Collin Wells is relentless and ruthless, and he’ll stop at nothing to get what he wants: his foster sister, the girl who always manages to slip through his fingers. Holly’s foster brother has haunted her footsteps for years - taunting her, toying with her - and until recently, she never dared to stop running and build a life for herself. Now, everyone she loves is in danger. How can she protect the people she loves when her foster brother comes to collect?

Collin Wells is no ordinary foster brother. He is evil wrapped in human skin - a living, breathing nightmare, and when he steps back into Holly's life, she's faced with a choice: trust the people who claim they can keep her safe, or trust the instincts that have kept her alive for the past 14 years. As the threads of her life begin to unravel around her - leaving her terrified, displaced from her home, and caught in the middle of a drug battle - she can't help but wonder if she made the wrong choice.

Hannah Hickok is about to get everything she ever wanted, including a husband, a house, and all the magic she can wave a hex at. She just has to get through the final battle to get her happily ever after. It won’t be as easy as she’s hoping. She’s determined, though, and the end is finally here. One way or another.

With sadness, Tori Cannon learns that the bait shop and small motel her grandparents ran has fallen on hard times. Jammed into one of the motel's units is a body, his mouth filled with spikes. Tori's friend, Kathy, arrives to help spruce up the property, and the two find themselves mixed up in the petty jealousies and deadly consequences that murder entails. Can they save the bait shop and find a murderer or will they, too, sleep with the fishes?

Adamic is the language of the Gods. When spoken, it has the power to create worlds, to raise the dead, to make man as God. Fortunately, no one has spoken it in thousands of years. The only remnants are the written spells. The people of Cavernum depend on these spells. They’re etched into the city walls, fending off the feeders—dangerous creatures with a taste for human blood. They’ve hunted the Cavernic people nearly to extinction, feasting on the magic in their veins.
