🖤Simone is Haunted & Hexed in THE TRUTH OF FEAR

#Spec Upper #YA Crossover #NA Feminist Horror + Romance #S #H #R #QuestPit

This curse doesn’t keep Simone from wanting to put her hands on Jadriel.

Good and cruel gods *all* she wants is to touch him, even if it burns her from the inside out.

But if she lets him kiss her, it'll kill him.
Unless her cousin’s vengeful spirit ends him first.

Like THE BENT NECK LADY:

The Drowning Girl haunted Simone's dreams long before Nina was murdered

She feared her cousin's spirit was stuck in a trauma loop, reliving her violent death—but one should never summon the dead

Now they call her vengeful ghost #TheEastRiverWraith

#GhostPit #YA #SPEC #H

She’s beautiful in ALL her gore.

Like Halloween past, dressed up as a little dead girl.
Nina was cute & creepy & made me dress as something fiendish too—so we’d be scarier than all the ghouls
Then maybe they wouldn’t notice us
But they always do
No matter what we’re wearing
👻
