It seemed like the answer to Haley Thurston’s prayers. The most popular girl in high school promised Haley that her life would change forever if only she performed certain dark rituals. And if Haley can convince her twin sister to participate, their power will double. Together they will be able to summon mystical entities they never dared dream of. But these are powerful, uncontrollable forces, forces that can kill — forces that demand to be fed.

From the Editors of Barnes and Noble:
When Keith Lafleur discovers that he can obtain a majestic old farmhouse for free — all he has to do is move it — he jumps at the opportunity. But the spot where he wants to place it is too small, so he splits the house in half and creates two separate buildings. After renovations, one house is rented by friends Laura Toups and Tawana Batiste, who open a salon on the first floor and live above the shop with Tawana’s mentally challenged cousin, Moweez. Matt Daigle rents the second structure, turning the ground floor into a cafe and living upstairs with his eight-year old son, Seth. But when unexplainable calamities start occurring — Lafleur becomes afflicted with necrotic lesions, Seth is tormented by children’s voices, Moweez begins drawing horrific premonitions, etc. — the inhabitants of the house divided must get to the bottom of the ghostly mystery before it’s too late. . . .

From the Editors of Barnes and Noble:
Michael Savoy, the director of a funeral home in Brusley, Louisiana, is looking forward to spending some much-needed downtime with his wife and young daughter at the family camp. All he has to do is get through a viewing and funeral for a beautiful 19-year-old woman tragically killed while riding a horse. The woman, Thalia Stevenson, was a Gypsy; during the crowded, chaotic viewing, Michael witnesses firsthand the bizarre rituals and incantations associated with Gypsy funerals. Just before the coffin is closed, a strange gold medallion is placed between Thalia’s hands. But when Michael’s father — a devious deadbeat who ran out on his family years earlier — steals the gold coin, he unleashes a supernatural horror that portends death without mercy if the medallion is not returned within two days.
