Before The Storm
A Collection of Celeste Novellas

BAD SEED
Feeling directionless, Rudy drives through the country in hopes of finding a place he belongs to. Things don’t go as planned, however, when his car breaks down in an isolated town. There, he meets Grace and instantly feels a connection with her. She tells him about Fall Creek and its heavy past, about all the disappearances. It is said that people flee this place without looking back, but Grace doesn’t buy it. Rudy quickly understands that if they don’t do anything to solve this mystery, Grace might just end up on one of the missing person flyers covering the town walls.
THE TWISTED LADY
Sick of feeling unloved and rejected, James leaves his mother’s house on an impulse. Problem is, he has no other relatives, no friends, and nearly no money. The people in the small town he grew up in know about him and his bad temper. James has no choice but to seek refuge in the abandoned house on River Road until he can figure out how to leave this town. He has heard the wild ghost stories kids like to tell about the house. He has heard it’s haunted. But these are nothing but rumors.
James is quickly proven wrong when nightmares about the house plague his dreams, and the entity lurking in the basement wakes up, fixated on him.
MAWTHORN ASYLUM
Riley is learning to navigate the world as an empath, which proves to be difficult, if not impossible. Students bully her at school, and she can’t seem to make herself look invisible to them. Fortunately, her dad is a paranormal investigator, and the prospect of investigating a haunted asylum with him and her dog, Pepper, is just what she needs to temporarily forget about her troubles. Although Rudy isn’t fond of the idea, Riley eventually convinces him to visit Mawthorn Asylum. From what she’s read, people have only witnessed mild, harmless paranormal phenomena. What could go wrong?
