The Catalyst Box Set #1

Jack Erikson doesn’t have great expectations when his mother moves them to an old decrepit inn in a town just as musty, but he’s unprepared for the oddities that start springing out of the rotten woodwork. New friends introduce him to legends and rumors that have swirled around the inn since time-immemorial, and he finds plenty of proof to believe them as strange noises and twisted shadows stalk the halls.


Worst of all, his estranged grandfather has invited himself to join them at the inn. Creepy doesn’t begin to describe that black-cloaked gentleman with the pale skin and weird, ever-constant glasses. Old secrets, mysterious sealed-up rooms and creeping shadows abound as Jack tries to manage his new life at Hawthorn Inn.


Hawthorn Inn is the first in a five novel horror/supernatural thriller series featuring Jack Erikson, a normal teenager with not-so-normal secrets.


Freed from his grounding, Jack Erikson finds himself shackled to the egotistic Ryan de Rais, son to one of the investors financing the opening of Hawthorn Inn. Add to the mix the inn’s first guest, the strange Arthur Smith, and he has his hands full when his friend Kyle Skinner reappears.


Their explorations into the town’s history and the wood’s mysteries lead them to dead animals and a haunting secret.


As the Halloween party looms and a new danger preys upon the inn, Jack wonders if this time they’ll all make it out alive.


The shadows lengthen and the danger deepens over the town of Sanctuary even as Jack makes new allies. Disembodied screams and rumors of curses abound as the mystery of the valley and its inhabitants grows ever larger.


Ghost Woods is the third in a five novel horror/supernatural thriller series featuring Jack Erikson, a normal teenager with not-so-normal secrets.
