1918

The First World War is over – but some horrors don't stay on the battlefield.

Wallace Demeter returns home from the trenches of Europe broken in body and mind. The world he knew is gone. His once-prosperous family is now clinging to the edge of ruin, their lives overshadowed by the looming presence of Hadlow House – a place where grief festers and old ghosts linger.

His sister has grown strange, gripped by dreams she can't explain, as if something – or someone – is calling to her from the depths of the house. And Wallace himself is haunted by more than just the war. In the chaos of battle, he saw her: a woman, pale and spectral, moving through smoke and death. He tried to forget. He hoped it was a hallucination.

But he's home now. And so is she.

1918 is the eighth instalment in The Haunting of Hadlow House, a gothic horror epic tracing the dark, unbroken legacy of a house that feeds on loss, madness, and memory. Because some spirits don't need walls to haunt you – and some wounds never stop bleeding.
