When Emily's mother sends her to Ashley Hall School-a prestigious boarding school for girls-she expects strict teachers, new friends, and the usual struggles of fitting in. What she doesn't expect is Gia: a witchy classmate obsessed with Voodoo, Ouija boards, and the thrill of the unknown. On a reckless dare, Emily and Gia break into a condemned building hidden on campus. Among the dust and shadows, they discover a video cassette stuffed inside an old heating vent. The footage reveals a shocking truth: forty years earlier, a group of students deliberately cursed Ashley Hall... and invited something dark to linger. What begins as a game soon awakens a spirit tied to Emily's own buried past. A séance meant for fun spirals into terror as the girls confront a force that refuses to stay forgotten. Blending the atmosphere of gothic ghost stories with a chilling reimagining of Frankenstein, The Haunting of Ashley Hall School is a coming-of-age horror tale about secrets, memory, and the price of playing with the supernatural. Perfect for fans of haunted school settings, dark academia, and anyone who loves being deliciously scared. Proudly represented by Crystal Cove Press, a division of Crystal Lake Publishing-Where Stories Come Alive!
