Do ancient curses actually exist? Are there really such things as haunted bogs, ghosts, wayward spirits, the "Skin Walker"? Science and logic repeatedly say not. However, if you search these topics on your computer, you'll find countless videos and stories that cannot be explained any other way. Sure, some are fake, most of them maybe. But some indicate that there is more out there than we realize. Those who manage to find their way out of the haunted woods report life-changing experiences, often rife with regret. What they saw or heard can never be "unseen". "Whispers From The Haunted Woods" takes the reader into the realm of the unknown. Hidden in the north Georgia forests lie graves, remnants, faint traces of habitation, evidence that someone was there before the white settlers first came to North America. Places long forgotten and undisturbed. Ask the locals and they will tell you why they give these areas a wide berth. Something there could still be alive and active. Something that wants to be left alone. This is the story of a group of Boy Scouts gone rogue. Seeking an ill-gotten lost treasure, ignoring the danger signs, they decide to go off the main trail into the unknown of the deep woods. What they find, and, more importantly, what finds them, gives credence to the local's fears. Are ancient curses real? Yes they are!

All Hallows Hall is a rambling Tudor mansion on the edge of the bleak and misty Dartmoor. It is not a place many would choose to live. Yet the former Governer of Dartmoor Prison did just that. Now he's dead, and his children – long estranged – are set to inherit his estate. But when the dead man's family come to stay, the atmosphere of the moors seems to drift into every room.

And then, on the same morning the family decide to leave All Hallows Hall and never come back, their young son Timmy disappears – from inside the house. Does evil linger in the walls? Or is evil only ever found inside the minds of men?

"Eerie and addictive. . . . Like Wuthering Heights, The Whispering House is a melancholy novel, its characters filled with dark longings." — The New York Times Book Review From the acclaimed author of The Orphan of Salt Winds It was like holding a couple of jigsaw pieces in my palm, knowing there was a whole picture to be made, if I could only find the rest. Freya Lyell is struggling to move on from her sister Stella’s death five years ago. Visiting the bewitching Byrne Hall, only a few miles from the scene of the tragedy, she discovers a portrait of Stella—a portrait she had no idea existed, in a house Stella never set foot in. Or so she thought. Driven to find out more about her sister’s secrets, Freya is drawn into the world of Byrne Hall and its owners: charismatic artist Cory and his sinister, watchful mother. But as Freya lingers in this mysterious, centuries-old house, her relationship with Cory crosses the line into obsession and the darkness behind the locked doors of the estate threatens to spill out. In prose as lush and atmospheric as Byrne Hall itself, Elizabeth Brooks weaves a simmering, propulsive tale of art, sisterhood, and all-consuming love: the ways it can lead us toward tenderness, nostalgia, and longing, as well as shocking acts of violence.
