Claire Monroe’s dreams of becoming a celebrated writer seem out of reach—until she inherits an isolated cottage and the literary estate of her mysterious Aunt Eleanor, a reclusive author who perished under strange circumstances.

The cottage itself harbors an ancient malevolence, a presence that haunts her every move, twisting her thoughts and consuming her creative energy.

Frightwritten is a chilling tale of ambition, legacy, and the thin veil between reality and nightmare. As Claire’s grip on her sanity slips, she must finish what Eleanor started—before the story finishes her.
