Haunted

By: Patrick Wallace

Narrated by: Hannah LaVoie

Ellie Hawthorne doesn’t believe in ghosts. But that doesn’t mean she isn’t haunted…

A young physics professor fighting to keep her lab afloat, Ellie is one funding cut away from losing everything she’s worked for. So when a paranormal society offers her a generous grant in exchange for a three-night investigation of the mysterious Bruker House in northern Maine, she reluctantly accepts.

At the secluded estate, Ellie’s skepticism clashes with the investigators’ unorthodox beliefs. As they uncover the house’s dark history together—the unexplained disappearances, the occult symbols carved into its walls, and a malevolent presence that blurs the line between reality and nightmare—Ellie remains in denial.

Until she’s the only one left.

Alone in Bruker House, Ellie discovers the darkness not only surrounds her but has taken root within her, forcing her to confront memories she’s long kept buried. To escape, she must face both the evil that stalks the halls and the ghosts of her own past… or share the fate of those who entered before her.

In his debut novel, Patrick Wallace weaves a chilling tale of science clashing with belief, wounds that won’t stay closed, and the things we carry into the dark. A gripping psychological horror with suspense, dread, and a haunting finale. Fans of The Haunting of Hill House and A Head Full of Ghosts will be obsessed.
