Guilty Town

Welcome to Chandrakund. You’ll never leave in silence. When journalist Julie Joseph arrives in the abandoned mining town of Chandrakund, she’s searching for answers. Decades ago, the entire population vanished, leaving only eerie remnants of their lives behind. Old cassette tapes, found in the crumbling town hall, hold the final confessions of the residents—and the truth about the entity that doomed them. They call it The Sound, a force awakened deep within the mines, a predator that hunts not with teeth but with whispers. It knows your secrets, your guilt, and your grief, and it won’t stop until it consumes you. As Julie uncovers the town’s chilling history, her own painful past resurfaces. The Sound isn’t just manipulating the shadows of Grey Hollow—it’s digging into her mind, twisting her memories, and reviving the guilt she’s tried to bury for years. Time is running out. Trapped between the echoes of Chandrakund’s past and the whispers of her own trauma, Julie must face a horrifying truth: silence isn’t just an absence—it’s alive. In The Silent Town, the line between the living and the lost is blurred, and every sound could be your last. Perfect for fans of Stephen King and Shirley Jackson, this supernatural thriller will leave you questioning every creak, whisper, and silence in the dark.

A high ceiling, adorned with intricate carvings and fanciful decor. A warm golden light passing through stained glass highlighting the beauty of justice and righteous valour- a contrast to the maleficent beings that would often face this light- illuminates the room. Upon a raised dais, there is a displeased king, and by his side, stern-faced nobles and court officials stare down menacingly at the accused. Below these extinguished figures, bounded by chains and covered in grime, was a six-year-old girl.

The entire house of Vespera, your family and lineage, has been wrongfully slain by a treacherous prisoner of theirs. We have reason to believe you have conspired with the ungrateful fiend, betraying your own blood and committing treason against our liege. How do you answer? Are you guilty or not guilty of this heinous crime?" "Not guilty." "Not guilty? Very well. You shall-" "I killed them myself. Not the dragon, only I." Murmurs erupted among the usually unperturbed high-class nobles. "Is it not according to law that a bloodline inheritor may kill all other potential heirs?
