When the Ceiling Starts Watching You…

 


When the Ceiling Starts Watching You…



What would you do if the crack above your bed wasn’t just a crack? In The Stag in the Ceiling, the horror doesn’t live under the bed — it waits above you. Rowan begins to notice thin lines spreading across his bedroom ceiling, branching out like antlers. At night, the room feels taller. Colder. Like something is standing upside down, just out of sight. This isn’t a loud, jump-scare kind of story. It’s quiet. Slow. The kind that makes you check your ceiling before you sleep.


But this isn’t just about a monster. It’s about rules. When Rowan says the words, “We do not consent,” the house reacts. The museum below his room shakes like it heard him. The air turns sharp. Reality bends. Something ancient listens — and something even darker presses closer. The stag doesn’t just scare people. It studies them. It tests their fear. It wants to know where they break.


This book blends gothic horror with psychological tension. There’s no random violence — just growing dread. The kind that creeps into your thoughts and stays there. It asks a chilling question: What happens when the thing haunting you becomes aware that you’re resisting?


If you love horror that makes you think, feel, and question what’s real, The Stag in the Ceiling is coming soon. And after you read it, you may never look up the same way again.
