You Bought a Souvenir. It Bought You Back.

 


You Bought a Souvenir. It Bought You Back.



What if the scariest place in town wasn’t the basement… but the gift shop?


In The Gift Shop of Cursed Souvenirs, the museum in Briar Hollow looks normal at first. Tourists laugh, kids beg for snow globes, and shelves are packed with shiny obsidian spheres. But something tall and antlered walks the aisles after closing time. It doesn’t steal. It chooses. Every object in that shop carries a piece of regret, and when someone buys one, the curse travels with them. No one realizes they are taking home more than a memory.


Rowan thought he understood fear. He faced the forest that wasn’t Texas. He stood in a doorway that led somewhere impossible. But now the rules have changed. The cursed items are spreading beyond the museum walls, and something ancient is watching him like he is part of the deal. The Harvester is no longer testing the town. It’s negotiating. And Rowan might be the price.


This is gothic horror that creeps instead of screams. It bends reality in quiet ways—reflections that move too late, bruises shaped like antlers, and a gift shop that feels alive. If you love psychological horror, cryptids, and stories that stay in your mind long after you close the book, this one is for you.

How the Glow of Christmas Lights Can Actually Change Your Life (and Your Energy!)

 How the Glow of Christmas Lights Can Actually Change Your Life (and Your Energy!) Have you ever looked at a strand of Christmas lights and felt… calmer? Happier? Almost like they’re alive? You’re not imagining it. Light has power — real, emotional, and even spiritual power. And in The Magick of Christmas Lights, author Matthew Petchinsky shows us how those twinkling bulbs can do more than decorate — they can heal, protect, and manifest. This isn’t your average holiday guide. It’s a journey through what our ancestors already knew: light is sacred. Long before electricity, people used candles and fire to call in warmth, love, and safety through the coldest months. Now, every strand of lights is like a spell made visible — a ritual we already practice without realizing it. Matthew reveals how different colors carry different kinds of energy. Red brings courage. Green calls prosperity. Gold invites joy. Blue brings peace. Even multicolored lights balance everything — like harmony in b...
