By Will Shindler
Chasing Demons
A haunting horror-thriller where buried trauma claws its way back into the light.
When Joel Sampson’s former therapist is found murdered in the same grotesque manner as the massacre he survived twenty‑three years ago, he’s dragged back to the town he swore he’d never return to.
Tayborough hasn’t forgotten what happened – and neither has Joel’s fractured memory. As more bodies appear, suspicion turns toward him, and even he begins to fear what he might be capable of.
Desperate for answers, Joel starts his own investigation, uncovering signs that something supernatural may be binding the past to the present — and that someone might be manipulating the darkness that has shadowed his life.
To save himself and those he loves, Joel must confront the demons he’s spent decades trying to outrun.
