Klappentext

UNCLAIMED

For Stan and his friends, it was supposed to be nothing more than a fun night out.

A local haunted attraction seemed like the perfect place to spend an evening looking for cheap thrills and a few good scares. The kind of place where the monsters are actors, the screams are part of the show, and everyone goes home laughing.

They were wrong.

What begins as an ordinary night quickly spirals into something far darker when Stan, Jorge, Julie, and Anita encounter a mysterious figure who should not exist. A shadowy presence seems to follow them from one place to the next, appearing where it shouldn't be and knowing things it has no right to know. At first, they dismiss the strange events as tricks of the imagination, but it doesn't take long before they realize they are being hunted.

As panic sets in, the four friends flee into the night in search of safety. Instead, they stumble upon a place that feels forgotten by time itself-a funeral home standing alone in the darkness.

Inside, nothing feels right.

The halls are too quiet.

The shadows seem to move when no one is looking.

Doors lead to places they shouldn't.

And every room holds another piece of a mystery that grows more disturbing with each passing minute.

The funeral home is home to a strange mortician named Mr. Vale, a man who appears helpful yet seems to know far more than he should about the frightened teenagers who have suddenly appeared at his door. As Stan and his friends search for answers, they uncover clues pointing to a terrifying truth hidden beneath the surface of their ordinary lives.

A black book filled with names.

Whispers from unseen voices.

A family secret connected to an ancient evil.

And four toe tags waiting for four specific people.

When Stan discovers that one of the tags bears a single chilling word-UNCLAIMED-he is forced to confront a question he never imagined asking:

Why is his name there?

The deeper the group digs into the mystery, the more they realize they may have been connected to these events long before they ever stepped inside the funeral home. The forces pursuing them are older than they can comprehend, and escaping may require more than courage. It may require discovering who they truly are and why they have been chosen.

As reality begins to bend around them, friendships will be tested, loyalties questioned, and every answer will lead to even greater dangers. The line between the living and the dead grows thinner with every passing hour, and the thing pursuing them refuses to give up its claim.

Fast-paced, suspenseful, and packed with supernatural mystery, Unclaimed combines the tension of classic horror with the emotional stakes of a coming-of-age thriller. Readers will find themselves drawn into a world where every shadow hides a secret and every revelation raises new questions.

The first installment in the Unclaimed series introduces a cast of unforgettable characters and a mythology that expands far beyond a single haunted night. What begins as a desperate fight for survival soon becomes something much larger-a battle against forces that have been watching from the darkness all along.

Perfect for fans of supernatural thrillers, haunted mysteries, and young adult horror adventures, Unclaimed delivers chilling suspense, relentless twists, and a story that will keep readers turning pages late into the night.

Because some names can be forgotten.

Some names can be erased.

And some names are still waiting to be claimed.
