The Cottage | a dark fairytale short story

My most popular short horror story to date, “The Cottage,” is now available as a free audiobook!

In “The Cottage,” Charlotte Gurdy embarks on a spontaneous road trip to break free from her small-town life, only to find herself stranded at a mysterious gas station. When her car tire goes flat, she sets off in search of help, only to stumble upon a hidden cottage that seems to exist outside the realm of reality. Inside, she encounters an eerie old woman named Rose and her strange companion, Chester, who harbor dark secrets and a sinister past involving lost children.

As Charlotte uncovers the chilling truth behind Rose’s twisted obsession with capturing the souls of the young, she realizes she must confront the evil that binds them. With the clock ticking and her own life at stake, Charlotte devises a daring plan to save not only herself but the spirits of the children trapped by Rose’s malevolence.

Will Charlotte outsmart the wicked Rose and break the curse that binds the souls of the innocent, or will she become just another victim in this haunting tale? Dive into this gripping story of survival, courage, and the fight against darkness, where every decision could mean the difference between life and death.
