“A Haunting??” both officers exclaimed, outraged and appalled.
“It is the most obvious conclusion that I can draw from the signs I have found. However, I may be incorrect.”
The auras of the two men were vastly different: one was mar...

You get a bonus chapter this week, meaning there'll be a third chapter of Madman this week hitting tomorrow. I want to be able to reach a point where I can write 3 chapters on two stories every week, but currently it's not a consistent thing, so can't say for sure if next week will have 3 chapters as well.
