In The Works: A Shelf For Paranormal Stories


IG Post: here

Episode is asking for stories where the characters have supernatural abilities. What would you recommend for this shelf? Try not to suggest ones that have won contests or already been featured :kissing_heart:

When I think paranormal. I’m thinking spirits, ghost, ouija boards. But, I’m assuming this means fantasy?

I’m not sure if these have been on a shelf, but
Evocation by Sofia
Believe Me by Writtenby.Alex (Not sure if this is discounted, but it fits this shelf.)

Thank you for this thread, again. :raised_hands:t5: It’s nice to have a place I can comment on without the fear of my comment getting drowned on instagram.

Some recommendations off the top of my head:

  • American Folklore by Em Sandigo.
  • LOUD and The Frontier by @TheRealKayElle
  • Deus Ex Machina by @episodebard
  • FALLEN & Kings of the Crescent by @astoldby.lg
  • Shroud by Dina D. Quixote

I’ll be coming in to add anymore I remember! :yellow_heart:

Shroud is a yes, even though I’m too scared to read it, it is really good,

American Folklore by Em Sandigo.
LOUD by Kay Elle.
Deus Ex Machina by Livia the Bard.
Kings of the Crescent by LG.
The Deathless by Alvar.

Not entirely sure about whether one of these fits the prompt. It sounds like it just needs to have a supernatural element? But… I don’t understand if it counts when the setting is fantasy.

As always, will add more if they occur to me. :sparkles:

I love these shelf ideas! Most of the stories I can think of were already featured, but I have two favourites that still need that recognition:

Supernatural Desire by JemU776
Subverted by Epithet

Aw I wish EarlGrey was still working on Death’s Game!

But I love @Caitoriri’s Insomnia! My best friend recommended it to me and I’ve read it 3 or 4 times :relieved:

Would this shelf be inclusive of all fantasy-themed stories?

Definitely Subverted by Epithet and Your silhouette by Anya.

Definitely 666 Miles by mysoxlike2party (I think that’s their app name? Their ig is ashadystory)

I read this today and I’m just mad at myself for not reading it before :see_no_evil: I recommend it to everyone and I hope it’ll be featured

Theriomorph by Nodira definitely fits!

Bump so that there’s more suggestions in time for Halloween (?) I suspect they want more spooky paranormal stories rather than fantasy ones :eyes:

Maneater by Kenia is great for this shelf too!

I thought finding stories for this shelf would be way easier but every story I found is either: a contest winner, a story everyone already read or hasn’t been updated since 2018 :pensive:
