Matt Campbell A Haunting In Connecticut Novelas e Histórias

His voice carried a quiet authority that made even the most brazen shudder. Matt flinched, the sweat starting to bead on his forehead. His throat bobbed as he swallowed hard, but he managed to shake his head. “No, Alpha. My explanation… it’s the truth. She texted me last night. I met up with her and she forced herself at me.” Ryan’s lips twitched, not quite a smirk but enough to show he wasn’t buying it. “Funny,” he said, his tone deceptively calm. “There are hidden cameras in this camp. One of them caught everything.”

"When it comes to gossip, nothing gets past me." At 11:00 PM, an understated luxury car pulled up at the school gates. Helena and Howard got out. Celeste and I had already set up snacks and drinks at the reading pavilion, waiting for them to settle down. After they arrived, Celeste cleared her throat. "Helena, what I'm about to tell you might sound unbelievable, but you have to believe me. I'm not crazy." In about ten minutes, Celeste laid out everything about my shadow. I chipped in with details to make the story as airtight as possible, hoping to make it seem as real as we could.

Alexander's voice rang in the phone. Amara breathed a sigh of relief but the next moment a dreadful consternation crossed her. "Alexander never calls her through the landline. He always makes it a point to ring her only on her mobile. The house's landline was often used by her grandfather. Every time Alexander calls, he does some arousing talk which is obviously not supposed to be heard by other members of the family yet today he calls on the landline? He doesn't know all the members in the house had gone to watch a movie and since it was Annabelle a ghost movie, Amara opted to stay at home. Alexander had left the house in his Benz today early in the morning to meet some of his friends.

“Didn’t we determine this place to be a church camp?” “Yeah, it’s one hundred percent a church camp.” “Who scouted this area?” “Damian did. I’ll get him in here.” Alastor’s eyes glazed over, his pupils dilated. “He’s on his way down.” “Great.” I yanked open my desk drawer and pulled out my laptop. As we waited for Damian to appear, I hastily searched a map for an aerial view of the camp. “You wanted to see me?” Damian stepped into the office with Iris following behind him.

“You’re officially a camper now.” “Almost.” Jenni crouches beside us. “We have to see if he can make it through the night.” “Are you sure you can stay out here all night?” I ask Hayden. “It can get pretty scary out here when it’s all dark and Gordon the Ghoul is wandering about.” “Who’s Gordon the Ghoul?” Hayden asks, settling onto one of the logs around the campfire. “You’ve never heard of him?” I lean closer to Hayden. “You know, Jenni here is terrified of him,” I stage whisper.

Rob informed him. “Perfectly timed because a camp with four campers has gone missing and we need to switch to him. You wouldn’t know about that, would you?” Hebbs asked. He didn’t believe for a minute Rob would know anything. They were human and Rob wasn’t. It couldn’t be for the same reason. The timing was just coincidental. “Nothing sorry. I don’t believe the two events are connected to the same incident.” Hebbs grunted in agreement on the other end of the phone call.

"I don't have time for a negotiation, Matthew." Caleb's voice. It was thin. Papery. Like he was talking through a throat full of glass. I stepped onto the gravel roof, ducking behind the massive HVAC vents. The wind whipped my hair across my face. It tasted like rain and salt. I pulled my phone out. Hit record. Caleb was leaning against the edge of the roof. He looked like a ghost in a hospital gown. His shoulder was soaked red. His face was gray. Standing ten feet away from him, draped in a charcoal overcoat that probably cost more than my father’s first house, was Matthew Collins.

Campbell was still talking when a message entered her phone and after reading it, she decided to order them out. "That was my cue to send you both out and prepare the corpse." She explained, gesturing at the CCTV camera with her eyes. Katherine bit her lower lip as she tried to conceal the anger that was burning her chest. "I will get a warrant for your boss to be questioned. You can't send this corpse anywhere yet. We must find out what happened to the missing part." She instructed but Dr. Campbell just smiled. "That won't help since the owner of the corpse has no problem with it. Detective, I only called you because you wanted me to keep you updated not because you can do anything about it

But I was not alone. That afternoon, I did something I never thought I would do. I looked for Matthew. Damon was in his study. He did not know what I was doing. He thought I was reading. I was not reading. I was on my phone, scrolling through old records, old articles, old photos. It took me three hours. Matthew Hales. Born twenty three years ago. Last known address in Seattle, Washington. He went to college. Got a degree in engineering. He worked for a tech company. He had a girlfriend. Her name was Emily.

My hand hovered over the block button when the next text came in. “Six years ago. March 15th. Threston, Rhode Island." My blood ran cold. March 15th. The day Matt died. “How do you know that? Who are you?!!" I typed back frantically. Five minutes passed. Then another five. I bit my nails in frustration. “HELLO?!" I typed but another five minutes passed before a reply came in. “You need to leave Luca. Now." There was a vise tightening around my gut. A suspicion growing at the back of my mind. A suspicion I was desperately pushing down.
