Owl House Au

In the heart of modern Cairo stands an ordinary residential tower… yet behind its walls lurk secrets darker than the night itself. House of Horror plunges into the psychological depths of characters who slowly unravel, transforming from ordinary people trying to survive… into beings haunted by hallucinations, crimes, and cursed truths. The story begins with a mysterious murder shaking the tower’s residents, and events unfold like an unstoppable rolling fire: Nasser, the father, commits the first crime in his home, igniting a chain of psychological terror and breakdowns. Malik, the son, becomes the focal point, trapped between a haunting past and horrifying truths that consume his mind, until he himself turns into a merciless monster. Sophia, his sorrowful sister, is swept into a vortex of fear and despair. Other characters’ paths intertwine inside the cursed house: Dima, Ghada, Rofan, security officers, tower residents… all threads in a dark tapestry driven toward a single fate: death or madness. Police officers fall into a maze of mysteries, entangled with corpses, investigations, cameras, and witnesses unaware that they are approaching a bloody end. Questions mount: Who is the killer? Who is the victim? Or is the house itself the true criminal? In this first part, the initial tragedy takes shape… and the curse begins. A high dose of psychological horror, suspense, and escalating drama drives the reader to hold their breath with every page. .....

I, Gianna Johnston, am born into a family of prodigies. My dad, Henry Johnston, is a computer science professor from Hafford University. My mom, Naomi Liddell, is a medical professor at Starvard University. And my brother, George Johnston, is an international math olympiad champion. Meanwhile, I'm barely passing my math classes at school. George gets so mad at me that he immediately writes down three full sets of math exam questions and exclaims, "You're so dumb that you're nothing but an embarrassment to Mom and Dad and me! "Don't you even think about leaving the house and embarrassing us again without completing all these math questions!" Mom then forces a few pills straight down my throat. Those pills are one of her inventions, called "smart pills". However, she doesn't care that I'm choking so hard on them that my eyes roll to the back of my head. "Stop using excuses, saying that you're tired or sleepy. These pills will keep you up for 24 hours without sleep. That should be enough time for you to complete all those math problems!" Dad then turns on "Strict Mode" on the smart house system, Domi. He says to me, "And don't even think about escaping the house to look for help. I will lock the door and cut off every signal going in or coming out. If you don't finish your work in time, nobody will even care if you die here!" After that, the three of them leave me behind and head off for their vacation in Hervaii. While shutting the door behind them, however, the vase of flowers full of water suddenly crashed into Domi's control panel. I'm choking so hard on the pills that I feel asphyxiated. I keep banging my fists against the front door for help. However, Domi, who has now short-circuited, keeps repeating, "Please complete your math questions, Gianna. Study hard and be a good student. "Study hard and be a good student. "Study hard and be a good student." I grip the sheets of math problems in my hands in agony. Will Mom, Dad, and George finally be happy when they see that I'm giving up my life for this?

Elle a voulu confronter son mari, Antoine Hérault. Mais ce qu'elle a entendu l'a glacée.

L'intégralité de l'héritage me revient. » Pauline a quitté la famille Hérault sans le moindre regret. Antoine, persuadé qu'elle n'avait nulle part où aller, a attendu tranquillement qu'elle revienne le supplier. Mais un jour, au détour d'une alliance annoncée dans tous les médias, il a vu son nom.

I had just given birth when the country sent me on a secret mission that kept me undercover for seven years. When it finally ended, I came home on leave. I was eager to see my husband and children, whom I had missed every single day. However, the moment my car stopped at the gate, I saw my two children—my most precious treasures—being shoved down the steps by a woman. They tumbled hard, and they were covered in bruises. The next second, three snarling wolfhounds were released from the house, and they pounced on the children with bared teeth. Fury surged through me, and I charged forward. I got the dogs away with a few swift kicks and punches. Amid the animals’ pitiful howls, my ten-year-old son instinctively shielded his sister. His young face was pale with fear. Meanwhile, my eight-year-old daughter snapped out of her daze and trembled as she urged me to leave. “Miss, run! You hurt her dogs, and if Dad finds out, he won’t let you get away with it!” I forced down my anger and gently said, “She set the dogs on you first. Even if your dad were here, he’d protect you just like I did.” I did not expect this to make their eyes instantly fill with tears. Alarmed, I was about to ask what was wrong when a woman’s arrogant voice rang out. “You vagrant! I have a close relationship with Martin Gray, and I’m also the lady of the Gray family! “You and these two brats who dirtied my house aren’t leaving in one piece today!” I froze for a second before I took a deep breath and called my husband. “Martin, who’s this woman proclaiming to be the lady of the Gray family? Where did she come from? You’d better have a good explanation for this. And tell me, when did the house I left for John and Katy get a new owner?”

Son père a trompé sa mère pendant leur mariage. Dévastée, celle-ci a sombré dans la dépression et s'est suicidée. La maîtresse a alors emménagé dans la maison avec ses deux enfants, prenant toute la place. Manon Robert, laissée seule, a été recueillie par une amie proche de sa mère. C'est ainsi qu'elle a grandi aux côtés de Lucas Leroux, son ami d'enfance. Sous le même toit, leur relation s'est tissée naturellement. Leur amour semblait aller de soi. Mais le jour de ses vingt-deux ans, alors qu'elle pensait que leur histoire allait enfin aboutir au mariage, Lucas a annoncé publiquement sa relation avec sa meilleure amie... Et elle ? Elle n'a eu droit qu'au titre de « petite sœur», devenant la risée générale. Aux yeux de Lucas, elle n'était qu'un parasite pitoyable, un chewing-gum collé au talon dont il ne parvenait pas à se débarrasser. Lui et ses amis la méprisent profondément. Tous lui conseillent d'ouvrir les yeux et de ne pas gaspiller les derniers restes de leur lien passé. Sa meilleure amie, pleine de bonnes intentions, va jusqu'à lui proposer de lui présenter un petit ami. Alors Manon décide de se tourner vers Julien Bernard, cet homme froid et inaccessible. Julien est justement celui que sa meilleure amie convoite depuis toujours celui qu'elle désire sans jamais avoir pu l'obtenir. Julien n'est pas seulement un chirurgien cardiaque de renommée mondiale, il est aussi l'héritier de la plus puissante famille de Norville, les Bernard. Il est un autre ami d'enfance de Manon, mais aussi... l'amour secret de sa demi-sœur. Julien déteste le côté capricieux et arrogant de Manon, il déteste son manque de retenue, et surtout, il déteste sa manière de manipuler. Mais voilà : la jeune fille est belle, vive, séduisante à en perdre la tête. Et lui... il n'est pas un homme vertueux. Attiré dès le premier regard, il s'est laissé prendre au jeu, en est devenu accro, incapable de s'en détacher. Il a fini par se soumettre entièrement à elle, devenant son unique chevalier.
