Crossroads

Seventy-nine people watched a boy die live on Twitch.

It was supposed to be a dare—
a late-night livestream inside the abandoned Walker house, a place everyone in Eastland County knew better than to enter.

When the floor gave way, the feed went dark.
The video vanished within hours.

The house did not.

Emmy Moore knows the death wasn’t an accident.

Drawn back to the Walker house by something she can’t explain, she feels it waiting beneath the rotted floorboards—
something old enough to be patient.

Her grandmother warned her to stay away.

The land remembers.
And the house always takes something in return.

With only her instincts—and the fierce loyalty of her one-eyed dog, Patch—Emmy steps inside.

What she finds isn’t just a haunting.

It’s a legacy.
And it isn’t finished with her.

Because some places don’t let you leave unchanged.
