DANNY PHANTOM x WEDNESDAY

Well, Denny Dragan sure messed up this time. Rather than find his missing sister, he accidetnally released a serial killer ghost.

To make things messier, he needs help from Guitar, a medium who would rather practice his cello than save lives.

Then the following words: THE UNDERWOOD TAPES x WEDNESDAY Denny Dragan sure messed up this time. While trying to find his missing sister, he accidentally released a serial killer ghost. Talk about a distraction! And to make things messier, he needs help from a medium who would rather let people die than help out strangers. lined paper that says to the left "Tropes/rep" that's circled in red then there is a paper taped to it with the following words: "Found Family Epistolary Interludes Rewind, Replay, Repeat Witchcraft Meddling Kids Missing Person Unsolved Mysteries & Urban Legends Ghostly Goals 90s Vibes" underneath is another paper taped with the following pride pins: Trans, Ace, Lesbian, progress pride" On the left it says "Comps" and is circled in red then has two film strips that go from top to bottom: Wednesday and her friend in a cemetery, the Mystery Gang in a small town, the Losers Club in a cemetery, the Dead Boy Detectives in a bunker then The Underwood Tapes by Amanda Dewitt with two people on the book cover with film around them; the Name of the STar by Maureen Johnson with the book cover featuring a faded park image; Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake with a book cover of a ghost girl walking through fog to a house; Dead Flip by Sara Fraizan with a book cover of an arcade and heads above it. Lined paper with an unspooled cassette tape at the top where it says "A snippet" circled in red and says the following: " Dear listener who is probably just Denny. I bet you’re chuckling now ‘cause I’m right, aren’t I? Anyway, this is my ‘in case I disappear’ tape but the rest is a real treat for you. It’s some impressive project I’ve been working on. Though if I am missing, tell mom it wasn’t the monsters, but I’m, like, studying archeology at some college where I’m on some research trip with the professor to find the amulet. Then really buckle down and be all like ‘You know, the amulet? How do you not know about the amulet? What kind of mom are you?’ until she cries or something then you can tell the truth. I want her to feel bad for always being ‘too busy.’"

Twins Kyra and Kaden don't talk about what happened over the summer. But as their classmates disappear into the Pines, they have to start facing up to their problems before they're next. The issue is, they don't know who to trust—not even each other.

Not even themselves.

#QuestPit #YA #W #H
a photo of pine trees surrounding a river, with the writing "a guide to The Killer of Canderley Creek by Arlen Ren" over it Kyra and Kaden Hawkins have had the summer from Hell. Kicked out by their mum, they've rejoined their dad in the town they grew up in, Canderley Creek, where two neighbourhoods straddle the estuary: the prosperous Pines and downtrodden Tides. Nothing has changed. Except for the twins. Now, as their classmates disappear into the woods, they have no-one to turn to, no-one to trust. Not even each other. Not even themselves. YA Horror WIP two chibi portraits of the main characters: a white gay trans boy with white hair with black bangs, and a white bi cis girl with black hair in bunches with white bangs. over a background of pine needles are the following themes: dual POV, horror whodunit, unreliable narrators, finding literal monsters instead of facing your problems, small town setting, there's something lurking beneath the earth Comp titles and themes: Fear Street by RL Stone, Good Girls Die First by Kathryn Foxfield, Bad Creek by Peyton June. Ancient malignant entities! Horror where you don't know who you can trust! Creepy forest/creek settings!

A collage of pictures, with a young male hand reaching out to grab them: a sword and knights helmet, someone casting a fire spell, an inviting path into the woods, a knight holding a sword, a mountain behind an old-fashioned house, a cloaked magic user, a white horse galloping, and a mountain range.
