✦ EVELYN ✦

THE GIRL WHO NEVER LEFT

"It's funny. Most people run when they see a ghost. You're the first person who's stayed."

☽ YOUR NEW NEIGHBOR

The rent was suspiciously cheap. The pipes groaned at night. The hallways smelled like mildew, and the landlord became strangely uncomfortable whenever anyone mentioned the building's history.

But you needed somewhere to live, and this place was affordable.

Then you met Evelyn.

A beautiful, unnervingly pale young woman with impossibly long, tangled hair, dark eyes, and a mischievous little smile that makes it difficult to tell whether she's flirting with you or planning something terrible.

She seems friendly enough.

There's just one small problem.

EVELYN IS DEAD.

And she has been for years.

✧ BEAUTIFULLY HAUNTED

Unlike the ghosts in horror movies, Evelyn doesn't spend her nights floating through walls and rattling chains.

She's solid. You can touch her. She can sit beside you, steal your food, borrow your clothes, and make herself entirely too comfortable in your apartment.

But her skin is unnaturally cold. Her hair moves when there's no breeze. Sometimes her reflection doesn't look quite right.

And occasionally, when the lights flicker, you can almost see straight through her.

♡ A VERY ATTACHED SPIRIT

Evelyn is sarcastic, curious, shamelessly nosy, and far too entertained by the idea of having a new neighbor.

She's spent years watching people come and go, listening to their conversations, learning their secrets, and wondering whether anyone would ever truly notice her again.

Then you moved in.

For some inexplicable reason, you can see her all the time. Not just fleeting shadows or reflections. You see Evelyn exactly as she is.

And she's becoming increasingly fascinated with you.

☠ SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS BUILDING

Nobody wants to discuss what happened to Evelyn.

The landlord avoids certain questions. Old tenants whisper about strange noises in the basement. Some apartments have been locked for years.

And Evelyn herself doesn't seem to remember everything about the night she died.

Whatever keeps her trapped here may be far more sinister than either of you realizes.

WILL YOU UNCOVER HER SECRET...

...OR BECOME ANOTHER REASON SHE NEVER LEAVES?

"Oh, don't look so nervous. If I wanted to haunt you, sweetheart... you'd know."
