TENEBRA UNIVERSE
MAIN SET
TENEBRA: RELEASED 2022
GENRE: Horror / TYPE: Thriller / COST: $19.99/ PAGES: 164
TENEBRA was very easy to write because it was born from fiction as well as non-fiction. When I was younger, I used to go to abandoned places to do photography. However, at this asylum that I explored one day there were patient documents or files laying around. I sifted through them and gathered information from them such as the name for the main character along with his description. So with what was gathered there plus my own serial killer research and medical research too, Tenebra was born!
​
There are a lot of hidden things within this story, lots of lore, and it builds a fictional but yet realistic feel to it. It is written in a way that it seems like it could happen. This is one of the most "real" books that I have developed.
​
The main character Fred Lakes goes through another year of suffering after his wife's suicide. Drowning in depression it causes him to lose his job and spiral downward. Antwon his friend tries to help him get back on his feet, but eventually Fred's luck does improve when a mysterious job offer shows up to come and work at an asylum called "Tenebra". Or so he thought... A man named Doctor Willow is the one who sent it and he is shrouded heavily in an ominous aura. You will explore this asylum, its patients, workers, and its mysteries as you follow Fred in his journey for answers. Take nothing as it seems in this house of mirrors.
