Return to the Leaf Academy
(2023)(The eighth book in the Gulf Coast Paranormal: Season Two series)
A novel by M L Bullock
In the chilling seventh installment of the Gulf Coast Paranormal series, the team of intrepid ghost hunters – Midas, Cassidy, Sierra, Joshua, Jericho, Chris, and Macie – face their darkest fear. They return to the haunting ruins of the Leaf Academy, where the line between the living and the dead has never been thinner.
Years ago, the Academy bore witness to a gruesome tragedy. Macie's sister, the valiant Jocelyn Graves, was cruelly taken from the world when she was pushed from the school's roof by a malevolent shadow entity. This spectral figure is known as Oliver. But, as the team soon discovers, Oliver is not a mere ghost.
He is an ancient, terrifying entity known as one of the October People. Steeped in Native American folklore, these spectral beings return to the Gulf Coast each October, for a brief, deadly three-day stint. Their singular aim? To steal from the living, to kill the living. But there is one caveat - the victims must first accept their insidious gifts. White stones, black crow feathers... innocuous at first glance, but they mark you for death.
As the month of October draws near, the Gulf Coast Paranormal team must delve into the dangerous world of the October People and solve the mystery of Oliver's true identity. With the memory of Jocelyn’s tragic death a constant reminder of the danger they face, they must prevent the entity from claiming more lives.
As the team prepares to confront the horrors of their past and face Oliver once more, they must unravel the mysteries of the ancient legends and avoid falling into the same deadly trap. Will they survive this return to Leaf Academy or will they, too, become victims of the October People?
"Return to Leaf Academy" is a haunting journey into the spectral world, a tale riddled with suspense, ancient folklore, and the grim realities of the paranormal. Brace yourself for a spine-tingling paranormal adventure that will leave you questioning everything you know about the world of the unexplained.
Return to Leaf Academy is written by paranormal authors M. L. Bullock and Kevin D. Bullock.
