Would you risk everything to help a ghost remember who she was… and why she can’t move on?

When Lucy moves into a creaky old mansion, she doesn’t expect to find a ghost—and certainly not one her own age. But that’s exactly what she discovers in Emily, a quiet spirit with no memory of her death. The two form an unlikely friendship, and together, they begin unraveling the chilling mystery that binds Emily to the house.

Strange whispers echo through the halls. Shadows shift when no one’s there. A mysterious figure named William lurks in the darkness, watching Lucy’s every move.

As the haunting intensifies, Lucy must dig deeper into the secrets of the past to protect Emily—and herself—before it’s too late.

The Ghostly Guardian is a standalone supernatural novelette in The Haunted Chronicles series, perfect for listeners who love eerie adventures, ghostly friendships, and edge-of-your-seat suspense.

This suspenseful ghost story includes access to a free companion website featuring themed puzzles, printable activities, and educational resources—perfect for kids, parents, educators, and librarians.

The friendship between Lucy, the ghost girl Emily is so sweet and wholesome. Seeing Lucy risk her own safety to help Emily was actually pretty moving to me

Supernatural!

I think spooky, scary, ghostly tales are my favorite to listen to on Audiobooks- when the narrator speaks in whispered, hushed tones or evil voices it is goosebump worthy. Alice’s parents have relocated yet again. She really hates always being the new girl in a new town and living a a new to her house. This house is huge and old and creepy. The first night she hears giggles and for some reason is not scared. She asks who it is and receives an answer - Emily. She asks her if they can be friends and they decide yes, as neither has had a real friend before. Emily cannot remember how she died or why she is still around so Alice and Emily set off on the creepy, dangerous quest for answers. Spooky enough for goosebumps but not for nightmares. Perfect!

Spooky good!

It was unexpectedly short, but still such a good story! At certain parts, I was just standing in my kitchen, listening to the book instead of cleaning lol. Fantastic writing and character development, even for such a small reading time.
