  • The Stitches at the Ridgewood Funeral Home, January 1998

    Luna tells the story of a winter night in 1998 when she helped her aunt, a funeral home director in Ridgewood, with an unusual preparation. A woman had died in her sleep, peaceful and young, but when Luna saw her, the body seemed wrong—the mouth slightly open, the fingers curled, as if mid-sentence. Then she noticed the stitches on the inside of the lip, neat and black. Her aunt said it was standard procedure. But that night, Luna heard a faint whisper from the cold room, a voice saying the same two words over and over. She never went back. A quiet, unsettling episode about what the dead might try to say and what we do to keep them silent.

  • The Bell at the Oakwood Church, December 1997

    Luna recalls a December night in the small town of Oakwood, where she stopped at the old white church on a frozen road. The bell in the tower rang at an hour it shouldn't have — three slow, deliberate chimes at 2:47 AM. She found a woman in a blue coat sitting in the front pew, who spoke of a promise made and a bell that never lies. But the story the woman told was not her own — it was her mother's, and her grandmother's, and every woman in her family who had stood at that altar before. By dawn, the church was empty, the bell silent, and Luna left with a name written on a scrap of paper that still sits inside her notebook, unsolved.

  • The Last Tape at the Vermillion Motel, December 1997

    December 1997. The Vermillion Motel on Route 9, just east of the county line. A woman checks in alone, pays cash, and does not check out. Luna finds her story in a shoebox of cassette tapes left behind in Room 12 — recordings of someone trying to prove she wasn't losing her mind. But the more Luna listens, the more she realises the tapes were never meant to be found. And the last one... the last one is still recording.

  • The Red Thread at the Dunmore Post Office, December 1997

    December 1997, Dunmore, Ohio. A woman named Clara begins finding red threads tied to her mailbox, her car antenna, her front door. Each thread is exactly twelve inches long, tied in a bow. When she brings one inside, she starts hearing something shuffling through her house at night — a sound like dry cloth dragging across the floor. She calls the post office, the police, the town historian. No one has an explanation. Then she finds a thread tied around the inside of her bedroom doorknob while she was sleeping. A quiet, slow-burn story about proximity and the things that mark us without permission. Told in Luna's hushed, intimate register — not a ghost story, not a stalker story, but something in between.

  • The License Plate at the Starlite Diner

    In October 1999, I worked the late shift at the Starlite Diner outside Elkhorn, Wisconsin. That's where I met Frank. He came in every night at 2:00 AM, ordered black coffee and apple pie, and left a one-dollar tip. He never said more than four words. Then one night he said something else. And then he disappeared. The license plate on his truck had been registered to a man who died in 1987. But the truck was still parked behind the diner. The engine was still warm.

  • The Photograph at the Fairpoint Diner

    In December 1999, Luna stopped at the Fairpoint Diner off Route 9, a place she'd passed a hundred times but never entered. The air smelled of burnt coffee and something floral she couldn't place. An old woman in a blue apron sat alone in a booth, staring at a polaroid she wouldn't let Luna see fully — only the corner, where a hand reached up from dark water. The woman spoke about her daughter, lost in the lake twenty years ago, and the photograph that arrived in the mail each year since, always on the anniversary, always from a town that doesn't exist anymore. Luna left with a copy of the menu and the feeling of cold fingers brushing her wrist when she touched the door. The photograph was never explained. The woman was gone the next time Luna passed by. The diner is still there, but the booth is always empty now.

  • The Cradle at the Pendleton Nursery

    In the summer of 1997, Luna's aunt, a floral designer, took a job arranging flowers for a private estate outside a small town called Dutton. The estate had a greenhouse, a nursery that had been closed for years, and a cradle that rocked on its own. Luna's aunt didn't believe in ghosts—she believed in drafts, in old wood settling, in the mind playing tricks. But the cradle had a history, and the family who lived there had a story they wouldn't tell. This is what she found in the nursery, and what she couldn't leave behind.

  • The Graveyard Shift at the Sudbury Truck Stop

    December 1997. Luna takes a temp job at the Sudbury Truck Stop on Route 9, covering the graveyard shift for a driver who vanished mid-run. The first night, a trucker in a stained coat hands her a letter for a man named Elias — a man who died in a wreck ten years ago. She keeps the letter. Reads it. Then the phone starts ringing at exactly 3:13 AM, and the caller ID shows a number that hasn't been active since 1987. By the third night, she's taking calls from a woman who asks for her dead husband. This is a story about holding on too long, about the things we leave unfinished, and about the thin line between a favor and a debt. Luna learns that some routes don't end — they just keep going, waiting for someone to pick up the phone.

  • The Light at the Sudbury Truck Stop, December 1997

    December 1997, a frozen night at the Sudbury Truck Stop off Route 9. Luna's cousin Danny worked the late shift there, and one night a woman walked in out of the snow — no coat, no car, just a story about a light she'd been following across the field. Danny gave her coffee, then watched her walk back into the dark. This is what he told Luna the next morning, his hands still shaking around his own mug. It's about the things we choose to follow, and the ones we don't. It's about the kindness of not asking the next question. And it's about a light that still burns, somewhere south of the interstate, waiting for someone who might stop.

  • The Phone at the Lowry Gas Station, November 1997

    November 1997. A payphone outside a gas station in Lowry, Oklahoma rings at 3:17 AM — every morning, for six nights. Luna answers on the fourth night. She hears static, then a voice she recognizes. Her cousin, who died in a car crash three years ago — the same stretch of road the phone faces. The voice isn't asking for help. It's apologizing. Over and over. Luna starts recording the calls. By the sixth night, the voice changes. It's not her cousin anymore. It's the thing that took his shape. And it knows she's been listening.

About Bound in Black — Fexingo Horror

From the publisher's feed

From a private library wall, Luna removes a single black-bound book—its leather cracked, its twine binding tight. This is 'Bound in Black', an anthology of stories drawn from that volume alone. Each episode is a self-contained descent into a different kind of dread: a woman who finds a photograph of herself in a book she's never opened, a man whose reflection begins aging faster than he does, a town where every library book contains a single handwritten page about the reader's deepest fear. The stories share a unifying thread—the power of what is written, what is read, and what is left between the lines. In Luna's hushed, intimate register, each tale unfolds slowly, like ink bleeding through paper, until the final sentence tightens like a knot. Open the book. Turn the page. But some words are meant to stay read.
