Witching Hour in Whitby: A cosy Gothic romance novella
A haunted cellar.
A reluctant partnership.
Fourteen sacred artefacts that must be returned before Halloween night.
When folklore researcher Dr Poppy Bennett arrives in Whitby, the gothic coastal town famous for Dracula and ghosts, she expects spooky vibes and candlelit traditions. She doesn’t expect a haunted pub, a missing trove of sacred relics, or a grumpy-but-gorgeous Scottish chef who makes the best sticky toffee pudding in Yorkshire.
Now, with the help of Whitby’s wonderfully eccentric folklore society (and a never-ending supply of autumnal treats), Poppy must follow a trail of lost artefacts through candlelit abbey ruins, misty moorland stone circles, and haunted coastal paths… all before midnight on All Hallows’ Eve.
Something is stirring beneath Whitby’s cobbled streets.
And this Halloween, the veil between worlds is thinner than ever.
Cosy, romantic, and steeped in autumnal magic — perfect for readers who believe in folklore, found family, and happily-ever-afters that start with a ghost.
