BEEN HERE BEFROE By Niylita Emerson

"Been Here Before" by Niylita Emerson is a chilling and haunting narrative that grips readers from the first page. Set against the eerie backdrop of Louisiana's swamplands, the story unfolds as a brother and sister duo, Jake and Danny, stumble upon ancient secrets that challenge the fabric of their reality. The heavy moss, the dense fog, and the omnipresent buzz of the unknown set a perfect stage for a tale that is as much about family and heritage as it is about the supernatural. As the siblings delve deeper into their family's past, they encounter the stuff of nightmares—vampires that have been lurking in the shadows, biding their time. Emerson masterfully weaves suspense with the supernatural, delivering unexpected twists and a haunting atmosphere that makes this short story a must-read at any time. The revelation of the family secret amidst the swamp's foreboding presence serves as a testament to the book's ability to transport readers into a world where the line between the living and the undead is terrifyingly blurred.
