Summary

A mother and son with a strained relationship inherit a house following the sudden death of a family member with a violent past. When the son moves his bedroom into the basement, he starts to experience unexplainable and terrifying phenomena. After he uncovers a dark secret concealed within the house, they quickly learn that some truths are better left a mystery. Can they overcome their differences in order to survive, or will the darkness overcome them both?

Critic reviews

"Horrors abound in this unnerving and challenging debut novella by Joshua Marsella. Scratches shines a light on what makes monsters of men and women, deftly revealing that the robbing of innocences has life changing and life destroying consequences." (Ross Jeffery, Bram Stoker-nominated author)

Marsella is a must read author.

Joshua Marsella is a rare talent.
Action & suspense blend perfectly with the descriptive horror.
