Echoes in the Stone is a chilling Appalachian horror novel that blends psychological tension, forgotten history, and the unsettling presence of a place that refuses to die. Set against the looming stone walls of the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, this standalone story explores what happens when old ghosts are not spirits at all-just memories sharpened into something hungry. Ellie Glass, a struggling journalist from Weirton, West Virginia, receives a cryptic email hinting at an unpublished ledger kept by Dr. Walter Freeman, the infamous lobotomist whose shadow still stains the region's abandoned institutions. Determined to revive her failing career-and haunted by her mother's long battle with mental illness-Ellie travels deep into the heart of the state to uncover the truth. But Weston is not just a relic. Its halls listen. Its stone remembers. And through her recorder, something begins whispering to her. Guided by a local historian with secrets of his own, Ellie moves through patient cells, surgical theaters, and echoing corridors where thousands once suffered in silence. What she uncovers goes far beyond medical horror. Each room bears a story cut into the walls, each doorway hides a piece of the ledger's truth, and each whisper brings her closer to a past that is not finished with her. As the line between memory and madness blurs, Ellie must confront the terrifying possibility that the hunger born inside this place never faded-it only learned to wait. Atmospheric, emotionally charged, and steeped in Appalachian folklore, Echoes in the Stone is perfect for fans of slow-burn psychological horror, abandoned-hospital fiction, and chilling real-world history. Joshua Bish delivers a haunting exploration of trauma, place, and the echoes we leave behind-with a setting so vivid you'll swear the walls are breathing.
