Before You Fully Wake: A Psychological Horror Collection

By Atka Shaikh

Something wakes before you do.

Not a sound.
Not a dream.
Something else.

In the quiet moments between sleep and awareness, something listens. Something observes. And sometimes... it acts.

Before You Fully Wake is a collection of psychological horror stories that explore grief, memory, and the fragile boundary between reality and perception.

In these stories, nothing is quite what it seems:

- A quiet apartment where noise is not just heard, but answered
- A grieving daughter who begins waking just before something happens
- A woman who confides in the only person she trusts, until the truth turns against her
- A child who learns that some nights don't begin with sound, but with something watching

Each story lingers in the space between what you know... and what you feel.

Because the most unsettling truth isn't what you see.

It's what you notice too late.

You don't wake up because something happened.
You wake up because something needed you to.
