Some houses are more than haunted-they're hungry. Mercer Lane is a chilling collection of interconnected horror stories spanning nearly a century, all rooted in the cursed house at 17 Mercer Lane. From the 1930s to the present day, four terrifying tales unfold: The Foundation (1936) - When a carpenter and his son begin work on the house's basement, they discover ancient horrors buried beneath the soil-and become part of its dark legacy. The Warning (1953) - A young couple's dream home turns into a nightmare when a vengeful spirit forces them into a deadly spiral of fear, suspicion, and tragic violence. The Sentence (1979) - A prison guard's illicit affair leads to a curse that twists his body and mind. But death is only the beginning of his torment. The Girl (2025) - In the modern day, a new family moves into the house. As the walls whisper and shadows grow, a young girl witnesses the terrible cycle repeating itself-and learns that no one ever truly leaves Mercer Lane. Blending ghostly dread, psychological terror, and generational curses, Mercer Lane will haunt you long after the final page.
