I can’t even express how happy that makes me.” – Stephanie Elisabeth Campbell

Teaser from the Jezebeth Novel:

“Mary?” She shook the girl’s shoulder. “Mary?” With the same twisted expression on her face, Mary suddenly wrenched toward her and seized Annabelle by the shoulders. Her sister’s face loomed close. Her trembling fingers dripped with sweat. “He’s come to drag me down,” Mary said. “He’s come to drag me to Hell” Annabelle’s heart thundered in panic. “What? Who?” Suddenly, her sister increased the pressure on Annabelle’s hand and buried her sharp, dagger-like fingers into her scalp. Splitting pain filled her skull and she gasped in agony. She tried to wrench backward, but Mary retained a firm grasp on her hair. Her sister’s whole body shook and her eyes were filled with madness. If she didn’t know better, she could swear Hellfire was in her sister’s eyes. “Jonah has come to drag me down.” Mary spoke quietly at first, then her voice rose until she screamed into her face. “The Devil has come. Save me, Annabelle. The Devil is coming for me. The Devil is coming for me.”
