The Unquiet Dark
Elle Price
Welcome to The Unquiet Dark.
Light a candle and find a comfortable chair to sink into.
You’ve wandered into the favorite haunt of author Elle Price: a lifelong lover of ghost stories, misunderstood monsters, and the quiet magic that still lurks beneath the mundane.
As a child, she played with ghosts. Now, she plays with words.
Join us on Substack for original fiction where folklore, death magic, and dangerous humor drift through the modern world. Every Wednesday, Elle spins the wheel of fate and shares something drawn from the darker corners of her imagination.
Inside these rooms, you’ll discover:
Midnight Musings — original works of short fiction
Reports from the Reliquary — strange artifacts, curious folklore, and beloved books from a possibly haunted library
Beneath the Floorboards — research rabbit holes, mood boards, playlists, and glimpses behind the curtain of Elle’s novel-in-progress, which is slowly driving her insane
Nocturne Notes — wandering thoughts on the strange and speculative
Curios and Oddities — bite-sized folklore and forgotten history to haunt your dreams
So sit a while, and enjoy a few unsettling stories.
If the house creaks, the shadows move strangely, or something breathes softly behind the walls… pay them no mind.
Not all hauntings mean harm.
