Twilight Stories

You know, in another life, people would argue at dusk about the best pizzeria in Moonlake. They'd say the secret ingredient was... well, who knows really, but they defended it like it was the lineage of their great-grandparents etched in stone.

And then there was that tale about the lighthouse keeper, who, on especially foggy evenings, could communicate with the past. That's what Jenny claimed, anyway. Her stories wrapped around you like a warm blanket on a chilly evening, inviting you to believe the unbelievable.

It's said the old bookstore hides stories between stories, volumes of forgotten lives nestled behind dusty shelves. Some swear they’ve seen the words flickering like fireflies on pages left open, inviting them into the world of characters who never stepped into daylight.
