Building a Psychological Horror Novel: Behind the Door of Room 705

What began as a sentence—“You wake up in Room 705”—has turned into something darker than I expected. This book didn’t form like Julia. It arrived heavy, fog-wrapped, already watching.

I wanted to write a story that doesn’t just scare, but traps. 705 is about being stuck in the moment after death—or before it. It’s not ghosts or monsters. It’s that quiet, choking dread that something’s wrong... but you’re still alive enough to feel it.

The Sanctuary Edge Hotel isn't haunted. It isn't cursed. It's designed. Carefully. I’ve spent the last few weeks building that world—and it’s starting to breathe on its own. The fog. The hallways. The way the walls lean in when you’re not looking.

If you haven’t yet, I invite you to step into it. The teaser page is now live, complete with visuals, fog, and an early access sign-up. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Every story reveals something unexpected. 705 is already doing that. I’ll keep writing—and I’ll share more soon. Until then, stay out of strange hotel rooms... or don’t.
