Fear: Beatrix Greene

Welcome to your deepest FEAR! Since humanity first gathered around a campfire, we’ve been sharing stories to freak each other out and spark the darker side of our imaginations. From the mysterious to the macabre, the supernatural to the supremely bizarre, our FEAR feed features similarly shocking tales, with new episodes dropping weekly, presented by Pun Bandhu. At Realm, the joy of feeling creepy-crawlies tingle up your spine is never out of season, and our always-on chronicles of the ghostly, ghastly, grotesque and everything in between are sure to haunt your every step. So, keep that nightlight on, one eye open, and your head on a swivel because nowhere is safe when you’re immersed in FEAR. This month, we’re featuring Beatrix Greene. Written by New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins, this historical horror story traps a group of sleuths in a haunted house desperate to escape the wrath of a vengeful ghost.   Beatrix Greene makes her living by playing pretend. She knows the seances she conducts are fake, but financial freedom for a single woman in Victorian England is hard to come by. So when notorious scientist James Walker makes her a proposition—prove that ghosts are real, once and for all, for a hefty price—she can’t resist the temptation.   But the ghosts of Ashbury Manor are very real, indeed, and when Beatrix summons one by accident, she and the other guests of the evening are terrified but find the doors of the manor won’t allow escape. Only unraveling secrets from the Manor’s past will banish the ghost for good.  As time runs out and death stalks the halls, Beatrix and James must work together or risk being the haunting’s next victims.  Beatrix Greene is a Realm production, written by Rachel Hawkins, Ash Parsons, and Vicky Alvear Shecter.
