24-year-old, Zackary “Zack” Hernandez has aquaphobia, or a person who has a fear of water. Determined to cure his phobia and to reunite with his childhood friends, he decided to go back to the lake house where he was born and to also figure out the truth behind his nightmares that seemed to happen in the lake house. Before going there, here are the only things they expected to happen: have a blissful reunion, have extraordinary birthday celebrations, a relaxing vacation, to meet his grandparents and sister again, and of course to go back home safe and sound. But what they did not know was they only got themselves on the serial killer's hands and now it's impossible to go back. The shocking, gripping, and wicked THRILLER story of family, betrayals, and heinous crimes. That will surely make you think of how much knowledge do you know about the history of your family.

PROLOGUE

"Now, let’s continue." The man in a police uniform started as he took out the photos inside the brown envelope and scattered them in front of me. My eyes fluttered as a sign of dreary. I want to ask for a glass of water, but I know nothing would be enough to drain the chaotic emotions in me. Instead of looking at the gruesome photos of the people I grew up with, I turned my head around in the small plain room. It’s so cold here, and I’m tired of answering the same questions over again. Nothing seems to be enough with the detective sitting in front of me. The old man is eager to prompt me to say the answers he wants to hear from me instead of the truth. “Mr. Hernandez, for the hundredth time, can you please answer our quest

Good day everyone! I just want to say sorry if the chapters' titles are confusing. I edited every chapter and added a few details, but the events are still placed accordingly. It would be fixed once my editor is back from vacation. Thank you for reading, and giving me votes. Really appreciate it!

CHAPTER ONE

THE AQUAPHOBIC November 27, 2020 6 months ago... ZACK "Remember when I turned fourteen? I told you that I wanted to join a swimming club. I was adamant and confident in my decision and you all knew me, my dream is to be a swimmer athlete. But..." I bit my lower lip as my eyes darted on the white tile floor. A memory of what I fear the most came rushing back at me, "After I joined the swimming club, a dream of someone drowning me in a lake started visiting me at night. Since then, it has never stopped. The feeling of dreaming it is like a punishment-- I couldn't breathe, I couldn't move, I couldn't feel my lungs, I felt like dying in excruciating pain." I paused for a second.

CHAPTER TWO

 THE DISGUISED INVITATION November 27, 2020 6 months ago... ZACK           It was around 6 pm when we got home from the public market. We own a meat and vegetables stall and my aunt is always the one who handles our store. Sometimes after school I go straight there to help her sell. Our store is quite popular for the buyers who want lower prices and our store is remarkable when it comes to that.           "Zack, I almost forgot. Your grandpa sent you a letter, I put it above the fridge, I didn't read it, don't worry." Aunt Olive joked, she's in the living room watchi

THE SHADOW May 18, 2021 PRESENT DAY ZACK          "Zack, Zack, Zack."            The familiar croaky voice brought my eyes to open. As my visions became clear, I realized that I am at the same place where horror always begins.           The cold breeze engulfed my whole body making me shake uncontrollably, I felt the searing sensation of coldness in my bare feet. I can hear the familiar sounds of the rustling leaves, the waves of the lake, and the sm

CHAPTER FOUR

THE REUNION May 18, 2021 ZACK   “A-Aunt Olive?” I muttered under my breath. Surprisingly Aunt Olive swiftly dropped the knife on the coffee table in front of us. I just came to notice that I am lying on the sofa in the living room and not in my room. I felt the tight embrace of my aunt, “I was so scared, I thought I’m gonna lose you.” She whispered. I sighed as I let down my walls, I hugged her back while my boy continued to shake. “You dozed off and then a while later you were having a seizure, I kept on waking you up but you’re not responding, I thought -- I thought --” As aunt Olive started to hysterical, I immediate

CHAPTER FIVE

MISSING PERSONS [PART ONE]  May 18, 2021 LIZZIE [Lizzette Cruz-Lucero | 26 ]         "I already told you that I'm going to my grandparent's house. Why won't you listen?" I calmly said to my husband Grey on the other line. He was already mad at me the moment I answered his call. Because of one shallow reason that I left our daughter in my parents' house. I truly don't understand, if I choose to leave Cassie with a babysitter he’ll still get mad at me. "My point is, why do you need to leave Cassie behind if you can just let her come along with you!" I heard him scoff. "You know how much I dislike your family! What if something bad happens to Cassie in your par

CHAPTER FIVE [2]

THE CONTINUATION... *BLAG!*        I abruptly woke up when I heard thumpings from a window. Because of panic, I became sober immediately. I looked to my left and saw a woman outside the window who seemed to be in her 40s, continuously knocking to get my attention. While her other hand’s sticking a paper in the glass. When I carefully looked at the paper that is where I realized that it wasn't just a simple paper but a missing poster. I looked in front of me and found out that the driver was gone. I wandered my eyes everywhere only to find him outside eating at a local eatery store. I noticed that the sky is getting dark , I guess it's 6 in the evening now. I feel a sense of pity in her drastic situation. She seems exhausted so

CHAPTER SIX

 IF ONLY SOUNDS CAN SPEAK May 18, 2021 MADDY [Maddison Galvez | 24]          Do you know what's annoying? It's when they call a cabin just a 'house'. What I meant is, there are tons of different types and styles of houses, and I think they must know that when they are asked what kind of house they own. I know it's stupid for me to get annoyed for a small reason but I can't help it. Zack told us earlier that their house is called the ‘Lake House’. When I asked him what the style is, he just described it as a house in the middle of the lake. I rolled my eyes in annoyance because of his stupidity, he jus

CHAPTER SEVEN

CONFUSIONS May 18, 2021 ZACK “G-Grandma?”  It took her some minutes before she familiarized my face. She slowly put the knife down as she shifted her gaze to all of us back and forth. Finn stepped backward when he returned to his senses after the shock that grandma Debbie gave to him. When I look at them one by one I figured out that they all have the same face of shock and fright. "Z-Zack? W-What are you doing here?!" Grandma Debbie stammered firmly, redness striking upon her face. She looked at the others in disbelief, "And who are they?!" She pointed them using the knife in her hand. I immediately rushed in front of my friends and raised my hands in front of my chest as if I'

CHAPTER EIGHT

FORGOTTEN May 18, 2021 ZACK     We went straight to my old bedroom when my grandma insisted that she'll walk Maddy, Jackie, and Lizzie to my late mother’s room located in front of the dining room. It's been so long since I last visited my mom's room. I can't even remember what it looks like, or what was the design of it, or when was the last time I entered it. When I’m here, I have never thought of entering her room. I just often lock myself in my old room as I read comics, or if not I usually just talk lots of stories with my grandpa while helping him do whatever hobbies he does from those days. But usually, I stay at the park near here just one ride away. My mother died a year after Chloe was
