Haunted Halloween with Lauren Hammond and a giveaway!

By: Lauren Hammond

Nestled deep in the midwest, in a rural area of northeast Ohio, is a place known as five-points.
It's a circular point where five roads meet and each road has a legendary ghost story.
Teenagers from all counties, venture down the long country roads hoping to get a scare.

Years ago, when I was in high school, a few friends and myself had our own personal experience with five points and I'm here to share that with you.
While on a joyride, down the long country road, a semi truck appeared out of nowhere, riding our car, bumper to bumper.
Everytime the driver would try and speed up, the truck would be there again, right on our tail.

Finally, the driver of our car reached a point where she was petrified, we all were.
She slammed on the gas, gunning it, blazing ahead going at least 60 miles an hour.
But when we reached the end of the road, the truck was gone. No headlights, no cars on the road at all.
On the vacant country road, there are no places to turn, no driveways, no nothing. Nothing but miles, and miles of an empty country road.

We know what we saw. So now you need to form your own anaylisis. On an empty country road, where there are no turns, and ghost semi's taunt you,
scaring the living crap out of you, ask yourself this; Do you believe in ghosts?

One moment she's an adolescent young woman living her life, the next she's lurking in the streets at night looking for her next meal. The vampire slayings in England became so brutal the whole race was nearly wiped out. So Cara and the clan she called her extended family fled to the U.S. to make a home.

When one of the clan members makes a mistake, they are once again being hunted and Cara is the only one who makes it out alive. Cara is officially the last vampire on earth. So when Cara awakes from a two hundred year slumber, she awakes to a new city, new people, and a new way of life. Cara sets out on a journey to find her soul mate, the one person who is designed for her. Along the way she encounters a zany new friend, a jealous co worker, and a man whom she can't live without.
