Possession
A psychological horror novel about a woman trapped in a coma-induced dreamscape.
This work examines the fragility of the human mind when confronted with supernatural forces. It focuses on Ashley Thompson’s descent into a coma following a ritualistic game. The story does not offer comfort or clarity. Instead, it presents a world where nothing is stable and no one is who they seem. Farias builds tension through Ashley’s confusion and fear. The narrative stays close to her perspective, making the reader question every event. There are no external rescuers or clear villains. The horror comes from within. The book challenges the reader to accept ambiguity. It does not promise a happy ending or a safe return to normalcy. The focus remains on the psychological cost of possession.
Published in 2018 by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform, this book sits within the modern tradition of psychological horror and supernatural fiction. It reflects contemporary interests in mental health metaphors and digital-age anxieties about identity and reality.

⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Farias successfully constructs a suffocating atmosphere where the boundary between consciousness and delusion dissolves completely. The narrative excels in its commitment to Ashley’s perspective, forcing the reader to experience her disorientation firsthand without the comfort of an omniscient guide. By eliminating external rescuers or clear villains, the text intensifies the sense of helplessness, making the supernatural intrusion feel inescapable and deeply personal. This approach suits readers who value atmospheric dread and psychological depth over traditional plot resolutions. The book is a potent examination of mental instability, offering a harrowing look at how quickly identity can unravel under pressure. It stands as a strong entry for those seeking horror that challenges perception rather than just providing shock.
