The 15 Plan: A Haunted Mosaic
A collection of ghost stories centered on a single haunted building.
This work focuses on the specific address of 1515 West 33rd Street as a location where the living and dead intersect. Chard documents phenomena such as phantom pianists and impossible architecture to build a sense of inescapable dread. The collection relies on the accumulation of small, terrifying details rather than a single linear plot. It invites readers to piece together the history of the structure through the experiences of its former occupants.
The book sits within the lineage of classic American and British haunted house literature, specifically echoing the atmospheric tension found in The Haunting of Hill House and Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. It updates these traditions for a contemporary audience by focusing on urban isolation and the persistence of memory in physical spaces.
