THE SHADOW IN THE THEATER

The Sixth Street Seekers, Book One
Releasing July 7, 2026

Something moves in the Rialto Theater after dark.

Benji hasn’t been in Blackthorne Falls a week before his sketchbook starts filling with drawings he doesn’t remember making, all of the same building: the old movie theater on Ashford Street. The one that’s been closed for decades.

When his new friend Mia announces the Sixth Street Seekers are investigating the Rialto, Benji discovers he isn’t the only one who can feel the theater’s weight.

Something inside has been waiting.

And when the Seekers finally go in, they find a story that’s been trying to finish itself for fifty years.

Blackthorne Falls isn’t haunted because something stayed.

It’s haunted because the town never let it leave.
