📘 MY EYES DECEIVE

A psychological thriller about uncomfortable truths, modern ghosts, and the lies we choose to believe.

What would you do if the people you love came back… but weren’t really them?

Diana Wright was once a promising journalist—until her brother’s arrest and a media scandal left her reputation in ruins, her job hanging by a thread, and her bank account on life support.
Now, with one final chance, a crushing debt, and nothing to lose, she's assigned to cover what should be a closed case: the suicide of a former child actor.
But what begins as a routine interview spirals into a waking nightmare, dragging her deep into the darkest corners of the country... and of herself.

In the shadows of a theme park known for its joy, long-buried secrets are waiting to be unearthed.
Missing children. Lost files. Designs no one remembers signing.
And familiar faces... that shouldn’t be alive.

✨ Perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Sharp Objects, and Silent Hill, My Eyes Deceive weaves journalism, trauma, and the paranormal into a raw and unflinching critique of power, spectacle, and a society that would rather look away.

Hi, Jokkie! Thank you so much, again, for your kind words and encouragement. They were a great help. I'm getting there. 😊

You say I can find "World for Lost Souls Amusements" under its new title ", My Eyes Deceive" (I have to say that I much prefer the old title), but it does not appear on your profile. In fact, the "Stories" tab is missing from your profile!! Is that an Inkitt malfunction? Have you posted the new version of the story?

In the meantime, I would be very grateful if you could review "Four-Poster" and its sequel, "What Men Do," while they are still fresh in your mind.

Thanks again, Jokkie! I can't wait to read "My Eyes Deceive". 😊

Hi, Jokkie!

Sorry I have only read a chapter and a half of "World for Lost Souls Amusements". I have not been on Inkitt or done any writing for about ten months because of grief and depression. I am trying to ease myself back into things.

I came to your page to continue reading your story, which I was thoroughly enjoying, only to find you have removed it! Why is this? Are you going to re-post it?

Hi, JOKKIE! (How do you get an upside-down "e"!?)

Thank you so much for liking my story “What Men Do”. If you could spare a moment to give a brief review, it would be a great help to me, but if you haven’t the time, I understand.

Thank you so much for your support; it is much appreciated.😊
