Follow the Rules

Everything has rules.

Some are written down.
Some are learned in whispers.
Some you follow without remembering who taught you.

In Follow The Rules, a town obeys traditions no one questions: porch lights go dark at a certain hour, doors stay locked, children learn when not to speak, and some things are never looked for once they're gone. What begins as common sense slowly reveals itself as something else-quiet, procedural, and deeply intentional.

This psychologically devastating collection of interconnected horror stories explores what happens when obedience becomes instinct and safety depends on doing exactly what you're told. As the rules multiply and contradict one another, characters discover that survival often requires participation-and that understanding the system comes too late to escape it.

Unsettling, ritualistic, and relentlessly atmospheric, Follow The Rules is a book about compliance, consequence, and the cost of following instructions that were never meant to protect you.
