I started this project 2.5 years ago, before there was ever a bright hope for change in Hungary🇭🇺. It tracks my experience making a serious life change as an expat, filmmaker and author in Budapest.

The #MidlifeCrisis seems to have passed…
but the urge to run away hasn’t.
It’s time for a real life pivot.
Nearly a whole year slipped away from me, and I refuse to let that happen again.
What’s next? I’m not entirely sure yet… but I’m finally ready to find out.

Six months after Alice witnessed Trent break into her antique store and die on the floor, business has been strangely calm—aside from the ghosts, her watchful neighbor Dahlia, and David, the reaper who lingers nearby with his hellhound, Scorch.

When a promising estate sale in nearby Gainesville draws Alice and Dahlia in, what should have been a routine inventory run takes a dark turn. Among the antiques are objects tied to forbidden rituals—items capable of pulling the dead back into the living world.

Soon after, another body appears in Alice’s shop.

With the blood moon approaching, Alice and Dahlia uncover the truth: the powerful Gallant family has been quietly continuing a deadly tradition—and Alice may be the final piece they need to complete it.

If they fail to stop the ritual, the dead won’t be the only ones rising… and they may not survive to see the aftermath.

Is it #weird I don't like the #fact that I turned 30 a couple years back?

Does anyone have #midlife #crisis #points in their lives anymore?

I still don't #feel I'm over 25.

I #think #age is just a number but the more I'm #forced to prove I'm over 18, the less I feel like I am #confident with the age #bracket I fit into.

And it's not because I would get #specialized #attention or because I don't. But because, I don't want to #remember looking back and #appreciating the #future that feels more #distant than ever now. Especially when considering that I didn't know back then I would have come to #exist as me today.

I #hate #government #reminding me how untrustworthy it thinks I am because of its #algorithmic priorities that are so far above and beyond mine, that it's laughable, totally absurd and absolutely #real sad to say.

I miss my 20 something #self really bad.
