Phantasma
To save her younger sister, Ophelia Grimm must survive Phantasma — a deadly, ever-shifting haunted mansion that appears for one week each year and challenges the desperate to clear nine terrifying trials. Clear all nine and any wish is granted; fail, and the house keeps you.
A necromancer who has spent her life hiding her powers, Ophelia isn't sure she can survive the game alone. Then she meets Blackwell, a maddening, seductive stranger who offers to help her through the trials — in exchange for ten years of her life. As the challenges grow bloodier and the line between ally and enemy blurs, Ophelia realizes the greatest danger in Phantasma may be losing her heart.
