The Hidden Corridor - The Darkwell Files
The Darkwell Files — Series Overview
Some stories are written.
Others are filed away.
The Darkwell Files is an adult psychological horror, action, and thriller series presented as a collection of classified records, suppressed footage, and reconstructed case files surrounding incidents that were never meant to become public.
Each novel focuses on a single case—an encounter with something dangerous, misunderstood, or deliberately contained until containment fails. The stories unfold through investigation, escalating threat, and moments of sudden, often brutal action as the consequences of secrecy and delay can no longer be controlled.
At the centre of the files is Victor Darkwell III, a specialist repeatedly called in when situations have already gone too far. Competent, rational, and driven by a need to prevent further damage, Darkwell moves from case to case attempting to impose order on events that resist explanation. Each decision he makes narrows the available outcomes, pushing him closer to moral lines that cannot be uncrossed.
The entities encountered across the series are not simple monsters. They are intelligent, adaptive, and often older than the frameworks built to restrain them. As the files accumulate, connections begin to emerge: patterns of behaviour, shared histories, and unfinished conflicts that stretch beyond any single case.
Each volume stands alone as a high-intensity thriller, but together they form a larger narrative about power, survival, and what happens when the cost of intervention becomes indistinguishable from the cost of inaction.
These files were never meant to be released.
Once opened, they cannot be closed.
