ERROR 509
Dahlia always knew her mind was a fragile thing-fractured memories, missing years, and a past sealed behind nightmares she couldn't explain. When she inherits her estranged grandmother's house, it feels like a chance to reclaim her sanity.
Until the house begins to shift.
Rooms rearrange. Reflections lie. And time-time bends in ways it shouldn't. A kind-eyed handyman appears out of nowhere, claiming her grandmother hired him. But something about him flickers, like he's wearing someone else's smile.
As Dahlia battles the line between truth and delusion, she begins to hear voices through the walls-some pleading, some mocking, all convinced she's part of something she doesn't understand.
But what terrifies her most isn't the house or the stranger who changes faces. It's the possibility that she isn't losing her mind at all.
She's waking up.
Error 509 is a haunting descent into fractured identity, distorted memory, and the terrifying question:
What if you're not who you think you are?

About the Author

Kendra Ashley writes dark fiction with a taste for the eerie, the emotional, and the unexpected. Her work blends psychological horror, surreal technology, and sharp, character-driven storytelling that lingers long after the last page.

When she’s not crafting haunted houses or unraveling minds, Kendra enjoys horror movies, midnight snacks, and pretending her internet connection isn’t cursed. Error 509 is her debut novel and the first installment in The Null Sequence — a horror series that explores identity, control, and the spaces where reality breaks down.

She lives with her husband and a very opinionated pets named Daisy and Tim.
