Sleep Maps and Signal Ghosts: A Collection of Speculative Short Stories

In the city of Avalon, where buildings whisper and grief echoes through rusted speakers, five strangers wander through the surreal architecture of memory, technology, and loss. Sleep Maps and Signal Ghosts is a speculative fiction collection that blends quiet horror, dream logic, and psychological intimacy into five deeply emotional narratives.

A woman inherits a locked closet that unravels alternate versions of her life.
A dream-mapping cartographer is stalked by a hotel that builds rooms from her regrets.
A washed-up radio host receives a message from his future self—begging him to stop listening.
A sound scavenger discovers an audio parasite made of empathy that infects the mind.
And two lost souls—one a tailor of grief, the other a broadcaster of ghosts—meet in a dream library that wants to preserve their unfinished selves.. forever.

Set in the Duskbound Labyrinth of Avalon, these stories are quiet rebellions against perfection, meditations on identity, and love letters to the flawed and the forgotten. With a lyrical voice and speculative wonder, Seraphine Vale invites you to step sideways through time, touch the seams of your other lives, and decide which version of yourself you want to keep.

About the Author

Seraphine Vale is a genre-agnostic storyteller who delights in exploring the vast and ever-changing landscape of human experiences. Unbound by any one genre, she crafts narratives that range from the glamor and pressure of modeling and idol careers to the raw, emotional depths of (step) parenting and everything in between. Her writing is a journey into the ordinary, where she finds extraordinary stories waiting to be told. Whether through the lens of personal growth, career struggles, or intimate relationships, Seraphine Vale invites readers to dive deep into the complexities of life and the beauty in the everyday.
