About this ebook
Never play with the dead.
That’s a rule twenty-one-year-old college senior, Alyson Taylor should have followed. After moving into a recently renovated house closer to school with her mother and sister, Aly and her friends find a new toy to play with in the attic─ a Ouija Board.
Aly, and her friends start communicating with a spirit through the board. They have no idea who or what they’re dealing with. Only one thing is certain, no one will be the same after the spirit is finished with them.
Will anyone survive The Dead Game?
K. B. Miller
Okay, so I'm supposed to tell you about me...Seriously, if I wrote a book about myself it would take you ten minutes to read and you would be bored stiff after the first two! LOLI'm a full-time writer, wife, and mother. Which basically means there's always a surplus of pencils lost somewhere in my hair, I usually have some place to be(I'm always late), I have a bad habit of calling family and friends random character's names (from my books), I talk to myself because no one else listens to me, and I can throw together a mean dinner for eight with only ten minutes notice and four ingredients in the pantry, LOL.If you can't find me on the sidelines of my sons' football games, online, cooking, cleaning, shopping, at the local coffee joint or on the phone wandering aimlessly throughout my house then I've probably hidden myself in my "bat-cave" to write.I have a positive attitude, and absolute fun-loving approach to life. That makes it easy for the voices in my head to take over on a regular basis providing endless hours of entertainment for my pleasure, and hopefully yours.Random facts about me:~My favorite color is pink~I have a Bishon Frise puppy named Cullen Edward~My favorite music is hip-hop~I have a severe addiction to coffee. So much so, that those in my inner circle refuse to speak to me before caffeine O'clock! True StoryEnjoy the ride.~K.B. xoxo

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.

Chapter One
Alyson
I felt like I was being watched again.
Do you want to go see a movie with me?
At the sound of my sisters’ voice, I jerked my head up from the term paper I’d been working on and blew out a deep breath. Hannah was standing in the doorway nervously picking at her fingernails. Her big brown eyes begged me to say yes. Of course, I couldn’t tell my little sister no. I never could.
I was five years old when my parents brought the little pink bundle home from the hospital. From that day on, even though I was just a kid myself, I treated her like my very own child.
Sure. We’ll go tonight after Mom leaves. I’ll even spring for dinner. What do you want to see?
I winked.
"Can we see the new horror flick, As Above, So Below? Everyone at my old school said that it was super scary." The corners of her lips fell at the mention of her old school. I knew that she missed her friends. The move had been hardest on her.
Sure thing, Hanny. Mind if Matt and Katie tag along?
I asked, hesitantly. Hannah adored my friends, but sometimes she just wanted ‘sister’ time.
That’ll be awesome. Can we get Mr. Phoo’s? I love their sesame chicken.
She clapped her hands together.
Of, course. But, no stealing all the fortune cookies this time, okay?
I laughed.
No promises.
She smiled. Her long, brown ponytail bounced as she turned and flitted away. She reminded me so much of our father.
Dad.
I whispered at the thought of him. My fingers lightly touched the cross around my neck. My father had been hit head on by a drunk driver and killed instantly.
Since my fathers’ untimely death last year, my mother had been spending even more time away from home, claiming that it was ‘work related’, and she ‘had to go’. I knew that was bullshit. She couldn’t bear spending time in our family home. Reminders of Dad were all over that place.
He was in the pictures on the wall. He’d built the deck that my mother often enjoyed drinking her nightly glass of
