In the quiet halls of Blackwater Bend Elementary, a locked basement door hides something no one talks about.
When sixth-grader Jasper Hale and his friend Sutton dare to open it, they find an ancient chalkboard that doesn't just remember names-it erases them.
One piece at a time.
First a fingertip disappears from a shadow. Then a whistle forgotten. Then a favorite color. Then more.
The board writes back.
It offers choices. It rewards perfection. It turns curious kids into smiling, polite, empty students who never question, never fight, never remember who they used to be.
As classmates vanish into blank eyes and even smiles, Jasper and Sutton realize the truth: the board isn't destroying them.
It's making them real.
Perfect.
And once your name is written...
there's only one way to stop it.
Erase yourself.
Before it erases everything.
A chilling middle-grade horror that asks: What would you give up to be perfect? And what happens when nothing is left to give?
Erase Me - Don't write your name. You might not get it back.
