September is officially here; there’s a crisp chill in the air, school is back in session, and Fall is just around the corner. It’s the perfect time to find a new read to curl up with as the days get shorter and nostalgia takes over.
Author De Elizabeth’s dark academia novel She Haunts Me Still is the perfect read to satiate that itch. Published in early August, the novel takes place in a fictional New England liberal arts college that was once a former sanitorium. Elizabeth is an author who publishes horror and dark fantasy novels—exactly the kind of reads you want this time of year.
Over on Goodreads, She Haunts Me Still was ranked among the best “Dark Academia and Campus Novels to Get You into the Back-to-School Spirit.” On the site, the novel has been marked “want to read” by over 27,000 members, and is currently being read by 225 users. According to the Goodreads staff who curated the post, the list of books is a “collection of new and forthcoming books this year that feature campus novels, dark academia, and school-adjacent stories and characters.”
The 2026 release by Elizabeth fits that bill to a T.
View this post on InstagramShe Haunts Me Still follows freshman theater major Mallory Webb at Shore College in remote Rhode Island. Mallory’s upbringing was constantly shadowed by her mother’s death, and she enrolls at her mother’s former alma mater in part to uncover the truth behind what haunts her. When she meets enigmatic and mysterious Ezra Pierce after being cast as the lead in Romeo and Juliet, Mallory is confronted with more than she bargained for, including an ancient, bloodthirsty evil, an unexpected love triangle, and the truth behind whether or not what haunts you truly does define you.
In addition to her dark academia novel, Elizabeth published the young adult fantasy novel This Raging Sea in 2025. Her third book, A Death Kissed Song, will be published next year.
She Haunts Me Still is out now and available wherever books are sold.
