What if a mirror stopped showing your face—and started revealing your forgotten fears?
"La Lueur sous la Porte" is a slow-burning, psychological horror story written entirely in beginner-friendly French (A1–A2 level). Designed as a graded reader, this immersive novella follows Élise, a girl who moves into an old countryside house where nothing is as quiet as it seems—and where a soft yellow light keeps appearing under her door at night.
As Élise uncovers locked rooms, shadowy reflections, and the secrets of a missing child, she begins to realize that the house is more than stone and wood. It listens. It remembers. And it wants something from her.
Created for language learners, the story uses natural repetition, simple grammar, and emotionally engaging storytelling to help you absorb French without struggling over vocabulary lists or grammar rules.
🕯️ What's inside:
- ~20,000 words of beginner-level French (A1–A2)
- A complete psychological horror mystery full of quiet dread
- Context-based repetition of useful vocabulary and structures
- No glossary or drills—comprehension comes naturally through story
- Ideal for French self-learners and extensive reading lovers
Perfect for fans of subtle suspense, eerie atmospheres, and stories that stay with you after the last page.
Step into the house. Follow the light. But remember—some doors were never meant to open.
