Masse and Marrow & Myth Media are proud to announce the July 1, 2026 worldwide release of The Chronicles of The Salem Bonekeeper: The Ossuary Oracle, a supernatural thriller inspired by the enduring mysteries and tragic history of the Salem Witch Trials.

The Chronicles of The Salem Bonekeeper introduces readers to Elias Thorne, a historian obsessed with honoring the forgotten victims of the Salem Witch Trials. When he creates a secret ossuary to give the innocent dead a voice, he inadvertently awakens an ancient conspiracy that has manipulated Salem from the shadows for more than three hundred years. Transformed into the spectral Salem Bonekeeper, Elias must confront a powerful coven determined to preserve its influence at any cost.

Through its blend of folklore, mystery, and dark fantasy, The Ossuary Oracle offers readers a fresh and imaginative reexamination of one of America's most infamous historical tragedies.
"At its heart, The Salem Bonekeeper is a story about memory," says Masse. "It's about honoring the innocent, confronting uncomfortable truths, and asking what might happen if history itself refused to stay buried."
The July 1 release marks the beginning of The Chronicles of The Salem Bonekeeper series and introduces readers to a rich mythology centered around Salem's past, present, and supernatural future.

The dead are finally speaking—and they are furious.
Nineteen lives claimed by the gallows. Three centuries of silence. One man foolish enough to wake them.
Elias Thorne is a historian driven by an obsession that borders on madness. To give the innocent a voice, he secretly unearths the remains of the Salem Witch Trial victims, building a hidden sanctuary beneath his cottage: The Ossuary Oracle.
But reverence comes with a price. By shattering the spiritual veil, Elias inadvertently wakes a darkness that has governed Salem from the shadows for three hundred years.
The ruthless Coven of Old Salem has woven dark magic into the city’s modern infrastructure—from elite bloodlines down to the zoning laws. To them, Elias’s sanctuary isn’t a holy site; it’s a stolen battery of immense supernatural power.
Joined by a librarian grappling with ancestral shame and an archivist wielding dangerous truths, Elias must channel the tragic powers of the innocent to dismantle a centuries-old conspiracy. In this town, zoning permits are just as deadly as ancient curses.
