Then the Night Got Weird
In 1945, the U.S. Army recovered a meteorite containing alien crystals—stones capable of opening microscopic wormholes. One experiment went wrong. Very wrong. Physicist Dr. Gordon Keith vanished while working with a crystal. The Army buried the incident. The remaining stones vanished into history.
Forty years later, Luke Boyd and his four best friends in small‑town Texas accidentally uncover one of those crystals during a reckless Fourth of July prank. They think it’s just a strange rock.
They’re wrong.
On the eve of their twentieth high school reunion, the crystal activates again—ripping Luke and his friends out of 2009 and slingshotting them back to 1985—back to the teenage bodies they once inhabited.
They still have their adult minds. Their adult memories. And everything to lose.
If they alter the past, Luke’s wife and children may never exist.
To get home, they must survive puberty again, retrace their original timeline without changing a moment—and stop the unhinged physicist they’ve just freed from a warped pocket of spacetime.
Because Gordon Keith didn’t disappear in 1945.
He’s been waiting.
The crystal can be their salvation—or their ruin.
Wormholes don’t forgive mistakes.
And this time, the future is on the line.

The Tunnel
Psychological Horror
After the tragic suicide of their fifteen-year-old son Ethan, Zach and Grace Dunning are drowning in grief and guilt. Desperate for connection, Grace turns to a spiritualist church in Cedar Hill, Texas—The Great Chapel of Mara—where whispers of the afterlife promise solace. But what begins as a hopeful search for peace spirals into a dark descent through manipulation, deceit, and violence.
Eddie Munson, a brash medium with a shady past, offers uncanny insights into Ethan’s life. Grace is convinced. Zach is repulsed. When Eddie crosses a line, the couple seeks guidance from Lamar Golding, Mara’s charismatic leader. Lamar seems gentle, trustworthy—until the truth begins to unravel. Behind closed doors, Mara’s staff invade the Dunning home, mining Ethan’s digital footprint to fabricate convincing “messages from beyond.”
As the illusion deepens, so does the danger. Eddie’s erratic behavior escalates into harassment, and a confrontation by the water ends in a tragic accident. Grace, ever composed, becomes the architect of their cover-up. But secrets have weight, and the past refuses to stay buried.
When betrayal, blackmail, and murder collide, Zach and Grace find themselves entangled in a web of lies spun by a psychic mafia masquerading as healers. And just when the storm reaches its peak, something breaks through the noise—something that makes them question everything they thought they knew about grief, guilt, and goodbye.”
The Tunnel is a gripping psychological thriller that explores the raw edges of grief, the seductive power of belief, and the lengths we’ll go to for redemption. Equal parts haunting and heart-wrenching, it asks: what if the only way out… is through?
Greg Neeley is a proud Gen Xer with roots on a rural Arkansas farm and a long-time home base in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. A lifelong sports fan, Greg enjoys good company, cold beer, and Friday nights that don’t take themselves too seriously.
He’s also happily married and loves spending time with his wife, whose support and insistence helped ensure this very sentence made the cut. All kidding aside, she's his everything...without her he would be rudderless ship.
His debut novel, Then the Night Got Weird, co-written with longtime friend and creative partner Reggie Tennison, is a passion project born from a shared desire to reclaim the imaginative spark that life sometimes sidelines. What started as a casual brainstorm turned into an excellent adventure—and the duo is already halfway through their next book.
Greg writes with a mix of nostalgia, humor, and surreal wonder, drawing on decades of lived experience and a deep love for storytelling. He’s not one to brag, but he’s pretty sure his dog thinks he’s brilliant.
Reggie Tennison is a lifelong denizen of the Dallas/Fort Worth area. He is a sports junkie, especially for his hometown teams...with the notable exception of the Dallas Cowboys. Thanks to an intense 1980s man-crush on Dan Marino, Reggie roots for the Miami Dolphins. Unfortunately, they aren't any better than the Cowboys, but, hey, the heart wants what the heart wants.
Reggie resides with his wife, Gayla, who is his very own Adrian. Always there to give a little shove, even when a mere nudge would suffice. Seriously though, her support throughout this process is much appreciated. He would be remiss if he didn't also mention his 13 year-old pup, Harper. She is prone to FOMO attacks, so she needs her shout-out.
This collaboration with Greg Neeley has been a blast from beginning to end. Even the disagreements! They are happy to share this book with the reading world, and believe they have created a worthwhile story. But you, dear reader, will be the true judge of that.
