Excellent short Lycanthrope story

I can’t recommend this gem enough. Curious to know what Sam Legge is up to nowadays. Great writing and autumnal atmosphere that gets dark and bloody.

Creepy and well written novella. Nothing like a good haunting!

Caitlin Marceau is new to me, but really kicked off straight away and had me into an intense rivalry haunting. Great stuff 😎
