The Hollow Places
A young woman discovers a strange portal in her uncle’s house, leading to madness and terror in this gripping new novel from the author of the “innovative, unexpected, and absolutely chilling” (Mira Grant, Nebula Award–winning author) The Twisted Ones.
Pray they are hungry.
Kara finds the words in the mysterious bunker that she’s discovered behind a hole in the wall of her uncle’s house. Freshly divorced and living back at home, Kara now becomes obsessed with these cryptic words and starts exploring this peculiar area—only to discover that it holds portals to countless alternate realities. But these places are haunted by creatures that seem to hear thoughts…and the more one fears them, the stronger they become.
With her distinctive “delightfully fresh and subversive” (SF Bluestocking) prose and the strange, sinister wonder found in Guillermo del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth, The Hollow Places is another compelling and white-knuckled horror novel that you won’t be able to put down.

3/5 ⭐ 📖 My Thoughts What the hell just happened 🤣 I was honestly hoping this would be more spooky than it was but I think it was a bit too lighthearted with all the jokes and quirky characters. It could have been better if it hadn't been in first person. The main character keeps addressing you as the reader and it takes you out of the spooky atmosphere, I think? ⚠️ Triggers Animal death, death, divorce, drugs (mentioned),murder, occult, skeletal remains, violence.
