I, Survivor

De: Andrew Yong

Narrado por: Adam Green

On Mardi Gras weekend in February of 2007 over 40 people were butchered beyond recognition in a lonely Louisiana bayou. The horrific tragedy would go on to be known as The Honey Island Swamp Massacre. Paramedic Andrew Yong was one of the first responders called to the scene over that fateful weekend and was mysteriously the only survivor of the mass killing spree that took place. Standing by his testimony that the murders were carried out by the ghost of local urban legend “Victor Crowley”, Yong would immediately become the only suspect in what has since been called “the trial of this century.” Though acquitted and exonerated across the board by a grand jury, Yong’s story has only spawned more questions than answers and even a decade later the world still considers him to in fact be “the Bayou Butcher.”

Now, on the 10th anniversary of The Honey Island Swamp Massacre, Yong shares his horrifying account of what really happened that weekend in disturbingly graphic detail. From his upbringing as an outcast...to his tumultuous marriage and divorce from television personality Sabrina Caruthers...to the hell that his life has become in the aftermath of “Victor Crowley”...Yong opens up about living through what is still considered by many to be the most brutal unsolved mass murder of all time. Narrated by Hatchet franchise creator and co-author of the book Adam Green.

It actually makes the films better, adding context and character backstories

By adding backstories and more context to the attacks in Hatchet 3 it actually makes Hatchet 3 and Victor Crowley better. It does make me wonder if there's some parallels to his own life though, due to the band that matches his own in real life and how detailed the backstory for the character is.

Long Live Victor Crowley!!!!!

I loved this book as a fan of the franchise. If you're a Hatchet fan this book is for you.

Pleasantly surprised!

I’m a huge fan of Adam Green and have loved his body of work for years. I finally got around to this book and I was incredibly surprised by it. This is a great companion to the Hatchet films, for sure. What surprised me though, was how much heart is in this book. Although a a work of fiction, I found myself forgetting that aspect. What Andrew Yong went through after the fallout of the Victor Crowley murders was insane and sad and terrible and could easily happen in real life. This book is so much more than just a great companion to the Hatchet films. I highly recommend it to all Hatchet (and Adam Green) fans

Kept my attention

The story started slow but had me searching for what happened next. Loved every second into the suspense horror, and the extra animation put into the account bring it to life. I enjoyed every moment

Very good!

if you're not a fan of the Hatchet films you most likely won't understand everything in this book but as a Hatchet fan myself I loved this book all the way through! It was pretty sad and real, which was unexpected. it definitely takes a different tone than the Hatchet films but it kept me intrigued the entire time!
