Fascinating Horror Novella

I was fascinated by this horror novella. I listened to the audiobook in one sitting as the story captivated me. The story opened with a disturbing incident, and the horror continued until the end. The tale featured Krampus, who was a scary creature believed to punish misbehaving children at Christmastime according to central European legend. Through the author's use of descriptive phrases, the horror was more palpable than stated, even though Krampus played a role. John Dunleavy's narration was great, and his performance enhanced the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

5 stars

Well done. Well narrated. Will be looking forward to the next release from this author. I received this copy free in exchange for an honest review.

Great story

I have always loved the legend of Krampus and was excited when I saw got the chance to review this ARC audio. I was not disappointed. The story was entertaining and well thought out and was short for an audio book (less than 3hrs) I was able to listen to it in one sitting.

John Dunleavy was the narrator and did amazing. I was a little worried at first with the accent but I was able to get used to it. He excels at all the voices he does and brings the story to life.

So if you like a bit of a dark holiday tale give this book a shot. You will not be disappointed.
