TROLL - Terror for the Holidays

A Winter Survival Creature Feature

The Snow Globe has been shaken. Now they have to survive what lands when the flakes settle.

Nora planned the perfect escape: a luxury cabin perched on a high ridge in Norway. It was supposed to be a week of wine, fireplaces, and disconnection from the digital world. It was supposed to be a cure for the past year.

But the "Blue Hour" brings more than just darkness to the valley.

When a massive blizzard buries the access road and severs the power lines, the isolation turns from peaceful to predatory. The group discovers they are not alone on the mountain. Something ancient is circling the cabin. Something that peels the siding off the walls to test the insulation. Something that follows a set of medieval rules involving iron, salt, and bells.

It isn't a bear. It isn't a wolf. It is a landlord that has come to collect a bloody rent.

Trapped in a glass house that is rapidly freezing, Nora and her friends must turn their holiday retreat into a fortress. But the diary found in the barn says the last guests didn't make it past Christmas Eve, and the sun isn't scheduled to rise for another eighteen hours.

Iron burns it. Light freezes it. But nothing stops it.

TR0LL- from holiday HELL !

I read ( listen to ) a bunch of “monster” books. My choice within that genre is the “horror-action” tale. The best example of that is “Aliens”. In that film there were aliens attacking the characters in horrific ways. Yet, the hero’s were able to defend themselves which created lots of action. One of the best hyped up emotions sparked from this situation is the “righteous revenge”. Oh how I dig me some “righteous revenge”! Many horror tales have feeble victims against an indestructible villain. Scary, perhaps, but if you feel for the characters it could lead to an overall, odd & unsatisfied ending. If, however, the battle tween good & evil gets down to tooth & nail fighting - with the wounding, maybe killing of the antagonist, protagonist and anyone else who gits in the darned way! Well… that is an exciting story! 0f course in the spirit of not giving away anything, I’ll only state that “TR0LL-Terror for the Holidays” was an exciting story, indeed. I enjoyed.
