About This Book
Fifteen years after escaping Hollow Creek, Emma Blackwood is forced home by a desperate call from her sister. The town is falling apart, marked by hunger, strange symbols, and whispered talk of "the old ways"—rituals once buried, now clawing their way back. An entity known only as The Skinned One is stirring beneath the mountains. And it's hungry.
As Emma and Sarah uncover their grandmother's hidden grimoires and decode a language made of wounds, they realize the town's prosperity was built on blood—and the elders want "twin blood for twin blessing."
What follows is a haunting descent into folk horror, occult ritual, and dread, perfect for fans of Adam Nevill's The Ritual, Stephen Graham Jones's The Only Good Indians, and Cherie Priest's The Family Plot.
But breaking the binding won't be easy. Because Hollow Creek has already chosen them—and the Skinned One doesn't take rejection well.

Praise for The Hollowing Harvest
"An extreme folk horror novel that whiplashes you into the action and is unrelenting until the end… This story opens with full-on horror right away, no build-up. Fast paced, extremely gory in some places, and the threat of terrifying monstrosities breathing down their necks — I highly recommend this one."

"A first-class horror novel with all the proper aspects for dark evenings. Some very spooky motifs… driven forward to an ending and denouement. First-rate cover too. Really recommended!"
