Reclusive Reads

Where I read and review Dark Fiction, from the classics to the contemporary, while favoring the quietly atmospheric, with side trips into everything from Fantasy and Mystery to the occasional work of non-fiction.

The Hollower by Mary SanGiovanni

12:33 am 27 January 2015

A fast, fun horror novel that offers an fresh spin on the boogeyman mythos, transforming the closet lurker of childhood into an active predator of adults, bringing forth their hidden fears to feed upon.
Character development could have used a bit more fleshing out, but otherwise a solid first novel.
