⚠️ CW: torture, murder and mentions of incest ⚠️ If you're looking for a chilling horror surrounding superstitions then this one is for you. Renowned academic Dr Sparling seeks help with his project on a remote Irish village. Historical researchers Ben and Chloe are thrilled to be chosen - until they arrive. The village is isolated and forgotten. There is no record of its history or its stories. There is no friendliness from the locals, only wary looks and whispers. The villagers lock down their homes at sundown. It seems a nameless fear stalks the streets, but nobody will talk except for one little girl. Her words strike dread into the hearts of the newcomers. Three times you see him. Each night he comes closer. That night, Ben and Chloe see a sinister figure watching them. He is the Creeper. He is the nameless fear in the night. Stories keep him alive. And nothing will keep him away. This book was such a good read and really gave me that eerie, chilling feel throughout that I loved. The plot was so intriguing and really held my attention with the twists and turns. However, I didn't like any of the characters. I found them all to be quite irritating and they didn't seem to have much depth in my opinion. Despite this though I still really enjoyed this read and the lore behind the Creeper. Overall, this was a good read and if you're in to atmospheric and chilling horrors then I recommend giving this one a go.
