The Horror at Pleasant Brook
Supernatural Horror
by Kevin Lucia
At the edge of the Adirondacks, an ancient malevolence descends upon the quiet town of Pleasant Brook, setting the stage for a chilling battle between the forgotten and an unstoppable evil.
Standing resolutely in its shadow is an unlikely alliance—the remnants, the forgotten, the outcasts, and the underestimated. As the malevolence swells, they emerge as the town’s last bastion of defense, its only hope against an ancient, remorseless force that brooks no resistance.
Yet, how can they hope to prevail against a power so ancient, so pitiless, so inexorable? The town of Pleasant Brook becomes the battleground for a confrontation between humanity’s resilience and an evil beyond imagination.
“Kevin Lucia paints in blood and dances in the viscera in a terrorized small town. Chilling and non-stop, horrifying in the best kind of way. Forget Halloween movies and pick up The Horror at Pleasant Brook instead.” —NYT bestselling author Tosca Lee

REVIEW
5 out of 5
A dark, chilling read that’s a bit gorey. Lucia did an amazing job of building up the suspense and chills, from the opening to the grisly end. A small town, Halloween, and a creeping horror preying on the townspeople? What else do you need for the perfect setting for a terrifying read? The story itself moves along smoothly, and the descriptions are so vivid it’s like watching a movie unfold (so if gore turns your stomach, you might want to skip this one). A great book for anyone who loves horror that will have you looking over your shoulder at every small sound as you read.
