A review by alicia_toothman
That Night in the Woods by Kristopher Triana

5.0

Scott Dwyer reaches out to his old friends and flame to inform them of their friend’s passing. He invites them to join him for a memorial for Steven.

When Jennifer, Mark, Corey, and Traci arrive at Scott’s house, it’s like a family reunion. It’s full of memories, stories, hugs, tears, and remembering the old times and their beloved friend.

As Scott reads Steven’s will, things start to get tense and uncomfortable. The next day, they set out to fulfill Steven’s last wishes and things take a turn. Buried trauma, feelings, and pure terror come to play.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Writing horror is simple.

Writing horror beautifully, creating a seamless movie in a reader’s mind, and building an aura of wonder and terror around them is not.

That’s what makes Kristopher Triana one of my favorite authors.

The story moves so smoothly and steadily, my jaw dropped when the horrors of Suicide Forest came to play. Even amongst the gruesome and gore, the writing style stayed consistent.

I highly recommend this book and can’t wait to order my signed copy!
