The Lost Village by Camilla Sten
4.0
I got The Lost Village by Camilla Sten from Ink Drinkers Anonymous in Muncie, IN via their blind date with a book subscription. Since I like horror, they sent me this as my first blind date.
All 900 residents of Silvertjӓrn have disappeared except for a newborn baby, wailing in the school, and the body of a woman tied to a pole, stoned to death. Alice’s grandma is from that village and her mom, dad, and sister disappeared. All that are left are letters. Alice plans to make a documentary of the Lost Village but needs funding. She gathers a crew to stay at Silvertjӓrn for a week to get footage to entice sponsors. But things go very wrong. Are they alone? Could someone have stayed behind? Or is it one of them, sabotaging the movie?
The Lost Village has been isolated and silent for decades but something is terrorizing Alice and her friends. I’m not sure I’d classify this as horror but it was definitely creepy, with some WTF moments and a few gasps from myself. All in all, I really enjoyed this blind date!!
