You cannot imagine the amount of love I have for horror books, and this year I read many of them. The most interesting thing is that I read this to see if it fit my Magnus Archives horror recs prompt for the Lonely, and it absolutely did. If you are a fan of horror stories, fishing, old tales and stories about grief and loss, this is for you, and you will enjoy it to the fullest.

P.S German is such a nice language for dark fantasy names and terms
