THE DEVOURING LIGHT by Kat Ellis

An isolated house with moving corridors, body horror, and secrets that will claim you if you stay too long.

Pre-Reading Thoughts:

I was ready for claustrophobic horror, twisted secrets, and interpersonal tension — a haunted house that’s practically alive? Yes, please.

Post-Reading:

As I thought… The house is a character in itself, menacing and claustrophobic. The tension between band members adds layers to the dread.

It surprised me by… The body horror elements and the meticulous, spine-tingling suspense. The walls feel like they’re closing in as you read.

Music Pairing:

🎵 Featured Song: “Bury Me in Smoke” – Chelsea Wolfe

🎶 Vibe Album: Hiss Spun – Chelsea Wolfe

🎧 Artist Recommendation: Zola Jesus

Vibe Check:

Colour Palette: Decayed wood, muddy green, shadow black

Soundtrack: Creaking floors, dripping water, whispering winds

Season: Late autumn/winter

Mood: Claustrophobic, tense, spine-tingling

Scent: Damp earth, mold, faint decay

Tarot Pull:

The Tower (Storyteller’s Tarot) – Pandora’s box opens, skulls and insects spill, chaos erupts. Mirrors the house itself: sudden destruction, unpredictability, and collapse of safety.

House of Hollow | The Haunting of Hill House

𝔹𝕝𝕠𝕘 𝕋𝕠𝕦𝕣- Does your hometown have any creepy stories? Apparently outside of mine there was a haunted children's asylum, which I actually didn't know about until recently, thanks to my husband. Today on the blog I'm featuring Burden Falls by @katelliswrites for my tour stop hosted through @tbrbeyondtours For my stop, I'm sharing an exclusive Q&A with the author about the book, including her inspiration for the novel and some upcoming horror releases that Kat is excited about. Head on over to the blog to see the full interview and be sure to pick up Burden Falls just in time for spooky season. SYNOPSIS The town of Burden Falls drips with superstition, from rumors of its cursed waterfall to Dead-Eyed Sadie, the disturbing specter who haunts it. Ava Thorn grew up right beside the falls, and since a horrific accident killed her parents a year ago, she's been plagued by nightmares in which Sadie comes calling—nightmares so chilling, Ava feels as if she’ll never wake up. But when someone close to Ava is brutally murdered and she’s the primary suspect, she begins to wonder if the stories might be more than legends—and if the ghost haunting her dreams might be terrifyingly real. Whatever secrets Burden Falls is hiding, there's a killer on the loose . . . with a vendetta against the Thorns. #yahorror #horrornerd #horrorlit #katellis #burdenfalls #blogtour #tbrandbeyondtours https://www.instagram.com/p/CTLlZXGL4uw/?utm_medium=tumblr
