Felix Blackwell
A romantic cabin getaway doesn't go exactly as planned. High up on the windswept cliffs of Pale Peak, Faye and Felix celebrate their new engagement. But soon, a chorus of ghastly noises erupts from the nearby woods: the screams of animals, the cries of children, and the mad babble of a hundred mournful voices. A dark figure looms near the windows in the dead of night, whispering to Faye. As the weather turns deadly, Felix discovers that his terrified fiancée isn't just mumbling in her sleep - she's whispering back.Originally a contest-winning story on reddit.com's horror community NoSleep, Stolen Tongues has received widespread acclaim and is now being adapted into a feature film.

"Stolen Tongues has several amazing ideas and concepts, but it fumbles and doesn't use most of them to their full potential. The book starts off great, fast paced and wonderfully creepy, but it quickly devolves into repetitive and gory scenes. It's still a great read though, if just for the first half. "

"The creepiest part of this story was the prologue about Collin’s parrot. The story as a whole was pretty good, it gave me some Paranormal Activity meets The Ritual vibes. "

"Pros💚: literally the scariest concept ever, great imagery
Cons💔: it’s narrated by the worst white guy you know"

"I just finished this book.. it definitely had its creepy moments and the ending was closure… but I was spooked more by the prologue with Carrot the Parrot than by the rest of the book.. just the thought of a parrot looking at you and going “Knock Knock” and nothing being on the other side of the door.. is CREEPY."

"Great book! 100/10. I saw a review and someone said it wasn’t creepy nor scary and it was repetitive. I couldn’t disagree more, it was a great book. If you’re looking for a creepy and scary vibe this is for you. I really enjoyed this book , I’ll be looking into the Arthur some more so if someone has recs send them my way! "

"I. Loved. This. Book! It was creepy and thought provoking in its entirety. The prologue alone physically had my heart racing, and I can honestly say that I’ve never actually been scared while reading a book. I loved the characters and the historic basis of the setting/plot. 10/10, please check this out!"
