Hayle Coven Novels

Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

What are the characteristics of some lesser known horror novels?
Some lesser known horror novels often have unique settings. For example, they might be set in remote, desolate places like abandoned asylums or old lighthouses. They also tend to play with different types of horror elements. Instead of just the typical ghosts or vampires, they could feature things like malevolent plants or cursed objects. Their characters are usually complex, not just simple victims. They might have their own secrets or motives that add to the overall horror of the story.

Best Lesser Known Horror Novels: Any Recommendations?
I would recommend 'Lost Souls' by Poppy Z. Brite. It's a dark and atmospheric horror novel that delves into the world of vampires in a different and more gritty way compared to the typical vampire stories. Then there's 'The Keep' by F. Paul Wilson. It has a great sense of mystery and horror set in an old castle. 'The Shuddering' by Ania Ahlborn is also a great pick. It's about a group of friends who encounter a terrifying presence in a remote cabin in the woods.

For new horror readers, 'The Woman in Black' by Susan Hill is a great start. It's a classic - style ghost story that is not too overly gory but still very spooky. Another good one is 'The Ruins' by Scott Smith. It's about a group of tourists who get trapped in a place filled with a deadly and mysterious plant. 'The Grip of It' by Jac Jemc is also a good choice as it focuses on a couple who move into a house with a malevolent presence and the psychological toll it takes on them.

Can you share a lesser - known Eldritch Horror character story?
Sure. There's the character of Shub - Niggurath. She is often depicted as a fertility goddess in the eldritch lore, but in a very twisted way. Her presence is associated with grotesque and abnormal forms of life. In some stories, cults worship her in remote areas. They perform strange rituals that involve sacrificing strange and mutated creatures. These cults believe that by pleasing Shub - Niggurath, they will be rewarded with power and a form of 'fertility' that is more about the spread of chaos and the growth of the eldritch than normal life.
