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.

[Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind wirklich nicht so gruselig!] Ich hasse Horror.

One type is the psychological scare. It plays on the characters' and readers' minds, like in 'The Shining' where the isolation and the slow descent into madness are really frightening. Another type is the gore scare, which involves a lot of blood and brutal physical harm, though this is more on the surface level. Then there's the supernatural scare, such as ghosts, demons, and otherworldly creatures that defy the laws of nature.

Sure. There's the scare of the dark. In many horror novels, the lack of light hides all kinds of terrors. Then there's the scare of betrayal. When a character you trust turns out to be evil or part of the horror, it's a shock. Another is the scare of the haunted object. An item like a cursed doll or a possessed mirror can bring a lot of fear.

Another type is the fear of betrayal. In the world of Shadowrun, where loyalties are often bought and sold, a team member might betray the others for a bigger payday. The shock and horror of suddenly being attacked by someone you trusted is a big part of some stories. A detailed example could be a shadowrunner team planning a heist. One member has secretly been working for the target all along and at the critical moment, they turn on their teammates, leaving them exposed to the target's security forces.

The scares in the 'the twins horror story' could come from the mystery surrounding their connection. Imagine if their thoughts were being controlled by an unknown entity through their twin bond. They could be made to do things against their will, like harming each other or people around them. And if the setting of the story is a desolate place like an abandoned asylum or a fog - covered forest, the sense of isolation and the unknown can heighten the scares.
