House of Wyrd review
A big thanks to Jim Mcleod at the Ginger Nuts of Horror review web site for his considered review of my novella, House of Wyrd from PS Publishing. I was delighted and humbled by his kind and thoughtful insights.
I will warn there are a lot of details in the review, but here’s the beautiful summary at the end:
House of Wyrd is a novella that does what the best horror does: it makes the strange feel familiar and the familiar feel strange. It walks the line between magic and psychology, between the supernatural and the all-too-human, and it never loses its footing. McHugh has written something that feels both timeless and entirely of this moment—a book about the cost of ambition, the weight of inheritance, and the long, winding road back to the people we love.
The mountain is waiting. Walk it.
Thank you, Jim!
