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 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 has been optioned for film.
Stolen Tongues is a good old-fashioned horror story that involves a couple who set of for a romantic getaway and end up getting something they never bargained for. Felix and Faye are ready for a sweet getaway, but every night, they begin to hear voices outside. A storm threatens to make matters worse and there is a dark figure that seems to be haunting the house.
I really enjoyed this one. It's been a while that I have read a good horror story. The atmosphere was so creepy and anxiety inducing. I could feel my heart racing as Felix investigated the sounds and voices he was hearing. There are also some great gruesome scenes that jack up the creep factor. I will definitely not be renting a cabin in the woods any time soon. I loved the ending. This is really a book that you are better off not knowing much and just going in blind. I highly recommend it. I'll have to seek out other stories by this author.
