Fuil Olagn Every night, sisters Saoirse and Imogen beg their Dadai to read to them from an old storybook, Tales from Ramnon. They're entranced by the mythical creatures described within its weathered pages. But when tragedy devastates their blissful childhood, the book is closed, and the sisters are forced to cope with a loss darker than they could have ever imagined.As Saoirse and Imogen grow into adults, they attempt to navigate their lives in County Cork, Ireland. But phantoms from their past have followed them, lurking in the shadows and wailing in the night. In desperation, one sister turns to drugs to quiet the horrors, while the other embarks on a journey to seek answers from the fables and myths of their childhood. BLOOD WAIL is a folk horror novella about addiction, loss and pain, family and love, and the possibility of creatures beyond our understanding. Sometimes the stories are real.

I did not read as much as I had hoped, but one creepy Banshee horror novel, a scary as heck audiobook (with killer narration), 6 good short stories, kid lit, and lots of Halloween movies isn‘t bad for a busy mom in 31 days! Thanks for the fun #TeamHarkness! Great job organizing and cheering us on, @StayCurious ... #scarathalon #halloweenreads

5 stars to this scary take on the wailing harbingers of Banshee myths terrorizing 2 sisters in Ireland. The frightening tales from their favorite childhood book, “Tales from Ramnon,” come to life. “There is no life without family,” & Saorise fights to save hers from the din of addiction & death. My family is from Cork, so I enjoyed the setting. Creature read and 2 more read-a-thon hours, so 32 points for #TeamHarkness & @StayCurious #scarathalon
