Festival | Tim Lebbon, Christopher Golden
2 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
New York Times bestselling horror writers Christopher Golden and Tim Lebbon create a music festival to die for in this illustrated novel with artwork by Peter Bergting! The Valhalla music festival commemorates a long-ago Viking slaughter, but when strange things start to happen it seems the massacre may be far from over. When festival-goers begin to disappear, and musicians find themselves playing mysterious and ancient songs as if possessed, the fans have to figure out what's going on before the festival site's haunting past comes back for blood.

Supernatural Viking massacre summoned via song during a music festival.

Gore doesn‘t make a horror. You need at least a whiff of atmosphere. You also must make the reader care about the characters. And, most of all, you need writing that shows the horror instead of telling the reared “oh, look, look, this is sooo scarry.”

(Honestly, my brain had turned off by the end. I didn‘t even know who everyone was.)

Very cool idea. Crap execution.

2/5

Super cool music festival vibes.

At the Valhalla music festival, on the site of an ancient viking massacre, crazy supernatural things are happening. What starts as a great day turns into another massacre. In this novella, things move quickly. The ending is exceptionally creepy. There are also illustrations that add to the mood. I love books with illustrations.
