Five Rituals of the Forgotten: An Anthology

ARC Details

Bound in silence and stitched with smoke with whispers from the grave, Five Rituals of the Forgotten: An Anthology, is a collection of five esoteric horror tales. Each story is a ritual. Each page, an invocation.

Within these pages, a Wiccan uncovers a bloodline cursed by an ancient pact. A man trades his laughter for forbidden knowledge. A stick of incense summons something that speaks in grunts and sickness. Possession, madness, and unseen forces creep just beneath the surface and more.

Read with care. The gate remembers who passes through.

An interesting collection of 5 short stories. Mostly about evil books and people getting cursed for no reason other than it happens in these worlds.
It'll probably only take an hour or less to finishes these if you want something quick.
Scary stuff.

Five Rituals of the Forgotten is not a collection for casual horror readers. Its power lies not in cheap jump scares or frantic gore, but in slow ritualistic dread that lingers long after the final page. These stories creep under the skin, whispering in the silence and leaving the reader unsettled in the best possible way. At times it left me wanting more, more detail and more immersion, but that hunger speaks to the strength of the world Paert has built. A must read for fans of dark ritual driven horror and psychological decay in the face of the unknowable.
