Haint

A Dark Vampire Horror Novel Featuring the Gallogly Family

De: Samuel Brower

Narrado por: Adam McLaughlin

Immerse yourself in the heart-stopping horrors of an isolated and crime-ridden Kentucky holler, where the lines between myth and reality blur, and a legendary creature awakens to stalk unsuspecting prey.

In the aftermath of a tragic mine collapse, Sheriff Hunter Gallogly finds himself caught between two worlds. A man of law, he must navigate the treacherous paths of his ancestral land while investigating a string of apparent murders. When the sheriff’s drug-dealing cousins, Greg and Bob, become involved in an investigation into the killing of one of their dealers, the trio soon stumbles upon evidence that points to an impossible perpetrator.

As the body count rises and terror spreads, Hunter, Greg, and Bob form an unlikely alliance, bound by blood and driven by survival. Together, they embark on a perilous journey to confront a seemingly unstoppable creature and put an end to its reign of terror. But as they delve deeper into the hunt, family secrets are revealed that could tear them apart.

Against a backdrop of moonlit hollers and ancient superstitions, the sheriff and his cousins, accompanied by both deputies and criminals, wage a desperate battle for the survival of their town. As the creature’s power grows, and the community descends into chaos, the Galloglys must confront their own demons and find the strength to face the unimaginable.

Prepare for a heart-pounding narrative that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Will the Galloglys overcome their differences and put an end to the creature’s reign of terror? Or will they fall victim to the same legend that plagued their kinfolk generations ago.

In this gripping horror novel set in the depths of Appalachia, author Samuel Brower weaves a tale of bloodlust, family bonds, and the indomitable spirit of those who dare to face the darkness head-on.

Narrator was AWESOME!!

Yes, that’s really the best part of this story. I’m not into vampire stories; didn’t realize that’s what this was till I listened to it. But the narrator’s voices had me pulled in; he was that good. The story itself was just okay. Probably would’ve shelved it if it weren’t for the narration. Will look for more from this narrator (as long as it’s horror)! ;)

Great story!

Moved quickly from start to finish. No dead time. Great listen, especially this time of year.

Great Listen

I loved this book! Kept me interested and listening till the end. I highly recommend it!!

cover

This kept coming up on my "suggestions" list from Audible, but I always picked something else. That is, until I ran out of options so thought I might as well give it a listen. I hadn't even finished it before ordering it in paperback for my "favorites" bookcase. Audible knows me so well!

Great book- absolutely fantastic

It’s hard to find a good vampire story or movie that’s new - most are for the younger readers, long series, or romance books. I was searching for a good vampire horror story and I found it in The Haint. I honestly couldn’t put it down until it was over and although the end was exactly what it should have been I was still hoping for a happier ending for some of the characters. I definitely enjoyed this book and if you enjoy Vampire Horror then I suggest you take a look at HAINT.

What a gem

This was a great little gem of a horror story find, definitely recommend. It was entertaining from start to finish, loved it.

Nice

I was really impressed with how the author put this book together. The characters were believable and overall likable.

Dope!

Liked the entire theme- awesome dope hillbilly vampire was realistic- I would read it all again

A Perfect Horror Story

well written, good ending, and great performance. I love when I find gems like these on audible. horror is usually so predictable but this one had me guessing how it was going to end, and it didn't disappoint. I was a little apprehensive on some bits of the plot, but I stuck with it, and I'm glad i did. Narrator did a great job keeping the story interesting. All around good horror read.

The narrator was excellent with all the different characters.

Wish it were longer. i really got into it. I finished it in one day listening to it on the subway.
