Some evils are buried for a reason.
Digger's Nest, Maine, is dying.
The mills are closing. Families are leaving. The forest is slowly reclaiming what little remains of the forgotten logging town.
When twelve-year-old Sam Luxford uncovers an ancient stone boar buried beneath his family's garden, he believes he's found nothing more than a curious relic. But the moment the idol enters their home, something ancient awakens.
The house grows unnaturally silent. Strange sounds echo through the walls. Nightmares begin to bleed into waking life.
And Simon Luxford; a devoted father and respected logging foreman; finds himself changing in ways he cannot explain.
As paranoia consumes the household and an unseen presence closes in from the surrounding woods, the Luxford family discovers that the idol is no forgotten artifact. It is a prison. A beacon. And something unimaginably old has begun to answer its call.
Now they must uncover the truth buried beneath the forests of Maine before the Blood Boar claims not only their home-but everyone they love.
Dark, atmospheric and relentlessly unsettling, The Blood Boar blends folk horror, psychological terror and cosmic dread into a chilling tale of family, obsession and ancient evil.
Perfect for readers who enjoy The Ritual, Pet Sematary, The Fisherman, The Wendigo, and slow-burning supernatural horror where the greatest monsters are often the ones waiting beneath the earth.
Once the Blood Boar is unearthed... it never truly sleeps
