A quiet town. A patient monster. A boy who sees too much.
Sixteen-year-old Daniel Davis has always drawn monsters-sharp teeth, wrong eyes, shapes that don't belong in daylight. But when massive tracks appear behind his house, his drawings stop being imagination. They become memory.
Something is moving in the woods of Briar's Hollow. Something ancient. Something deliberate. And it has noticed Daniel.
As neighbors die and a classmate disappears, the town clings to denial. Only Daniel sees the pattern in the creature's slow, methodical circling-the way it studies windows, tests latches, and learns the weaknesses of the house where he sleeps. Only Daniel understands the unsettling interest of Mr. Harrow, the new substitute teacher whose calm smile hides something older than the town itself.
When the creature finally comes through the door, Daniel's world collapses in a single night of violence, terror, and impossible survival. Fleeing into the deep woods with nothing but his sketchbook, he discovers the truth behind his own drawings-and the clearing where the hunt was always meant to end.
The Howling Season is a supernatural horror novel that's atmospheric, character-driven, and unflinchingly tense. It is a story about fear, family, and the terrible clarity that comes from looking directly at the thing that wants you.
Perfect for fans of:
Slow-burn, small-town horror
Creature stories with mythic weight and emotional depth
The season has come. And it will come again.
