The Quare Fellow
A Scare at Bedtime
A chilling Irish folk horror tale about the deadliest sin of all.
Séamus O'Malley is the pride of his village, a clever man who has outwitted the Devil himself not once, not twice, but three times. In the smoky warmth of Molloy's pub, he holds court with tales of his cunning: how he saved his dying father, won his family's farm at a crossroads, and trapped Old Nick in a hawthorn tree.
Everyone knows his stories. Everyone fears his arrogance. And everyone knows that pride comes before a fall.
When a mysterious woman in a blood-red dress appears at the Harvest CéilÃ, the whole village watches in horror as Séamus's boasting finally catches up with him. She challenges him to one final dance, a dance that will end with a kiss that steals his soul and condemns him to eternal damnation.
Set in rural Ireland where mist clings to ancient stones and the veil between worlds runs thin, The Quare Fellow is a visceral tale of supernatural horror that explores what happens when a man values his pride more than his salvation.
Perfect for fans of Irish folklore, folk horror, and tales that will keep you awake long after you've turned the last page.
He always collects. Always.
