The Hunt of the Pumpkin King
Ratings1
Average rating4
Saw this for free on Twitter and immediately gave it a go! It just released the 14th, so check it out!
I wish this had been available for my spooky season reads, but it was good nonetheless. This felt like it had the same vibe as Dark Harvest by Norman Partridge, while being entirely different. Maybe it’s just the pumpkin heads.
Why is it that spooky stories come alive? Why is it that the dark and terrible lore is always true? The Pumpkin King is no different. Emil never believed it, was made fun of during the war for sharing it as a tale from his town. But clearly something is taking people out every autumn. Now that he’s home, that doesn’t mean it’s any realer, right?
Personally a 4/5*. Concise, written well, and dark.
