About this listen

An ancient evil rises...burns...kills....

After a fire consumes the Heller Home for Children, the residents of Morganville, North Carolina thought they knew evil....

They were wrong.

Unaware of the turmoil in their new hometown, the Littles—David, Kate, and seven-year-old Becca—are moving from New York City to Morganville in hopes of repairing their own lives, which were recently shattered by an act of sexual violence.

Before long, David realizes that his family's troubles are worse than he could ever have imagined.

An ancient demon lurks beneath the town of Morganville, an unholy creature conjured into existence by the Heller Home tragedy.

Its name is Moloch.

It is hungry for the souls of the townspeople.

But most of all, Moloch wants the children. It will not rest until it has them.

All of them.

Engaging Horror/Thriller

The story wears an influence of Salem's Lot right on its sleeve and the resulting small town afflicted by an evil story feels recontextualized for a new generation. Spectacular narration helps bring the story to life and leaves the listener clamoring for the next chapter even if the twists and turns may be a little easy to predict.

Yuck

I love gross horror but this is badly written and tries to hide behind weirdly sexual horror. I can deal with that but the idea for the story is mediocre and the main character who saves the day is weak and a horrible person.
