[@Crawkid] This is the best kind of horror -- reminds me of Lovecraft, the stories where you never see the monster and it's more terrifying because of it. Immediately I started thinking of Ruse that might have been created out of a horrible shipwreck or natural disaster -- or maybe a group of witches doing this intentionally. The mystery is intriguing.

As for the author -- maybe the author himself has a mystery surrounding him. Impossible to track down, his supposed house empty, his books published through strange means.

Deeper down the rabbit hole we go! xD
