EARLY PRAISE FOR MOLTING!


“A searing horror debut overflowing with incredible and haunting imagery. This one will make you think twice about your next house renovation.”— Gwendolyn Kiste, Four-time Bram Stoker Award-winning author of THE HAUNTING OF VELKWOOD and RELUCTANT IMMORTALS
“MOLTING is madness, a downward spiral in the most authentic way, unapologetic as it shreds your psyche.”—Nick Roberts, THE EXORCIST’S HOUSE and LYLA, IN THE FLESH
“Kathryn Tennison has written a book that truly hooked me. Molting is tense, leading, and ultimately, one of the most horrifyingly engaging stories that I’ve read this year. From start to finish, this is incredible storytelling!”—Somer Canon, author of YOU’RE MINE
“Gripping and Intense, filled with emotional depth and vivid imagery, this story will linger within you long after the book is closed.”— Daemon Manx, author of The Ojanox series.
“Molting is suspenseful, shock-inducing body horror dug right out of a secret room in the basement of an abandoned house, reminiscent of T. Kingfisher’s “The Twisted Ones” only ten times as spine-chilling. Kathryn Tennison is a unique voice in horror who is now permanently on my Want-To-Read list!”— Jill Girardi, Owner, Kandisha Press
“What a wicked spin on the haunted house story! MOLTING portrays a descent into madness in authentic and terrifying ways other books can only dream of. Tennison has crafted a pitch-black rumination on what it means to lose yourself and never lets the reader find their footing for a second.”—Brennan LaFaro, author of the SLATTERY FALLS trilogy.
