Synopsis

When Felix and his fiancée Faye travel to her family's remote cabin on Pale Peak to celebrate their engagement, a sudden storm strands them in the woods. That first night, strange sounds bleed out of the trees — animal screams, children crying, a chorus of mournful voices — and a dark figure watches them from beyond the window.

Soon Faye begins to sleepwalk and whisper to something outside, and it becomes clear that whatever lives on the mountain has fixed its attention on her. Even after they flee, the presence follows them home, mimicking the voices of the people they trust to draw them close. To understand what is hunting Faye, Felix must uncover the mountain's buried history and the ancient entity that dwells there.

Originally a contest-winning serial on Reddit's NoSleep community, Felix Blackwell's Stolen Tongues is a tense, atmospheric supernatural horror novel about love, dread, and a thing that steals voices.
