Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Obviously, H.P. Lovecraft is the pioneer of Lovecraftian horror novels. His works are filled with a sense of the ineffable and the terrifyingly unknown. But there are others. Caitlín R. Kiernan has written some great works that can be considered Lovecraftian. Her writing often explores the same themes of the grotesque and the unknowable. Ramsey Campbell is also a significant figure. He has taken the basic elements of Lovecraftian horror, such as the ancient evils and the sense of a world that is far more terrifying than we can imagine, and crafted his own unique stories within this framework.

One main theme is the insignificance of humanity. In the context of WW2, with all its destruction and chaos, the Lovecraftian elements add another layer where humans are just tiny specks in a vast, unknowable cosmos. For example, in some novels, the great powers at war are still powerless against the cosmic entities from Lovecraft's lore.

In a desolate town, there was an old, dilapidated mansion on the outskirts. The townsfolk whispered of strange noises that came from it at night. One young man, driven by curiosity, decided to enter. As he stepped inside, a cold chill ran down his spine. The air was thick with an otherworldly stench. He saw shadowy figures moving in the corners, their forms twisted and unnatural. Suddenly, a deep, guttural voice echoed through the halls, speaking in a language he couldn't understand. Fear overtook him, but his legs were frozen. He could only watch as the shadows closed in, and then... darkness.
