eldritchhobbitSo it begins! Each day of this dark and beautiful month I’ll be posting a different Dark Academia title with a haunting, atmospheric quote. I hope you’ll enjoy the recommendations!
Dark Academia story: “X House” by J.T. Ellison, from In These Hallowed Halls: A Dark Academia Anthology edited by Marie O'Regan and Paul Kane (2023)
Quote:
There was a bog near the bridge, on the other side of the forest. The things that disappeared into that place… Animals. Trees. People.
Yes, it was beautiful, but it was dangerous. So many were lost over the years, women who vanished into the woods and never returned. Why someone would build a school in this desolate area was a forever unknown.
