Claws of the Hollow

By Lonnie Webb

In the summer of 1978, when Star Wars fever gripped the nation and every backyard became a galaxy far, far away, eight-year-old Tom and his ragtag band of friends roamed the sun-drenched farmlands of rural America. Armed with makeshift lightsabers and boundless imagination, they turned dusty barns into enchanted fortresses and whispered woods into realms teeming with monsters and magic. For them, the impossible was just another adventure waiting around the bend.

But far from their idyllic games, Professor Werner, a daring archaeologist, has mistakenly unearthed something ancient and unspeakable in the shadowed ruins of Nepal-cosmic forces that defy human comprehension, awakening horrors from beyond the stars. One by one, his team falls victim to grisly murders. He realizes the nightmare won't stop there: it's hunting their families too. Racing across America, Werner's desperate path leads to Tom's father.

In this chilling tale of innocence clashing with eldritch terror, reminiscent of H.P. Lovecraft's cosmic dread blended with the wonder of childhood discovery, one question looms: Will the professor be in time?

Perfect for fans of Goonies and the eerie nostalgia of Stranger Things.
