The Easter Maidens

By Monique Snyman

Death is just the Beginning

Hayley Flynn's life seemed perfect. Engaged to the love of her life, accepted into Harvard Law, and with a dream wedding dress picked out-nothing could go wrong. Until one fateful accident changes everything.

Waking in a world that looks familiar, yet feels completely alien, Hayley finds herself alone, confused, and desperate for answers. Along the way, Hayley meets Margaret, a Southern woman from a different era, and together they travel with a suspicious stranger named Evan on a strange mission to the nearest town.

The idyllic village, where everyone knows everyone, and kindness is found in abundance, made Eostre seem like a slice of heaven in an otherwise desolate world. But Eostre soon turns into a sugar-coated nightmare with a dire purpose. Can Hayley survive a fate worse than death, or will she become part of a never-ending Easter ritual?

Perfect for fans of folk horror, mythological horror, and supernatural thrillers, The Easter Maidens blends eerie folklore with dark fantasy and psychological terror. Readers who enjoy cult horror, ritualistic hunts, predatory gods, and small-town nightmare settings will be drawn into this chilling tale of survival in a twisted purgatory where paradise hides something far more sinister-and where death is only the beginning.
