The Possession of Natalie Glasgow

The Possession of Natalie Glasgow

Hailey Piper2019
Margaret Willow has never met an eleven-year-old as dangerous as Natalie Glasgow. Natalie spends her days comatose, but at night she prowls her mother's home, unnaturally strong and insatiably carnivorous. With doctors baffled, Natalie's mother reaches out to Margaret, an expert in the supernatural. But even Margaret is mystified and terrified by Natalie's condition. She's dying, and before she dies, she might kill someone. Has a demon clawed its way inside an eleven-year-old girl? Or does the source of this nightmare lie with Natalie's dead father? A tight, tense novella, THE POSSESSION OF NATALIE GLASGOW twists the exorcism tale at every turn down to its final grave confrontation.-"The pacing, the horror, the dread, the novelty, the ending - this is a masterpiece." - Laurel Hightower, author of Whispers in the Dark "Poignant and shocking and bordering on the mythic." - Joanna Koch, author of The Couvade "One of the most original possession tales I have read. Ever." - Steve Stred, author of The Stranger

yalll!!!!! I started this thinking WOW I LOVE A POSSESSION STORY & then finished it wondering if something was wrong with me because I found the ending heartwarming. Editing to add more: The Possession of Natalie Glasgow by Hailey Piper is a very short, yet powerful read. I’ve ALWAYS been a fan of possession tales — demonic entities and all that jazz truly freaks me out, making possession stories something that actually crawls underneath my skin long after reading. One thing I LOVED about Hailey’s submission into this horror sub-genre is the fact that it’s different from other possession stories. I had 0 idea what to expect, in fact, I personally have never seen something like this particular story. & no matter how twisted, the ending warmed my heart SO much. This isn’t my first time reading something from Hailey & it definitely will not be my last. 🖤
