The Leprechaun's Curse By Philip Stengel A forgotten pact. A cursed bloodline. And three ancient things that hunger beneath the bog. When historian Dr. Eamon Byrne arrives in the mist-shrouded village of Dunmoor, he expects to uncover a lost manuscript-an academic curiosity buried in Ireland's folklore. What he finds is a nightmare carved into ancient vellum: twisted, eyeless guardians, a pact sealed in blood, and his own family name etched deep in the margins. Locals speak in whispers. Luck twists into tragedy. The shadows laugh when no one else does. Thirty years ago, Eamon's father came to this same village. He left broken-and dead. Now the past is stirring, and the "wee folk" are nothing like the tales. They aren't mischievous. They aren't cute. They are the last thread holding something far worse at bay. But the thread is fraying. And blood must pay the price. A slow-burn folk horror novel steeped in Irish myth, psychological dread, and generational guilt-perfect for fans of The Ritual, The Fisherman, and The Hollow Places. Reader discretion advised: contains disturbing imagery, folklore-based horror, and mature themes.
