Author Description

A Children's Horror Book... for the Brave Ones. They say Belizean folklore is just stories-tales to scare kids into behaving. But what if the stories are real? What if the Duende does lurk in the forest, what if La Sucia does haunt the riverbanks, and what if the bush really is watching... waiting? In this chilling collection of original horror stories, ancient Belizean legends come alive-fanged, furious, and unforgiving. From cursed gifts and forest spirits to river witches and bush-born babies, every tale is steeped in local superstition and crafted to disturb. Each story is more than just scary-it's a warning. Disrespect the old ways? Mock the spirits? Step too far into the dark? There's a price. And in these pages, someone always pays it. Perfect for readers 12+, and fearless kids 8+ who love the thrill of a good scare.
