    Blair witch meets Stephen king
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2023*

Amazing read. Author is so descriptive and sets you up in the proper head space for the story. Each part builds, doesn’t quite make sense at first and then a few paragraphs more and things click. Click with a spine chill. I had nightmares about “her”.

    Good; Weird Parts
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2019*

Overall, I did like Hex.  It caught and kept my attention from the first page and I was eager to keep reading to find out what was going to happen.  Right when I got done reading it, I wanted to hop on here and review it, giving it 5 stars, but didn't because I felt that it fell short.  The realistic ending I didn’t really have a problem with.  I've read books (Stephen King comes to mind) where the end isn't necessarily wrapped up nicely and everyone comes out happy.(SPOILERS)The whole point the author was trying to make in Hex was that when mass paranoia/confusion take hold, humans are capable of truly frightening things; which is true.  What bothers me is that the author TELLS us that the witch, Katherine, wasn’t the true monster after all; it was the people of Black Spring who were the problem.  Even though everyone in Black Spring had very understandable and reasonable fears of her.Katherine is the constant threat in the book, and even the reader becomes wary of her because she is so unpredictable in what she does.  She is extremely powerful, has done truly awful things and is just SO bad that everyone in town KNOWS to stay away from her and how to avoid dying by her hands.  Katherine is the reason no one can leave and why the river/creek runs red with blood; why the townspeople have thoughts of suicide when gone for too long or after hearing her whisper.  The townspeople literally don’t know what Katherine will do next; will she kill them?  Finally take her revenge and torture them?  And when Katherine finally has a chance to actually use her powers against them?  She doesn’t.  The reader is told that she is just as shocked at what the people of Black Spring had done as Steve is.  That the people who were being driven by paranoia and fear are truly the ones to blame.  Even though Katherine has laid this inescapable curse on the town causing them to act like this.  It didn’t set well with me, because the author hyped up the witch and SHOWED her doing horrible things and then tells us that it’s not her fault; it’s the people of Black Spring.  It’s as if the author is TELLING us how to feel (contradictory to the evidence provided throughout the book) and not letting us come to our own conclusions.But the ending wasn’t the only problem I had with Hex.  There were the constant comparisons of things to nipples and breasts (sometimes the mutilation of them, which I'll have a hard time forgetting); and I don't normally mind it, but it was constantly brought up throughout the book when it could've just been left out - aka comparing Katherine to being the nipple on the 'breast' cocoon of children towards the end.  The overall imagery presented in the book was really strange at times.And the women didn't feel as fleshed out as the men did, they were just kind of there.  And I honestly don't believe the author was being misogynous, but one instance that was really weird was when the citizens would have suicidal thoughts and specifically the women had visions of being raped by some wild creature and giving birth to the spawn; whereas the men only wanted to kill themselves.Steve also has this weird thing about loving his first son over his second; and even going as far as letting his wife and second son be burned alive in a church because, he reasons, it was out of love.  But I have a hard time buying that the author tries to tell us that love can take away someone’s empathy and reasoning (aka becoming insane) and letting your family to die while you're the only one that makes it out alive.I felt like there were a lot of unresolved issues that I wanted explained, but I did enjoy reading it.  And keeping in part with the realism, the reader doesn’t get to find out all the loose ends; which is fine.  It was just weird parts of it that kind of took me out of the setting/mindset momentarily.

    Not quite like any other witch story I've read
  

*by G***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2017*

This book has a very interesting premise: In the town of Black Spring, located in the idyllic Hudson Valley in the U.S, a witch lives among the populace…a witch who’s supposed to have been sentenced to death three hundred years ago! Her spirit still menaces the townspeople, and indeed prevents them from leaving by killing them if they stay too long outside the town boundaries (people either die of heart attacks, strokes, or become determined to kill themselves), but…other than that, she’s surprisingly tolerable. An exorcism ritual not long after her spirit started showing up sewed her eyes and mouth shut, which seemed to seal off the majority of her terrifying powers. By the time the novel takes place, the only thing the ghost can do is wander around town, generally being creepy, but otherwise harmless (unless, again, you live in the town and try to leave). The town leaders, particularly the religious fanatic Colton Mathers, still don’t want to risk provoking this supernatural entity (and surely not unsewing her eyes and mouth, which would lead to the utter destruction of the town), so they try to keep her existence hidden from the outside world as much as possible, discourage “Outsiders” from settling in Black Spring, and keep residents from provoking the witch through an intrusive system of hidden cameras and Internet surveillance. But some town citizens, particularly young Tyler Grant, begin to chafe under these restrictions and invasions of privacy and try to reveal the existence of the Black Spring Witch to the rest of the world…which sparks off a firestorm of supernatural horror in which the 21st-century American townies resort to torture, lynchings, and other forms of medieval barbarity in a futile effort to stave off her wrath!I found the opening passages and general setting of the story to be its strongest aspects. It seemed to me to incorporate aspects of “magical realism”–that is to say, supernatural events being incorporated into people’s lives as if they were nothing out of the ordinary. The townspeople have, over the centuries, learned to live with this creepy undead witch just wandering around town, and we first see her in the opening pages of the novel interacting with the townspeople, who treat her as just another everyday nuisance to be dealt with. I haven’t seen many horror novels that do this, and I really liked it.The other thing I really liked was the climax. I won’t spoil anything for any readers, but suffice it to say that it’s *really* bloody, frenetic, and just plain crazy. So much happens, but the author still manages to make everything clear and very scary. An excellent, horrifying finale!Aside from those, however, there were a lot of things I disliked. First, I found the young protagonist, Tyler, to be annoying and contrived. A lot of his dialogue (and blog entries) made me think Heuvelt was making a stock “rebellious and naive but goodhearted teenage boy” character without any clear memories of how teenage boys really talked and acted. Tyler just seemed so cutout, like many other characters I’d read of in books of less quality. Second, and this is mildly spoilery, some of the plot points were either quickly dropped or nonsensical. Other reviewers on Amazon have mentioned how a new family comes to town for seemingly the sole purpose of providing an opportunity for exposition about the Witch, and then are never seen again. My own gripe is that they were even allowed to enter in the first place–later on in the book it’s revealed that some government authorities were aware of what was going on in Black Springs, so I see no reason they shouldn’t have passed a quiet exemption to fair housing laws or whatever to ensure that nobody else could ever buy a house in the town and thus be exposed to the curse. Finally, a major theme of the book is how human malice and cruelty can be even deadlier than a witch’s curse, and while I think that’s a good point to make, Heuvelt is kinda preachy about it–he “tells” rather than “shows” on a few occasions, suffice it to say.Still, the strengths of the book outweigh its weaknesses, so I’d still give this 4 out of 5 stars–you can knock it down to 3 if you’re so inclined.
