The Witchfinder's Daughter

by Adam Caisse
No reviews yet. Be the first.

In 17th-century Europe, witchfinder Hannes believes he is purging the world of evil, armed with the Malleus Maleficarum and unshakable faith. But his daughter Beatrix sees what he cannot — a supernatural “evil eye” that reveals a far more horrifying truth.

As Hannes hunts a hidden coven, buried secrets rise, forcing father and daughter to confront a devastating possibility: the real monsters may not be the witches they burn, but the scars of war, blind faith, and obsession they carry within themselves.

A chilling folk horror and grimdark historical tale of moral ambiguity, where the line between hunter and hunted is never what it seems.

Author note: This has extremely disturbing elements to it, but they serve a purpose. There are direct references to the Bible in it also. It is not meant to be interpreted as morally ambiguous, and if someone does read it that way, they didn't get it.
