Catherine Cavendish
Publication date: Feb 2020
From the author of The Haunting of Henderson Close praised by Booklist, The British Fantasy Society, Ladies of Horror Fiction and
many more!
In 1893, Evelyn and Claire leave their home in a Yorkshire town for life in a rural retreat on their beloved moors. But when astrange toy garden mysteriously appears, a chain of increasingly terrifying events is unleashed.
The Garden of Bewitchment is all too real and something is threatening the lives and sanity of the women.
Review:
This is my first novel by Catherine Cavendish, but it surely will not be my last. Her writing is absolutely breath-taking. With a haunting atmosphere and wonderful characters, The Garden of Bewitchment left me just wanting to read the book again.
This is a work of supernatural horror, but it feels like an old horror. I love that about this book. It doesn’t rely on silly scare tactics, instead it relies on atmosphere. With such twists and turns, as the story progresses, I was very intrigued.
The end of the novel is very intense. It’s like journeying into a dark hole, and it successfully managed to freak me out. I really loved it so much.
This book really caught my attention. I absolutely loved it and I highly recommend it!!

5/5☆

Cat first started writing when someone thrusta pencil into her hand. Unfortunatelyas she could neither read nor write properly at the time, none of her stories actually made much
sense. However as she grew up, they gradually began to take form and, at the tenderage of nine or ten, she sold her dolls’ house,and various other toys to buy her first typewriter– an Empire Smith Corona. She hasn’t stopped bashing awayat the keys ever since,although
her keyboard of choice now belongs to her laptop.
The need to earn aliving led to avaried career in sales, advertising and career guidance but Cat is now the full-time author of a number of supernatural, ghostly, haunted house and Gothic horror novels and novellas, including The Haunting of Henderson Close, the Nemesis of the Gods trilogy–Wrath of the Ancients, Waking the Ancients, Damned by the
Ancients – The Devil’s Serenade, Dark Avenging Angel, The Pendle Curse, Saving Grace Devine and Linden Manor. She lives north of Liverpool with her longsuffering husband and black cat.
