“It's fabulous. A triumph.”

“Dark and
brutal... Wytches are like nothing horror fans have ever seen”
-USA Today
Everything you
thought you knew about witches is wrong. They are much darker, and they are much
more horrifying. Wytches takes the mythology of witches to a far
creepier, bone-chilling place than readers have dared venture
before.
When the Rooks family moves to
the remote town of Litchfield, NH to escape a haunting trauma, they're hopeful
about starting over. But something evil is waiting for them in the woods just
beyond town. Watching from the trees. Ancient...and hungry. Collects
Wytches #1-6.

terrifying comic you've ever read.” -MTV

“Very, very scary...
Much like the works of Mary Shelley and the other writers of the Villa
Diodati..." -Paste

“Snyder has
tackled horror before, but Wytches sets out to be an entirely new level
of scary." -Complex

“An awesome and
at times terrifying tale.” -IGN
I'm so happy I gave this another shot. Having read Scott Snyder's Severed earlier this year, I knew I wanted to give this another go.
When the issues were being published I had grabbed the first 3 every month, but I couldn't get into the story at all. And I know why now. This story lends itself to be read completely start to finish without 30 days in between.
The art style may be one of my favorites, and Snyder's storytelling is so mesmerizing. His characters are interesting and their connections with each other adds this family element to a horror story that I sometimes don't get but feel like I need going forward.
That element of this story is what made it. Sail and her father's bond was undeniable and really brought this story to life and made it a very fulfilling read.
I highly recommend it!
