Roots Remembered

Roots Remembered is a chilling folk-horror duology that stretches across centuries, weaving two seemingly separate stories into a single tapestry of cursed soil, buried secrets, and the relentless echo of one young woman's fate. In these pages, the trees and roots remember... and those who disturb it, may pay a terrifying price.

In The Cunning Woman, the story begins in the 15th-century, where Sarah Holloway, an innocent healer known for her compassion and wisdom, becomes the target of fear, envy, and superstition. Betrayed by those she trusted and accused of witchcraft, Sarah faces a harrowing ordeal that ends in a death so cruel that it binds her to the earth itself. But the land will not forget her. Her story is one of injustice and vengeance, It's an echo that refuses to fade, haunting the soil long after the village has vanished.

Centuries later, in The Hollow Path, the past awakens. Two college students, seeking adventure on a Spring Break hiking trip, stumble upon the remnants of Sarah's forgotten village. What should have remained buried stirs with a malevolent curiosity, drawing the living into the shadows of the dead. As the students uncover the history of betrayal and blood, they discover that some roots run deeper than time itself, and that the choices of the past may demand reckoning in the present.

Together, these stories form a haunting cycle: Sarah's burial and curse in the old world, and the modern unearthing of that curse. The series explores the power of memory, the endurance of injustice, and the quiet, terrifying way the past can claw its way into the present. In Roots Remembered, the land keeps its secrets, but it never forgives—and those who disturb its roots may find themselves caught in a harvest they never intended to reap.
