About this book

- [x]

From bestselling author of occult sensation The Halloween Boys, comes a sinfully fictional religious & dystopian story of naughty exorcism and sinful desires steeped in gothic mystery and lore.

Now I lay me down to sleep.

Impure thoughts sent me spiraling toward my fate. I was the holy daughter of Lady of Sorrows Church. The one meant to bring millions to faith in God.

I pray the lord my soul to keep.

But my own sins had my dad banishing me to a seaside church of terrors and the worst and most terrible horror of them all… the exorcist.

If I should die before I wake.

Father Dante Amorth was meant to exorcise me of my sins and send me back to my father pure and holy once more…

I pray the lord my soul to take.

And I’ll spoil it for you. Demons were found, even inside me, but none of it was what I expected. Thankfully… it was so much worse.

This book is dystopian horror with very dark topics and themes. Please read content information before proceeding.

Soul Changing and Beautiful Darkness

November 27, 2024

First, this cover?! Are you kidding me? I discovered this gem when I was starting to get into more Dark Romance/Gothic books. I have always loved horror, the occult, witchy, dark, soul crushing books. I finally found an author who BREATHES Halloween. She has me in a damn chokehold. Kat Blackthorne puts all of your haunted thoughts down in her books. Thank you, beautiful soul. Story of a girl who is locked away for her thoughts by her father, a priest. She is shipped away to an island to be...

I cannot get enough of Selah and Dante! This story was woven together beautifully and wickedly. I would recommend this read to anyone that wants something out dark, gothic, and spicy. )

Brilliantly dark and gorgeous

Selah Gothic is the book my convent school teachers would burn, and me along with it. It is blasphemous, dark, sacrilegious, and has two of the most compelling main characters I have read in a long time. Selah is the Holy Virgin Daughter of the leader of a cult church, the kind that claims to help others while torturing and tormenting many within, including her. When she is sent to be exorcised by the infamous Father Dante Amorth, two powerful forces collide - one of evil masquerading as good,...

I liked the book but the climax and the ending was heavily rushed. It threw me off. Wish there was more detail in the design of the churches. But yea I really liked it.Selah was a very likeable character. I would have loved the whole book in her point of view tbh or 3rd person limited. I feel dante pov was jarring in not a good way. It was too crass and vulgar in not a sexy way. Just took me out of it at times tbh..I just wished that when people do dual pov they don't always make the male...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check the trigger warnings and take them serious. Your mental health is important!!!! You are important!!!!! With that being said… I will start this with this….I felt so freaking seen. I am a survivor of childhood SA and to see certain quotes said by Father Dante Amorth….my heart. “No one should ever violate your privacy in such a way.” “Your body is yours. Not your future husband, not your father’s, not god’s, it is yours.” “I hoped she’d begin to believe that it belonged...
