Indigenous vampire revenge horror 🦬

if you haven’t picked up any Stephen Graham Jones before, you are in for a treat! his books are all very stylized and it may take you a bit to lean in, but once you do it’s impossible to look away.

the buffalo hunter hunter is gruesome, scary, and gripping. the characters and historical writing are so well done and the story is brilliant.
