Horror Bites: Requiem in Frost
BLACK METAL LIVES!
Located in the deep frostbitten woods of Norway, Ingrid’s new home is old, spooky, and possibly haunted. Guttural screams wake Ingrid and her mother nightly. When they discover the shrieks belong to deceased former occupant and extreme metal musician, Skansi Oppegård, Ingrid investigates the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death. Hoping to exorcise Skansi’s ghost, she talks her mom into being part of a metal band. Oppegård’s last musical creation awakens forces beyond Ingrid’s understanding and causes Skansi’s murderer to resurface. In the battle between a madman and zombies, metal may be the only weapon she has.

Hail Satan! Hail Jonathan Fortin! Hail! (Raises horned salute) Actually, Satan isn't in this book, but lots of other great characters are! Actually, the cast here is small, so maybe I shouldn't use the word "lots" in my description.
I heard about this book while listening to an interview with the author on one of my favorite podcasts so I decided to check it out. I was very excited when I heard that the story centered around ghosts and black metal. There's also a story about family and acceptance and moving on and much frost-bitten positivity in there, but we need to talk about the ghosts and the metal and the magical microphone and forming a band with an enstranged family member and a dead guy. There's also a frozen lake. I loved this book, seriously. It's cold, wet, atmospheric, creepy, and fun. It doesn't seem to take itself too seriously but has substance at the same time. And, the author is also a black metal fan so he knows what he's writing about. Check this out for sure if you enjoy metal with your (somewhat) traditional horror. Another excellent addition to the Horror Bites series!
