A Terror Triptych: Ireland continues her work, with stories that delve into the darker side of the Emerald Isle. Each story is accompanied by original poetry and hand-drawn illustrations, enhancing the atmospheric tension of the collection. Dark Legends ReimaginedLegacy, the first story, traces the cursed history of the Clairy family. The Clairys have fed centuries of blood into the Fair Farm of Clairy, and as an ancient Gaelic god demands more, their desperate choices lead to devastating consequences.
As Fallon writes, "This is the bed the Clairys have wrought. Generations of blood."The collection continues with Dungeons Under Dublin, where guards at an ancient prison discover why they should have left the old wing untouched. Fallon's use of Irish settings is not merely for atmosphere, but to invoke the weight of the country's past, its myths, and its lingering shadows. Readers can expect historical accuracy intertwined with unnerving fiction, making the horrors all the more visceral.
Finally, in The Dead House, the picturesque Aran Islands become the stage for Clara's unnerving attraction to the only house on the island left to rot in haunting silence. As one reviewer noted, "These stories are flat out, bone-chilling, creepy... The psychological touch was there, that's what makes you shiver."Praise for A Terror Triptych Reviews for the first edition of the collection have been overwhelmingly positive.
One reader noted, "These three stories are equally chilling and haunting and are likely to remain with me for some time." Another review praises Fallon's ability to deliver psychologically unsettling narratives. Fallon's writing, grounded in historical fact and legend, brings a fresh perspective to the horror genre.
