However, as soon as the characters arrive at the rehab centre, this is where the ball begins to roll and where the plot comes into full strength, beginning with elements of mystery and developing into terror filled action that demands the reader’s attention. The first half of the book may be a bit much to get through, especially opening up with the main character in the middle of an attempted suicide. Hayward writes this story with an expert hand, intricately weaving fear and intrigue together to make for a deliciously haunting read. Matt Hayward is a Bram Stoker award nominated author ( who we’ve reviewed before), and reading this book, it is clear to see why. Originally published by Post Mortem Press, this edition of What Do Monsters Fear has been republished by Poltergeist Press. The centre’s counsellor, Jerry Fisher, is hiding a dark secret, one which has Peter and the rest of his group fighting for their lives while facing their greatest fears against an ancient evil. Though he quickly befriends the few guests he is sharing with, Peter can’t help but feel uneasy: not everything is as it seems at Dawson Rehabilitation. Tired and fed up with life, he goes to a rehabilitation program to get clean for the sake of his friend and future mother of his child, Beth. What Do Monsters Fear follows Peter Laughlin, an ex-rock star plagued by alcoholism.
