Welcome to The Hellfire Book Club—Where the books bite back!

In this episode, we rip into The Ritual by Adam Nevill, a novel that doesn’t just flirt with horror—it drags you kicking and screaming into the heart of darkness. Join us as we plunge deep into the Scandinavian wilderness, where four friends' innocent hike turns into a relentless nightmare of survival, ancient rituals, and a terror that gnaws at the very fabric of their sanity.

The Ritual is no ordinary horror story; it’s a brutal descent into the abyss where the line between reality and madness blurs, and the horrors of the forest pale in comparison to the demons lurking within. We’ll dissect the characters, tear apart the themes, and expose the raw, visceral fear that makes this book a must-read for any true horror aficionado.

But be warned: This review isn’t for the faint of heart. We’ll drag you through every terrifying twist and soul-crushing turn, leaving no bloody stone unturned. If you think you can handle the truth behind The Ritual, hit that play button and prepare to have your nerves shredded.
