Summary

On Halloween night, the Hatebug emerges from its slumber and begins the search for its next target.

A Halloween children’s tale.
A demonic bug hungry for bloodshed.
And a family that can’t seem to catch a break.
One bite is all it takes.

Stella is no stranger to death. The Hatebug killed her uncle, her father, and now it has its teeth set on her. No one believes them, after all, it’s only a story. The bug has let her grow, it has let her form bonds, it has allowed her to fall in love. Now after seventeen years, the Hatebug returns to have some more fun.

The Hatebug is an extreme horror short story containing gore, violence, and a whole lot more.
