Story
Renowned academic Dr Sparling seeks help with his project on a remote Irish village. Historical researchers Ben and Chloe are thrilled to be chosen—until they arrive. The village is isolated and forgotten. There is no record of its history, its stories. There is no friendliness from the locals, only wary looks and whispers. The villagers lock down their homes at sundown. A nameless fear stalks the streets. Nobody will talk—nobody except one little girl. Her story strikes dread into the hearts of the newcomers. Three times you see him. Each night he comes closer.

Episode Thirteen takes them to every ghost hunter's holy grail: the Paranormal Research Foundation. This brooding, derelict mansion holds secrets and clues about bizarre experiments that took place there in the 1970s. It's also famously haunted, and the team hopes their scientific techniques and high tech gear will prove it. But as the house begins to reveal itself to them, proof of an afterlife might not be everything Matt dreamed of.

Story
Allie Hilts was still in high school when a fire at a top-secret research facility released an air-borne pathogen that quickly spread to every male on the planet, killing most. Allie witnessed every man she ever knew be consumed by fearsome symptoms: scorching fevers and internal bleeding, madness and uncontrollable violence. The world crumbled around her. No man was spared, and the few survivors were irrevocably changed. They became disturbingly strong, aggressive, and ferocious. Feral.

Story
Once every year, Scoutmaster Tim Riggs leads a troop of boys into the Canadian wilderness for a weekend camping trip - a tradition as comforting and reliable as a good ghost story around a roaring bonfre. The boys are a tight-knit crew. There’s Kent, one of the most popular kids in school; Ephraim and Max, also well-liked and easygoing; then there’s Newt the nerd and Shelley the odd duck. For the most part, they all get along and are happy to be there - which makes Scoutmaster Tim’s job a little easier.

A group of close friends gathers at a secluded cabin in the wintry mountains of Colorado for a final holiday hurrah. Instead, it may be their last stand. First a massive blizzard leaves them marooned. Then the more chilling realization: Something is lurking in the woods, watching them, waiting.... Now a weekend of family, friends, and fun has turned into a test of love and loyalty in the face of inhuman horrors. The only hope for those huddled inside is to fight - tooth and nail, bullet and blade - for their lives. Otherwise, they’ll end up like the monsters’ other victims: bright pools of blood on glittering snow, screams lost in the vast mountains.

Publisher's Summary
You can't see them. But they can see you.
This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams.
Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time. Afraid and trapped among strangers, Mina is desperate for answers. Who are the watchers and why are these creatures keeping them imprisoned, keen to watch their every move?

Perfect for getting back into audiobooks
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. A nice mix of Irish folklore and the modern world. I was quite intrigued by the world the author created and was very satisfied by the answers it gives and the right amount of questions left unanswered to be left in suspense. I couldn't stop listening. I didn't find it scary but absolutely found the interesting.
I loved how the reader voiced the characters and the Irish accent absolutely lent itself to the story and folklore.

Bringing folklore and the modern world together is certainly different.
I'm not sure I actually "got" the end, though.

Very atmospheric.
Very listenable. Though not particularly scary, it does well to create a creepy and rather bleak atmosphere.
You won't see the twist coming, because it feels a bit shoe-horned in at the end, and needed to be supported by flashbacks of incidents and conversations that aren't shared with the reader till after the reveal.
The ending is even more frustrating, all the lore established tossed out in the very last paragraph to provide an unsatisfying cliffhanger.
If it's the beginning of a series though, I'd definitely give the next book a try.

Good, Just Not Scary.
I really enjoyed the premise of this book and it's setting, but for some reason I was never scared by it. I think the storytelling lacked that urgency. Even the revelations where somehow almost non-events emotionally. Not for me, but I am glad I gave it a go.

You must read or listen to The Watchers
This was a random recommendation from a source I can't recall. I usually only give 5 stars to those classic books, The ones I love to read over and over, but this book was perfect. It was the perfect length, there was no "get on with it", no want to rush ahead. Every word, every moment was perfectly constructed. You become immersed in the the story, Each character had a voice and they were amazing. You begged them all to keep going, to find a way of escape, to return to their lives but then it hits. And it hits hard! Loved every twist and turn!
The narrator was also amazing. She was extremely easy to listen to and was precise enough that I could listen without headphones and hear everything she read.

An awesome fast paced horror!
Thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook. The narrator easily created the claustrophobic atmosphere and portrayed the characters well.
Would love a sequel but maybe it’s best to leave this on the terrifying end it gave!
