The Holloway Hoax
A gothic mystery thriller about belief, legacy, and the secrets hiding in the woods.
Blair Graves doesn’t believe in monsters—but she’s running out of ways to explain what’s happening around her.
Months after the events at Solomon House, Blair is still lost. Her father—the infamous paranormal radio host who vanished without a trace—left behind more questions than answers, and the ghosts of that house aren’t the only ones haunting her. So when Cash Kelly, a paranormal YouTuber and one of her father’s former protégés, invites her on a road trip to a Bigfoot festival in rural Oklahoma, she says yes—if only to escape herself.
But what should be a harmless getaway turns darker when a local teacher disappears and rumors swirl that Harrison Holloway, a disgraced cryptid researcher once connected to her father, might have returned with proof that the monster is real. As strange symbols appear in the woods and locals begin to vanish, Blair realizes that this investigation isn’t about Bigfoot—it’s about legacy, obsession, and the lies her father left behind.
Taut, eerie, and deeply human, The Holloway Hoax is a gothic small-town mystery about belief, betrayal, and the monsters that live in our need to be remembered
Marnie Vinge
I grew up in Moore, Oklahoma, where a massive tornado swept down the plains and destroyed my childhood home. I've been writing dark and twisty stories ever since. I love weaving tales where nothing is as it seems, and darkness lurks just below the surface. I have held various job titles over the years, ranging from a self-defense instructor to a funeral director’s apprentice, both of which inform my writing to this day. And, no, unfortunately I wasn’t named after the film by famed master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, but sometimes I tell people I was anyway. It’s just too good of a coincidence to pass up.
