Hollow's Hauntology

A dazzling compendium of the world's darkest wonders, Hollow's Hauntology is a meticulously researched and beautifully illustrated guide to monsters, ghosts, mythical beings, cryptids, and supernatural lore from across the globe. It serves as an up-to-date reference for parapsychology enthusiasts, filled with the people, places, and creatures that shape our understanding of the unexplained.

Across eight chapters, the handbook explores humanity's oldest fears and fascinations, from the blood-soaked origins of the vampire to the forgotten werewolf trials, the shared rules of the restless dead, the evolution of demons, faceless entities without form, and the gods—old, new, and imagined—that have guided civilisations.

Evelyn Hollow brings a uniquely rigorous perspective, blending psychological methodology with cultural analysis. Her work reveals how etymology shapes belief, how folklore reflects collective psychology, and how overlooked myths still echo through modern culture.

Through 80 creatures, spirits, deities, revenants, demons, angels, and legends, this compendium charts the evolution of myth and meaning—inviting readers to rediscover what it means to be human beneath a vast and haunted sky.
