Nightmare of Neverland
A gothic horror retelling where James hunts a vampire Peter Pan for his stolen son.
James carries the physical and emotional scars of a childhood encounter with a demonic figure disguised as an ageless boy. That monster stole his brother and left him with a hook in place of his hand. Years pass, but the trauma remains fresh when the entity returns to take James's only son. James abandons all hope of survival to track the vampire to its island lair. His mission is pure vengeance against the demon that destroyed his family. The story examines how grief can consume a person entirely. It presents a world where childhood legends are actually sources of terror. James's trusty hook becomes both a tool and a symbol of his suffering. The narrative does not offer redemption, only retribution against the evil that took everything from him.
This work sits within the tradition of American independent horror publishing. It reinterprets classic British folklore through a modern lens of supernatural terror. The book challenges nostalgic views of childhood mythology by introducing violent, bloodthirsty elements into familiar characters and settings.
