Witch: The Cursed Manuscripts

Written by Iain Rob Wright

Narrated by Aubrey Parsons

On December 21, 2012, according to the Mayan Calendar, the world was supposed to end. It didn't. But on that day, 113 mysterious manuscripts were discovered around the world, each one written in blood by an unknown author. After several dozen unexplained deaths befell the finders of said manuscripts, a decision was made to lock them up for good in a secret vault beneath the Vatican. It is said that anyone who reads the stories will die, and as such they are now referred to as "The Cursed Manuscripts."

In December 2020, new manuscripts started turning up around the world.

MANUSCRIPT ID: 12/20-01 (WITCH).

Manuscript 12.20-01, discovered May 2021 in Aldershot, United Kingdom, by local rambler, Bryan Potter. Bryan Potter died one week later due to an undiagnosed heart condition. The following text was found carved into his back.

The storyline is good. The ending not quite as good. However, the story keeps you interested all the way through. we’ll paced story.

Can’t remember last time I gave a 5 star. I was looking for something dark with humor and found it here. Can’t wait to read more of the Cursed Manuscripts.

This book jumped off and kept going. The ending left me speechless.

[Ryan · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The reader was absolutely fantastic. The story was straightforward and sort of short. It reminded me of an R rated R.L. Stine. Goosebumps from my childhood, but definitely scarier. Some of the scenes described legitimately unsettled me. I was disappointed by the end but only because I wish it were longer. Despite how quick it all felt, the main characters still had time to breathe and were given enough life that I found myself feeling for them and caring what happened by the end. I will check out the other books in the series.

A pretty good story. But the synopsis doesn't really match the actual story very well. Perhaps someone should write a new description that more accurately previews this one.

[Fabian Sandoval · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

It was a good one, but as others have stated, the ending was blah!

[Kyle Ritter · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Ending sucked. Rest was good but that ending, man. Pretty bad.

[Frankie Pelletier · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

It was okay...predictable...I liked the main characters and their dynamic, but I also found them annoying...I like how it ended, but at the same time it left a lot to be desired...
