Der Elfenhügel

The mix of dark fantasy and horror made the story really intense. I'm curious whether this fusion was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The eerie, unsettling moments added a new layer to the fae mythology, but at times I wondered if it overshadowed the fantasy aspects. What are others' thoughts?

The fae in this story felt both familiar and terrifying. I wonder what sources or folklore influenced Feist’s creative choices here.
