Monstrous Nights

The concept of nights where secrets come to light is so intriguing. I'm curious whether this came from folklore, personal imagination, or a specific theme the author wanted to explore.

The blend kept me hooked, but I wonder if others felt some aspects leaned more toward horror or magic—what was the author's intention behind this mix?

The rules of magic felt both familiar and fresh, prompting questions about how much of it was planned versus evolved during writing. Would love to hear others' thoughts.
