Le Chasseur d'âme

The blend of horror and fantasy created a really intense atmosphere, but I'm curious whether this was a conscious choice from the start or evolved during writing.

The tension was relentless at times, and I wondered if that was the intended effect or just how the story naturally unfolded.

The world feels so immersive and oppressive — I’d love to know if it was based on any particular influences or if it grew from the story itself.
