Motel Styx tells the story of Ellis Mercer, who discovers that his recently deceased wife has donated her body to the titular motel. The motel brags “Best Beds. Best Bodies”, and Ellis wants to recover his wife’s remains before her physical being and his memory of her are desecrated.

All Nightmare Nook Books are selected by our chief Book Ghoul, Cat. Here’s why Motel Styx is worth a visit:

“This was genuinely my favourite book I read last year, and possibly one of my all-time favourites. It’s incredibly dark, and at times disgusting, but it is incredibly well written and when I finished the very last page I had to stare into the void for a little while.”
