'Blood on Satan's Claw' is widely regarded as part of the 'unholy trinity' of cult classics which gave birth to the film genre that would become known as folk horror. Along with 'The Wicker Man' and 'Witchfinder General', it found new ways to terrify audiences using elements of superstition and folklore. Now, 50 years after its release, readers can experience the unearthing of this terror in the film's first official novelisation: a compelling and frightening retelling of the fate of unfortunate villagers sacrificed by their own children as devil worship infiltrates their rural existence.
