The Crossing

Religious horror · Now published

The church was supposed to be a refuge.
Now faith is being tested through survival.

When unexplained disturbances spread through a small rural parish, denial gives way to open possession. The sacred space at the center of the community turns violently hostile.

For the people bound to the church, resistance demands sacrifice. Once something crosses into the world, it does not leave quietly.

Inside the novel

Faith. Survival. Sacrifice.

A serious, confrontational work of religious horror: no irony, no safe distance, and no comfort in metaphor. The threat is physical, the choices carry a cost, and faith offers no easy escape.

Paul Michael Durivage writes horror and speculative fiction that hold difficult questions steady under extraordinary pressure.
