From the Shirley Jackson Award-winning author Scott Thomas―praised by The New York Times, NPR, Booklist, Library Journal, and The Hollywood Reporter―comes the long-awaited sequel to Kill Creek.

It’s been almost a decade since the murders at Kill Creek. What was only supposed to be a publicity stunt—four famous horror novelists in America’s most notorious haunted house—turned into a massacre. The survivors never told the full story.

They hoped it would just go away. That it would be forgotten. But now, the story is awake.

Winding its way through the hands of publishing’s biggest editors and Hollywood’s most competitive agents is a manuscript telling the true story of Kill Creek. It is carving a path toward bookstore shelves and bedside tables everywhere. And unspeakable things are happening to anyone who reads it.

The haunting has escaped the house. And it will do anything to make sure its story is told . . .
