And as the night goes on, Forest Inmann and his son Orson find themselves falling deeper into his cinematic nightmare.

Open this book (if you dare) to encounter a frightful horde of sepia-toned spooks - witches, wraiths, goblins, giant spiders, wild boars, evil clowns - and countless other unspeakable creatures.
