About the book

From the king of childrens horror, the third feverishly anticipated title in The Demonata.

Never trust fairy tales. There are no happy endings. There's always something new around the corner. You can overcome major obstacles, face great danger, look evil in the eye and live to tell the tale but that's not the end. As long as you're breathing, your story's still going

Nightmares haunt the dreams of Dervish Grady since his return from the Demonata universe, but Grubbs takes care of his uncle as they both try to continue a normal, demon-free existence. When a legendary cult director calls in Dervish as consultant for a new horror movie, it seems a perfect excuse for a break from routine and a chance for some fun.

But being on the set of a town called Slawter stirs up more than memories for Grubbs and his friend Bill-E.
