HORROR GRAPHIC NOVEL!

A slick Halloween advertising campaign invites youngsters to take a ‘Scare Walk’ within the new haunted house on the outskirts of the city. Four intrepid youngsters set out for this spine-chilling walk –

But what should be a bunch of exciting scares becomes something else altogether. Each step, each new turn, each new room in the house leads the friends deeper and deeper into an illusory, nightmarish world that blurs the lines between fiction and reality.

As they realize the horrifying, chilling truth that these aren’t fake and manufactured scares, they want the walk to end and to leave the house.

But can they break free? Will they?

Andaleeb’s heart-stopping horror novella has been turned into a brilliant graphic novel by Upamanyu Bhattacharyya.

People going mad and murdering neighbors and classmates without real cause.
