How to Survive a Horror Sequel

Charley Ryan and her mom are on the run and have been since the Harrogate Killer died after trying to add Charley to their body count a year ago. Paranoid? Maybe, but Charley‘s seen enough horror sequels to know the killer isn’t dead, yet. Her plans are thwarted, though, when their car breaks down, leaving Charley and her mother trapped in a quiet Scottish town ominously nicknamed "The Devil's Punchbowl," filled with disturbing landscapes, unsettling inhabitants, and a bloody history of witch trials.

Burned by last year's betrayal, Charley tries her best to remain a lone wolf when she starts at the local high school, though, the lure of a fellow classmate makes her question even her best horror instincts. As townspeople begin to go missing in the lead up to Halloween and silenced ghosts vie for her attention, Charley and her new friends set out to defeat the local coven of dark witches

From avoiding the creepy basement to remaining wary of the disturbingly perfect popular kids, How to Survive a Horror Sequel lovingly highlights and subvert classic horror sequel tropes, crafting a book as bone-chilling as it is hilarious.
