Publisher's summary

Shelley Campbell only meant to help people.

Recruited by her professor into working with a group-study program investigating phobias, Shelley has been using her ability as an empath to enter the minds of troubled patients. Within the dreamscape of their memories, Shelley uncovers their repressed childhood fears in order to help heal them.

But some fears are buried for a reason. Now, more than lost dreams are resurfacing. Something else is waking too, something dark and long forgotten, something hungry for the taste of our terror…

Shelley Campbell has gone too deep, has found the place where the darkness waits. A place ruled by the moon, a place where midnight lives, a place where every night is Halloween.

A place called Moontown

Critic reviews

“This finely written and sharply told tale is a strong example of modern horror…the kaleidoscope of peril keeps readers guessing and gasping."—Publishers Weekly

“Atkins’ fusion of fast-paced narration and surreal horror packs a large wallop…His continuously morphing and malevolent Moontown demon is memorable enough to rival Elm Street’s Freddy Krueger."—Booklist

Nightmare Come to Life

I found Moontown to be a true nightmare come to life. The story is creepy, suspenseful, intriguing, and in some parts a bit perverted. If you were afraid of the dark as a kid, this story will make you fear the dark as an adult. The narrator did a great job camping up the creep factor while bringing the story to life. This story will definitely make you second guess that shadow in your room at 3 am. I highly recommend this book if you love books with suspenseful horror. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own free will.
