Description
In the coastal town of Malcasa Point, the Beast House draws tourists by day with tales of the terrifying creature said to have once lived there—but after dark, even the locals keep their distance. When teenager Janice Croyan discovers the diary of a former resident while working at the Welcome Inn, she begins uncovering disturbing secrets behind the attraction’s gruesome legend. As fear, obsession, and long-buried violence converge, the boundary between tourist spectacle and genuine horror begins to collapse. Blending seaside atmosphere, escalating suspense, and visceral terror, this novel explores the darkness hidden beneath small-town entertainment and local folklore.
