Description

On Halloween night, the residents of Parmenter Road are consumed by familiar troubles—fractured marriages, neighborhood feuds, teenage rebellion, and long-buried resentments—while Tony’s legendary Haunted Wood draws crowds of trick-or-treaters. Then four unsettling children appear among the revelers, strangers to the community and terrified of a figure they call the Cunning Man. As an impossible clearing and a sinister blackthorn tree emerge in the woods, the neighborhood’s personal dramas give way to a growing supernatural menace. Christopher Golden blends richly layered family and community tensions with atmospheric horror, creating a suspenseful tale about fear, fractured trust, and the desperate instinct to protect the vulnerable.
