How to Survive a Horror Story
(eBook)
Description
Seven authors enter the manor Can they survive the story within? When legendary horror author Mortimer Queen passes, a group of writers find themselves invited to his last will and testament reading expecting a piece of his massive fortune. Each have their own unique connection to the literary icon, some known, some soon to be discovered, and they've been waiting for their chance to step into the author's shoes for some time. Instead, they arrive at his grand manor and are invited to play a game. The rules are simple, solve the riddle and progress to the next room. If they don't, the manor will take one of them for itself. You see, the Queen estate was built on the bones of Mortimer's family, and like any true horror story, the house is still very, very hungry. With the clever, locked-room thrills of "Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone" with the ghostly horror of "The Fall of the House of Usher", "How to Survive a Horror Story" is a bright, biting, thrill-ride that begs us to contemplate how the best horror stories come to be.
