With nerve-shredding effects and acres of certified-haunted woods, the Thicket is one of the top haunted attractions in the nation. But this Halloween, the usual accolades have been replaced by calls for a shutdown. Because this year, some of the blood is real. Management is quick to label the brazen double-murder of a staff member and thrillseeker as an isolated tragedy. They promise heightened security, metal detectors, and a new "no masks" policy. But the man in the grainy security footage hasn't chosen the Thicket at random. He's a former Thicket employee with intimate knowledge of the 300-acre haunted attraction. There are still forty-four days left until Halloween. And with all the media coverage, the Thicket is busier than ever. Taylor Bennett - along with half of Rupert High School - is planning a visit. So is Norah Lewis, who can't shake the guilt that's stalked her since the night her brother was murdered. And so is the man in the sinister black mask.
