"Lures you into the crevice between Weird fiction and Appalachian horror where something inscrutable yet warm has been gestating. You will come back different." Michael Wehunt***, The October Film Haunt*** Welcome to Olyoke, Tennessee: home to a Dollywood-style theme park, generations of troubled families, mysterious plagues, and the prophecies of a dead architect turned cult leader who has foretold a fiery cataclysm. As the time of the fire nears, inexplicable events compound: Darcy, a Dolly Parton impersonator, finds strange worms in the swamp and feeds them to her dog, who begins to speak with the voice of Darcy's dead mother; Recently divorced Lyle Knox is called through its dreams by a strange house, and soon discovers that Lyle Knox itself is not a person, but a structure; Maggie Warner organizes a theater production to stave off her gnawing misery and becomes convinced that only the people she sees in her dreams are real. Moreover, the Whistler—the man Maggie becomes when she sleeps—welcomes the town's impending Judgment with open arms. Many destinies will converge in Olyoke. None will escape unchanged. "Steeped in the dark strangeness and wry dread of a classic Vertigo comic. An intriguing mosaic." Hailey Piper, A Light Most Hateful "As interesting and complex as you'd find in anything by Lynch or Ligotti." Briar Ripley Page, Lupus in Fabula "Absurdist, entirely of this moment and completely off the rails." Bitter Karella, Moonflow
