You thought the monsters under your bed were scary...
For Drew-who unwillingly goes by Stickboy at school-monsters are everywhere.
It all started when his grandpa told him the unfinished story of the Sidehill Gougers. Ever since, it feels like something's been following him. But in Drew's small Midwest town, the Gougers might not be his biggest threat. There's Banana Head, Moonface, the Can Man... even his family might not be entirely human.
Drew's life becomes a never-ending maze of ruts, chokepoints, and traps. Every dark corner seems to be holding the potential for the monsters to strike. The harder he fights against the suffocating ruts of Midwest life and the monsters' chokepoints, the tighter they pull him toward an inevitable, terrifying dead end.
Until Drew discovers what could be his salvation. Strangely, it looks a lot like the keys to an old '74 Chevy Nova. But these keys might not just start an engine-they might unlock a means of escape.
Survival isn't guaranteed in A Midwest Horror.
