Lost in a labyrinth of circus tents....

"Truly unsettling... a great read from beginning to end." (Candace Nola, Splatterpunk Award Winner)

Dave and his four-year-old, Jacob, find a circus tent in the woods behind their house. A strange voice invites them through the dark doorway.

When they refuse, the tent swallows them.

What follows is a nightmare fleeing through a maze of circus tents. Strange performers lurk inside. They want Dave and his little boy to put on a show. The audience: a shifting figure on a platform high above the trapeze wires.

With Jacob perched in the crook of his arm, Dave determines to outsmart the boss of this dark circus, and escape this horrifying tent.

I Found a Circus Tent in the Woods Behind My House is a horror novella from the “darkly inventive” purveyor of creepy places, wondrous evils, and can’t-look-away storytelling, Ben Farthing.

I've never heard of this author or this book. I actually came across it looking for a different horror book but the title got my attention; I'm glad I gave it a shot. The author does a great job of packing the feeling of helplessness, anxiety, even claustrophobia very quickly in such a short listen. As a parent you're definitely going to feel anxious listening. It's not gory or violent but it is fast paced and definitely gives you a feeling of discomfort wondering whats happening, why it's happening, and how theyre going to come out of this. I will be looking into finding more from this Author.

Found a little gem!

The story has Killer Klowns from Outer Space vibes intertwined with Pennywise vocal similarities provided by the narrator. Enjoyable, quick read.

Fun for the whole family!

The title alone had me intrigued from the first time I heard it. This story is fast paced and absolutely terrifying. As a parent I could empathize with this protagonist and the split second decisions he is forced to make. Don’t get me wrong you don’t have to be a parent to appreciate this quick, enthralling, and well executed bite sized horror story- I enthusiastically encourage everyone to give it a go. I know I am one of the “strange readers” the author talks about at the end of the book and will be reading more of his work.

Perfect Title and a Perfectly Crafted Fast-Paced Horror Tale

I was hesitant using a credit for a book that was so short but I’m so glad I did. The book grabs you right from the beginning and doesn’t slow at any point! Great writing that allows you to visualize the story as the narrator reads. I can’t wait to hear the next one! I hope this gets picked up as a movie or mini-series.

Should be a movie!
