Publisher's summary

A stunning return to Arkham Horror when a movie director shoots his silent horror masterpiece in eerie Arkham, capturing crawling nightmares instead of moving pictures, in this chilling novel of creeping dread.

Hollywood makeup artist and costumier Jeany Lin travels to Arkham to work on the new "nightmare movie" by enigmatic director Sydney Fitzmaurice. The star is her sister, Renee Love, Sydney's collaborator and lover. Desperate to outdo the thrills and terror of Lon Chaney's popular pictures, Sydney prepares occult-infused dream sequences for Love and her costars to perform. But there's more than mere imagery at play as the cast suffer recurring nightmares, accidents, and impossible waking visions. When events take a sinister turn and people start dying on set, it's up to Jeany to unmask the monsters before Sydney's obsessions doom them all.

Wordy with little excitement.

The story just talks and talks about the relationship of the narrator and the starlet but just drawls on instead of anything cool happening to the story . I don’t recommend . The only thing I liked is the voice performance …she’s trying to keep you but the book isn’t helping her

An enjoyable story!

I like all the Arkham stories but I particularly liked this one. Framed against a backdrop of early film, the story of the two sisters was well crafted and endearing.

Hours of milling about, very little horror

Extremely slow. Calling something "Arkham Horror" implies certain things, pretty much all of which were absent from 90% of the book. There were a bunch of people making a movie and they mill around talking about all sorts of things, highlighting the mistreatment of Chinese Americans in this era, and then a sort of scary thing happens at the very end. The reader did an acceptable job, but the story was not interesting to me. Most Lovecraftian horror gets to something horrible relatively soon, and focuses on resolving it through the rest of the story. This book focused on the interactions of the characters, much of which I could not follow, and had a tiny bit of something sort of scary at the very end. I did not find what was there very Lovecraftian. If it wasn't labeled Arkham Horror, I would not have any objection to it, mostly because I would not have listened to it.

10 hours of setup for 1 hour of lovecraft.

Feminism overtones. The story just keeps going and going and nothing 'spooky happens' till the last 2 chapters maybe. Very Bad.

If Disney wrote a scary story

Only get this book if you suffer from
Insomnia and need a cure. That’s the only thing it’s good for. Wasn’t scary, wasn’t Lovecraftian. Just boring.
