"This punch-packing Halloween horror story plays out to a soundtrack of nineties grunge."
Scarecrow superstitions in a sleepy small town escalate to terrifying heights in Freddie Kölsch’s Empty Heaven - a unique YA horror mystery novel that explores forging identities and finding your queer tribe while revealing that monsters don’t always come in typically monstrous forms, and all this to the raw, gritty tune of grunge music.
While Darian has always loved spending summers with her best friends in Kesuquosh, a quaint New England village of folksy superstitions where she gets to escape being haunted by past traumas, all that changes when she heads here for Halloween and finds Kesuquosh in the throes of scarecrow fever. When her crush is picked to play a big part in a strange local harvest ritual, Darian and her friends are forced to follow a bunch of baffling clues in order to save her crush and the other townsfolk from the creepy Good Arcturus scarecrow deity.
Chilling, thrilling and funny, Empty Heaven ripples with cathartic energy as it showcases the nourishing power of found families.
You are safe, my child. You are loved, my child. You are surrounded by the good earth.
