Horror
For fans of John Dies at the End and Welcome to
Night Vale comes a tour de force of horror, humor, and
H.P. Lovecraft. The surviving members of a forgotten teenage
detective club (and their dog) must reunite as broken adults
to finally solve the terrifying case that ruined them
all…and sent the wrong man to prison. Scooby Doo and the
gang never had to do this! 1990. The teen detectives once known as the Blyton
Summer Detective Club (of Blyton Hills, a small mining town
in the Zoinx River Valley in Oregon) are all grown up and
haven’t seen each other since their fateful, final case in
1977. Andy, the tomboy, is twenty-five and on the run,
wanted in at least two states. Keri, one-time kid genius and
budding biologist, is bartending in New York, working on a
serious drinking problem. At least she’s got Sean, an
excitable Weimeraner descended from the original canine
member of the team. Nate, the horror nerd, has spent the
last thirteen years in and out of mental health
institutions, and currently resides in an asylum in Arhkam,
Massachusetts. The only friend he still sees is Peter, the
handsome jock turned movie star. The problem is, Peter’s
been dead for years. The time has come to uncover the source of their nightmares
and return to where it all began in 1977. This time, it
better not be a man in a mask. The real monsters are waiting. With raucous humor and brilliantly orchestrated mayhem,
Edgar Cantero’s Meddling Kids taps into our
shared nostalgia for the books and cartoons we grew up with,
and delivers an exuberant, eclectic, and highly entertaining
celebration of horror, life, friendship, and many-tentacled,
interdimensional demon spawn.
