Around - Paperback

by Thomas McFadden (Author)

For psychological horror fans and Christian horror fans, AROUND is a dark, mind-bending dive into faith, temptation, and the cost of knowing too much. With dark themes rooted in spiritual warfare, temptation, and the search for ultimate truth, this is a story that peers into the shadows of the human soul.

Five teens seek out a house in the middle of nowhere, hiding the dark-a void beyond time and reality, home to a demon who reveals the deepest truths of the mind. Each comes with questions only the dark can answer, secrets about purpose, destiny, identity, and the meaning of their pain. But some truths were never meant to be uncovered. When one of them asks the wrong question, the answer will change everything.

At its core, AROUND is a chilling Christian horror drama where the conscious and subconscious collide, and belief faces its most dangerous test. AROUND delivers a chilling blend of supernatural suspense, dark theology, and an unflinching psychological study of its main character, Nate, a devout yet conflicted believer wrestling with doubt, anger, and the silence of God. He is drawn toward darker voices, hoping they might tell him what Heaven will not.
