Publisher's Synopsis
Updated and revised, August 2024
"Disturbing to the point that you wonder about the author." -Amazon Review Whatever is under the cabin-it's awake. And hungry. "I couldn't put it down, had to keep reading. I'm a big Stephen King fan, and although no one can come close, I got a similar satisfaction from this book." -Amazon Review Jason and Bill are small-town cops patrolling the outskirts of their small Georgia town when a frantic woman steps into the glare of their cruiser's front headlights. She's been assaulted within an inch of her life, and she's not making much sense. She tells them about the man kidnapping women and keeping them chained up in his house. She's not the first, and if Jason and Bill don't do something, she won't be the last. The only problem is, nobody lives out that way-that they know of... You see, every small town has its secrets, and people have always said...things about that part of Lumber Junction. How haunted it is. How it's been used by cults. How the ground is poisoned. In order to get to the bottom of this bizarre crime, Bill and Jason will have to venture out where the police radios don't work, out where a person's mind plays tricks on him, in order to track down a serial killer. Only, there might be something worse than that lurking in the creaky, abandoned cabin. And they won't have any idea. Not until they step foot inside...the Playroom. As one Audible review says, "The author said and I quote 'serial killer victims impregnated by alien parasites' and that pretty much sums up the whole book." There's plenty of horror and mystery as readers slowly uncover the terror hidden in the backwoods of a small southern town. The Playroom is a page-turning extreme horror novel that does not shy away from violence and gore as it explores horrors similar to those found in the works of Jack Ketchum and Richard Laymon. Fans of Stephen King's alien horror novels-like The Tommyknockers and Dreamcatcher-will find plenty to love in this novel. "...The author is really talented, and in the most suspenseful moments, I was every bit as enthralled as I've felt in my favorite Stephen King novels." -Amazon Review
