Midnight at Harrow's Fair

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Halloween, 1997. Six college friends just want a low-key Halloween weekend - VHS horror marathons, their Halloween parties, and avoiding midterms. But when they find a strange flyer for a one-night only carnival, curiosity wins out over common sense. The fair isn't on any map. No one in town has ever seen it. And yet... by dusk on Halloween night, the Ferris wheel is glowing on the horizon, and old music is drifting through the cold autumn air. What begins as a night of rides and cheap thrills turns into something far darker. The games aren't fair, the prizes aren't prizes, and the smiling workers seem to know more about the friends than they should. Whispers of unexplained disappearances trace back to the 1930s. And as secrets unravel, the group realizes that not everyone came to Harrow's Fair by accident - and not everyone will leave. In a place where the line between attraction and nightmare blurs, survival may depend on trusting the very person you're afraid of.

***A Note Before Entering***

Midnight at Harrow’s Fair is a character-driven, slow-burn psychological horror mystery with romance woven throughout. This story takes its time building relationships, atmosphere, and seemingly insignificant details before the full mystery unfolds.

The fair is coming.

But the road there matters.

Pay attention. Some details may mean more than they appear to.

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
