When a massacre becomes a conspiracy theory

After surviving the Kettle Springs massacre, Quinn hopes college will let her return to ordinary life. Instead, online theories deny that the massacre happened, and the doubt reaches her campus and dorm. A clown attack at a fraternity party, timed with an attack on her father back in Kettle Springs, draws her toward the cornfields where the nightmare began. The setup links the book’s horror to a conflict over who gets believed when public narratives contradict someone’s experience. As the sequel to *Clown in a Cornfield*, it carries Quinn’s story from the town into college before bringing her back to its original setting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teen and young adult readers interested in horror and suspense.
  • Readers looking for a sequel that continues Quinn’s story from *Clown in a Cornfield*.
  • Readers interested in horror involving online conspiracy theories and contested accounts of violence.

Book overview

It's an all-new horror classic about what happens when the truth is the last thing we want to believe, from Bram Stoker Award-winner and master of thrills and chills, horror legend Adam Cesare.

After barely making it out of the Kettle Springs cornfields alive, Quinn's first year away at college should be safe and easy. All she wants is to be normal again.

But instead, Quinn finds that her past won't leave her alone when she becomes the focus of online conspiracy theories that claim the Kettle Springs Massacre never happened. It's a deranged but relentless fantasy, and there's nothing Quinn can do to get people to hear the truth--not even on her own campus or in her own dorm room.

So when a murderous clown attacks Quinn at a frat party while another goes after her father in Kettle Springs at the same time, Quinn realizes that the facts alone are never going to save her. Her only option is to go back into the cornfields, back where the nightmare began, to set the record straight the only way she knows how. Because when the truth gets lost in the lies, that's when people start to die.

Clown in a Cornfield was 2020's Bram Stoker Award Winner for Superior Achievement in a Young Adult Novel. Clown in a Cornfield 2: Frendo Lives is perfectly set to attract old and new fans to the series.
