Queer identity and supernatural horror collide

In Widow’s Creek, Barnaby Jones’s coming-out as nonbinary is followed by a friend’s abduction and the arrival of a crypt connected to multiple realms. A portal brings five undead “Queens of the Crypt” into the story, joining Barnaby in confronting the threat to the town. The graphic novel combines a small-town mystery with supernatural horror, while placing Barnaby’s self-discovery alongside its monster-filled conflict. Its central mix is explicit in the premise: horror, queerness, and figuring out who you want to be.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in horror graphic novels.
  • Readers seeking stories featuring a nonbinary protagonist and queer themes.
  • Fans of supernatural mysteries involving monsters, crypts, and a small-town setting.

Book overview

E. M. Carroll meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer with a dash of The Rocky Horror Picture Show in this debut young adult graphic novel that is a celebration of horror, queerness, and figuring out who you want to be.

*Features bright neon purple sprayed edges that complement Dom&Ink's stunning cover art!*


There is a crypt that sits in the darkness... A crypt that exists across multiple realms, that houses your worst fears... And it's coming to Widow's Creek...

When seventeen-year-old Barnaby Jones comes out to their parents as nonbinary, they expect that to be the toughest part of their day. But it turns out the toughest part might actually be when their best friend, Fi, is kidnapped by a faceless killer who's been abducting teens all across the small town of Widow's Creek. Or is it when Barnaby unwittingly summons the undead and fabulous Queens of the Crypt through a portal in their bedroom closet?

Either way, the Queens--the Phantom, the Countess, Lady Invisible, the Creature, and the Bogeywoman--are here to help. As the horrors creep closer, can Barnaby work together with the scream queens to save Widow's Creek from destruction and unmask the Faceless Frightener?
