4/5

I always adore queer horror and this graphic novel hit every mark I could have wanted it too.
It's set against the 'satanic panic' backdrop of 1980s America and invokes all the themes I hoped it would as we follow our cast of queer outcasts. They're the freaks, the outsiders, the scapegoats. So when the pastor's wife goes missing and is found with a pentagram carved into her, who else would be easier to blame?

The cast of characters are so empathetic, it's blatant to see how much they care for each other. They're so easy to connect with and to root for. I loved the representation of such a tight-knit group of queer friends in such a hateful time. Despite the world being against them—in fact, because of it—they're loyal to a fault and will always stick together.

I thought this was an amazing story with such beautiful illustrations. I desperately hope that it's continued because I want so much more of it.
If you like Stranger Things, this small town supernatural horror graphic novel is perfect for you!

Thank you Netgalley and Oni Press for providing me with an e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

Quick read, great graphics and good story. Easy to follow, felt there could have been more horror. Liked the alternative character choices.
