If it’s not demon birds and spiders it’s something else haunting Hawthorne Hollow these days. Scout Randall, Michigan’s favorite pixie apex, is ready for a break. Then the unthinkable happens.

It starts small during a job in the woods. The attacking force reminds Scout of something she can’t quite put her finger on. When she does identify where she knows the creatures from, she’s thrown. She saw them in a movie.

She manages to push the idea from her mind. Well, mostly. Movies can’t come to life after all.

Then it happens again.
And again.
A strange hotel shows up on the highway with an odd man who has a very overbearing mother running it.

The peeping Tom ghost who hangs close to her house sees a hockey mask-wearing psycho wandering around the woods.

Mama Moon is invited—more like forced—to eat dinner with a very strange family from Texas.

Tableaus are popping up at every turn. They’re very similar to things Scout has seen in the movies, but also different.

She’s amused. Nothing about the scenario frightens her. In fact, she’s a little excited.

Then things start getting more and more dangerous.

Someone very big and very powerful has come to Hawthorne Hollow. This individual has cast a spell to delight Scout. Is it a friend? Is it a foe? Will Scout manage to overcome her movie heroes, or were they created to distract her?

There’s a big fight on the horizon. First, Scout has to get through a horror maze of epic proportions. She’s trapped in a literal nightmare. She just might not make it out alive.

Was that the plan all along?
