Synopsis
The small town of Arkham awakes
to find a traveling carnival outside its borders. Lilith's Carnival
seems a simple diversion. Or is it–for those special enough
to receive a red ticket? It's good for any show, but of course, it's
their choice to use it–it's always their choice.
Sheriff Jim McNee finds it odd
a carnival would appear overnight. The owner, a tall, black haired,
beauty, explains that in the darkness they simply took a wrong road
and, since she loves playing to small towns, decided to setup. However,
the disappearance of several townspeople and the brutal death of one
teenaged boy soon cast a dark cloud over the carnival.
Johnny Solom, a man on the run,
convicted for the disappearance and assumed murder of his girlfriend,
followed the trail back to Lilith's Carnival, the last place he saw her
alive. Johnny doesn't know of the dark evil that awaits
him–an evil that could consume him–an evil that
knows who he is.
These men, destined to
meet–one man running from the law, the other is the
law–both have one thing in common: discovering the secret of
the Dark Carnival.
"...a mesmerizing storyline. ...a magnificent story
that is brimming with plot, characters and action. Dark Carnival is a
delicious tale of terror and the unnatural. It is a tale filled with
evil, innocence and the supernatural."
