Through the Woods, by Emily Carroll

Genre: Fiction | Horror | Graphic Novel
Themes: Ghosts, Haunted woods, Murder

A delicious trip through visual and lyrical craft. Carroll chills not only with words, but also with texture and color: violent splashes of blood-red across the page, eyes obscured by haunting shadow, and the ever-present woods, black and menacing. Carrolls dark tales are full of twist and intrigue, and just short enough to freeze the breath in your lungs until the last word.

Favorite quotes:

“It came from the woods (most strange things do).”

“Lest they realize there was something alive within the walls…that I wasn’t something dead after all.”

“The sort that crawled into you and made a home there.”
