Circle of Freaks (HORROR X)

Ivy Sloan has spent her life trapped in a suffocating small town, haunted by bad memories and a desperate longing for the impossible. Every year, the elusive Circle of Freaks paranormal circus descends upon Stockbridge during Devil’s Night, a forbidden spectacle that leaves its audience silent and changed. While the local girls are turning up dead, Ivy remains an outcast at her academy, yearning for an escape from her grim reality. When a mysterious ticket lands in her hands, she walks straight into the darkness, unaware that she is stepping into a world far more dangerous than the rumors suggest.

This gripping paranormal romance masterfully blends the high-stakes tension of the academy trope with the unsettling, supernatural allure of a traveling circus. As Ivy ventures behind the velvet curtain, she discovers that the horror show is not just a performance—it is a gateway to a terrifying supernatural hierarchy. Amidst the carnage and the shadows, she finds herself drawn to a man who embodies the very nightmares she once feared.
