Midnight Dare

By JP Dumas

One dare. Four forgotten roads. An ancient debt that refuses to stay buried.

It's a Tuesday night in Blackwood Village, and for best friends Iain and Aiden, the local legends about the "Dead End"-a creepy, abandoned tollbooth at the crossroads-are just stories to scare primary schoolers. But when a reckless midnight dare goes wrong, the boys accidentally trigger a century-old curse.

As the clock strikes midnight, the crossroads transform, warping the world into the dark, frozen landscapes of the past. To survive, they must outrun a phantom Highwayman, navigate a treacherous, supernatural bog, and outsmart a ghostly steam train-all while racing against a countdown that threatens to turn their own shadows into permanent parts of the road.

With the village trapped in a time-loop and a stone statue of a cruel Toll Collector hunting them down, Iain and Aiden have one hour to unlock the secrets of the Blackwood Cross. If they can't balance the ledger and pay the toll, they won't just fail their history project-they'll be locked in the tollbooth forever.

Perfect for fans of classic adventure and supernatural suspense, Midnight Dare is a high-stakes race against time where the past isn't just history-it's hungry.
