The Curse of Brighton Burgoo

By Isaac Sandidge

Every town has its secrets. Brighton's just woke up. For over a century, the quiet Illinois town of Brighton has celebrated its famous Betsey Ann Picnic-a festival steeped in tradition, laughter, and the legendary Brighton Burgoo stew. But when food blogger Selena Carter arrives to cover the quirky event, she discovers something far darker simmering beneath the surface. An ancient bell tolls for the first time in a hundred years. Shadows stir in the woods. And when blood stains the festival grounds, Selena is thrust into a nightmare of folklore come to life-a monstrous predator born of fire, fury, and a curse no one truly buried. As chaos consumes Brighton, Selena and a haunted local historian must unravel the town's grisly past before the beast claims its final feast. Because in Brighton, the stew isn't the only thing that kills. The Curse of Brighton Burgoo is a chilling blend of small-town charm and bone-deep terror-a feast for fans of folk horror, urban legends, and stories that linger long after the last page.
