In the remote ridges of Appalachia, Halloween is more than costumes and candy-it is a night when old stories wake. For generations, folks in Willow Hollow have whispered of the Lantern Face, a creature born of firelight and shadow, bound to the toll of a forgotten bell. Some call it a warning. Others, a curse.
When the thirteenth toll shakes the Hollow, three unlikely guardians-Lila Mae, Ezra, and Beulah-must reckon with the legend face to face. Armed with an ancient book, a lantern of ghostly fire, and the first carved pumpkin, they stand against a terror that will not rest.
Steeped in mountain folklore and woven with the eerie beauty of Appalachia, The Lantern Face of Appalachia is a haunting tale of tradition, survival, and the thin line between light and darkness
