    Something is lurking in the underbelly of Knollwood Pines, waiting to be summoned...

    When a life-threatening accident renders sixteen-year-old Ronnie Hendrix comatose, he dreams of his hometown in flames and a giant axe at the center of it. After he wakes up in the hospital, Ronnie, sick and tired of being bullied, begins writing in a notebook, detailing the ritualistic deaths of those responsible for his accident. In the notebook, their sacrifices lead to the ceremonial summoning of a demon large enough to wield the weapon from his dream. Ronnie finds his revenge on the page, never intending to hurt the bullies himself. But soon after he returns to school, the notebook is stolen by a masked cult believing it to be a blueprint to summon a demon.

    As the cult begins executing the rituals, Ronnie enlists the help of his punk rocker best friend, a jock, and a powerful young witch to put an end to their reign of terror.

    Add to your TBR on GoodReads

    Professor Douglas Primm is no fan of horror fiction.

    Once a well-respected novelist, Primm is called in to teach a horror writing class at Bloodworth College in Room 301, a lecture hall rumored to be cursed. His only responsibility for the next week is to read aloud the works submitted by his students for the

    A Twisted Take on "Horror Genre Tropes".


    As Professor Primm reads these tales aloud, they become increasingly unhinged, as does his grip on reality, causing him to question whether he too may be succumbing to the dark hold of Room 301.

    In this anthology, the authors are the students, and you, the reader, experience Primm's slow descent into madness as he inadvertently unleashes unspeakable horrors. Giant insects, summer camp stalkers, cursed VHS tapes, sentient cars, backwoods terror, killer storms, home Invaders, and more await you in Cursed Room 301.
