The Harrowed Circus by ItsLoz96

The moon is rising, the show is about to begin... but not everyone will make it out alive. The Lunar Circus isn't a place for children, or anyone faint of heart. There are no tickets, and it only appears under the light of the full moon. This is no ordinary show-it's a spectacle where humans come to witness creatures from fairy tales and nightmares: a bearded mermaid, a vampire contortionist, a werewolf cannonball, and more marvels hiding in the shadows. But as the audience gathers, people begin to vanish. Harrow, the fae ringmaster, is struggling to keep his cursed performers under control, and the danger long whispered about threatens to spill out from behind the curtains. The arrival of a new star, Seraphina, only makes things worse. As she dazzles under the spotlight, suspicion grows. Harrow can't deny his fascination with her-but he can't ignore the fact that she might be the key to the disappearances.
