They said the fire took everything.
But the fire didn't kill them all.
A year ago, a blaze tore through Hollow Ridge's beloved Pumpkin Festival, killing three local teens and leaving the town in pieces. The survivors-once inseparable-swore to never speak of that night again.
Now, as the next Pumpkin Festival approaches, Riley Carter returns home for the first time since the tragedy. But Hollow Ridge isn't the same. The smiles are hollow, the streets too quiet... and someone wearing porcelain masks of the dead has started to hunt again.
When the killings begin, Riley and her old friends are forced to face what really happened that night. Because the fire wasn't an accident-
and the person responsible isn't finished.
