Drawing on the creepiest elements of the very best survival and folk horror, this atmospheric queer YA cult thriller, full of mystery and secrets, is perfect for fans of Don’t Let the Forest In, House of Hollow, Wilder Girls and Midsommar.

When Cassie Davis returns to her hometown in upstate New York, she’s eager to mask her new autism diagnosis from her old friends. The group take a backpacking trip together to Hollow Ridge to celebrate her homecoming, but after the first night, Cassie wakes to an abandoned campsite – her friends all gone.

With severe weather approaching, and nearing sensory overload, Cassie meets a boy named Kaleb, who leads her to safety, to a place he calls The Roost – an off-the-grid compound lived in by a group of artists and outcasts. There, with Kaleb, Cassie begins to feel, for the first time in her life, that she can truly be herself.

But as the days pass, strange things start happening. Crows surround them, there are odd noises… But are the dangers in the eerie forest that surrounds them, or inside the Roost itself?
