In the chilling second book in the New York Times bestselling Asylum series, three teens must return to the asylum that still haunts their dreams to end the nightmare once and for all. With the page-turning suspense and horror that made Asylum such a standout, and featuring found photographs from real vintage carnivals, Sanctum is a mind-bending reading experience that's perfect for fans of the smash hit Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.
Dan, Abby, and Jordan remain traumatized by the summer they shared in the Brookline asylum. Much as they'd love to move on, many questions remain, and someone is determined to keep the terror alive, sending the teens photos of an old-timey carnival, with no note and no name. Forsaking their plan never to go back, the teens return to New Hampshire College under the guise of a weekend for prospective students, and there they realize that the carnival from the photos is not only real, it's here on campus, apparently for the first time in many years.
Sneaking away from sample classes and college parties, Dan and his friends lead a tour of their own--one through the abandoned houses and hidden places of a surrounding town. Camford is hiding a terrible past, and the truth behind Dan's connection to the asylum's evil warden is more terrifying than Dan ever imagined.
Don't miss Madeleine Roux's all-new gothic horror novel, House of Furies.
- Haunted Asylum: Dan, Abby, and Jordan survived Brookline once. But returning to the scene of the crime reveals that the asylum's influence runs deeper than they ever feared.
- Secret Society: A mysterious group is determined to keep the past buried. As the teens dig deeper, they realize they aren't just being watched--they're being hunted.
- Found Photographs: Featuring chilling, real vintage photographs that pull you deeper into the story's atmospheric and mind-bending paranormal mystery.
- Mind-Bending Suspense: The truth about Dan's connection to the asylum's evil warden is a puzzle he has to solve, but every piece he finds only puts him and his friends in more danger.
