The Velvet Sky

When her husband, Warren, steals their son, Andrew, away in the middle of the night, her already fragile grip on reality starts to weaken as she sets off after them on a nightmarish phantasmagoria through an urban dreamscape

Chronicling Bethany's desperate flight, The Velvet Sky is a dark fairytale for grown-ups, about the stories and lies adults tell children to keep them safe from the things that lurk in the dark

"Aguirre-Sacasa blends childhood fantasies with adult nightmares into a dark and surreal adventure laced with just enough honesty that it's absolutely, terrifically terrifying ... There's a real lesson buried beneath the potential for blood and gore, subtly reminding us of our obligation to protect children from their beastly predators" ~ Metroweekly

"Enter the world of Aguirre-Sacasa's creepy, mesmeric play - if you dare. If you are prone to bad dreams, The Velvet Sky may give you a sleepless night or two" ~ Washington Times
