Chasing the Boogeyman

Product Information

It's a harrowing tale, one that has people wondering with various supposed sightings if this boogeyman is truly something not of this earth. Sprinkled throughout, as with most true crime books, are photographs of the different players and locations. I felt the vibes of I'll Be Gone in the Dark on a focused scale, moving inside the dome of a one small town.

He combines horror fiction, a small-town mystery, with true crime that uniquely defies any tired, overused tropes around murdered girls and small towns. RICHARD CHIZMAR is the co-author (with Stephen King) of the New York Times bestsellers Gwendy's Button Box and Gwendy's Final Task , and the author of the solo work Gwendy's Magic Feather . We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. Law enforcement, as well as members of the FBI, are certain that the killer is a living, breathing madman—and he’s playing games with them.

Its unique writing style, realistic chapters reminds you of documentary scripts, unconventional conclusion are truly haunting your soul and giving you nightmares!

He takes up the gauntlet and of course becomes involved with the murders and its abhorrent mutilations while the town gossips and lives in fear.This brilliant work of metafiction crafts a not-so-true crime story that feels ripe for a Netflix series…. His short fiction has appeared in dozens of publications, including Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine and The Year’s 25 Finest Crime and Mystery Stories. I was really engaged with the first half, and I was especially enjoying the supernatural elements of the book, but then I feel like it just never went anywhere? I originally wanted to read this book because of the fact that Chizmar has co-written a book with the legendary Stephen King and even King himself said this was “genuinely chilling” and that’s all I needed to know.
