A terrifying tale of supernatural horror set in a cursed Louisiana bayou, from the minds of legendary director George Romero and bestselling author Daniel Kraus.

In 2019, while sifting through University of Pittsburgh Library's System's George A. Romero Archival Collection, novelist Daniel Kraus turned up a surprise: a half-finished novel called Pay the Piper, a project few had ever heard of. In the years since, Kraus has worked with Romero's estate to bring this unfinished masterwork to light.

Alligator Point, Louisiana, population 141: Young Renee Pontiac has heard stories of 'the Piper'

a murderous swamp entity haunting the bayou

her entire life. But now the legend feels horrifically real: children are being taken and gruesomely slain. To resist, Pontiac and the town's desperate denizens will need to acknowledge the sins of their ancestors

the infamous slave traders, the Pirates Lafitte. If they don't...it's time to pay the piper.

'A captivating triumph for horror fans.'
