Was it revulsion I felt? Perhaps some sort of sick fascination? No, not that. But something compelled me to follow. . .

Rain-drenched and chilled to the bone, she arrives at the Countess' castle. Like many before her - none of whom have returned - she's determined to

snuff out the horrors within. But she could never be prepared for what hides within its turrets; what unfurls under its fluttering flags...

Emily Carroll's hair-raising tale, charged with eroticism, doesn't just make your skin crawl - it crawls underneath it.

Reviews for When I Arrived at the Castle

'Drawn solely in black, white and deepest, dankest red, Castle is dipped inthe old magic of fables and the contradictory, shifting logic of dreams.',Seamas O'Reilly, The Irish Times 'Clever, dirty and incredibly scary, it's an announcement of vaulting ambition-and a welcome one.', Sam Thielman, Guardian, 'The best comics of thedecade' (2019)
