Andry (Crush Depth, Morning Star) and modern horror virtuoso Maan House (Mine is a Long Lonesome Grave) comes a chilling tale of secrets buried deep beneath the surf of the idyllic California coast. . .
Atop a rocky cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean sits the Mission at Arbues Point, a 400-year-old Spanish mission made infamous as one of California's oldest and most haunted historical sites. But beneath its crumbling, tourist-trap facade, a reclusive nun has spent decades within the Mission's walls, honing her prayers and practice in pursuit of a secret long-buried beneath the majesty of the chapel, and under the dark waves of the tidal estuary below. When marine archaeologist Maris Cristobal accepts the nun's offer to begun excavating a fabled shipwreck lying in wait beneath the Mission's turbulent waters, she'll soon discover that the sins of past and present are about to wash together into a harrowing surge of a vengeance that can no longer be contained . . .

For five friends, being trapped in an infinite loop of murder on Prom Night '97 was living hell. They're about to find out that being an adult in 2026 is much, much worse.
High school seniors J.T., Ryder, and Brandy have been catapulted through time into their adult bodies. Physically, they're now elder millennials with jobs and families. Psychologically, they're damaged teenagers with disposable income who are about to discover the consequences of making poor life choices. Even worse, not everyone thinks their new circumstances are an improvement over being ritualistically murdered every 24 hours. Does their never-ending prom night massacre hold the key to finding out how and why they were chosen to live out this supernatural torment?
From GLAAD Award–nominated writer Jude Ellison S. Doyle (Maw, Be Not Afraid) and Eisner Award–nominated artist Caitlin Yarsky (EC's Cruel Universe), Scream meets Freaky Friday in the next chapter of the smirkingly clever, '90s-obsessed, blood-drenched horror melée that will keep you guessing until the very last stab wound!
