Publisher Description:

They came for ghosts, but found something much worse…
It’s the summer after graduation, and 18-year-old Will wants one last blast with his friends before they go their separate ways for college. At the suggestion of his ghost hunter friend Cam, they sneak onto the grounds of Pleasanthood, a town abandoned after a devastating chemical spill twenty years earlier. The town is supposed to be haunted by the people who died in the disaster. But Will doesn’t believe in the paranormal, so he’s not too worried about that. His primary concern is getting somewhere with his crush, Piper, who he somehow convinced to come along.
But once they arrive, the group quickly realizes something’s not right. Stationary objects move seemingly on their own. Thick fog surrounds the town on an otherwise clear evening. And even though it’s the middle of July in south Louisiana, it’s cold enough for them to wear jackets.
And things are about to get worse. When the sun sets, something else emerges from the nearby cemetery. Corpses brought to life by the chemical spill set out to consume the living, regenerating — and getting stronger — with each kill. Now, trapped within the thick woods surrounding the plant, Will and his friends must escape the living dead…or become part of them.
