Enter the Bizarre Bazaar, a phantasmagorical graphic novel series sure to enchant or entrap its curious customers! In this spine-tingling mystery, there's evil lurking in the shadows just outside the Buford family farm!

Lucy and Frida Buford have never stepped foot outside their family farm in the Carolina Inner Banks. It's the dead of July, and in the midst of yet another boring summer making jam for the family business, the girls are clamouring to be taken to the elusive town they've never been allowed to visit. Their father has always said that the outside world is a dangerous place, but danger is closer to home than they even know.

There's something in the nearby woods uprooting trees, scaring fish from the water, and scratching at Lucy's window in the middle of the night. Lucy can't shake the feeling that there's a monster out and about β€” one with two pointy fangs who only comes out at night.

It's up to these two sisters to discover what this monster wants. But the further they stray from home, the weirder things become. What's really going on beyond the Buford family farm?

Uncover the bizarre (and more!) in this sinister graphic novel series sure to bring chills and thrills!
