*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.
Wilfred is a pastor with a rough past who is sent to Gideon Falls due to the previous pastor’s death. When he arrives, he meets Norton, who believes the town is evil and is obsessed with collecting proof. There is a legend of a mysterious Black Barn that appears and disappears, heralding misfortune but Wilfred is unconvinced. Until a series of mysterious murders take place and there are less and less logical explanations.
This is a time and reality bending horror that I thought Ice Cream Man was going to be. The art really drives home the fear and mystery, using shadow and panel placement effectively and the writing is really good. It ends on a cliffhanger but there is plenty here to satisfy your needs for a mind-bending horror if you’re looking for one. 4 out of 5.
