Log in and lose your mind! One year ago, four friends escaped the unrelenting terror of the video game called Nightmare Cemetery. After spending endless hours locked into the innovative Dreamwave—the first gaming console played entirely while you sleep—in order to save one of their own from the game’s all-too-real consequences, they survived . . . barely. But after their harrowing rescue, they’ve decided they’ve had enough of Nightmare Cemetery and its enigmatic final boss, the King of Sleep. That is, until the newest DLC, The Blighted Sprawl, suddenly appears online with a promise to reveal the truth of what actually lurks at the heart of Nightmare Cemetery's digital darkness . . . and why its effects are now bleeding out into the real world in an array of bizarre and disturbing new ways. From writer Zac Thompson (Into the Unbeing) and illustrator Daniel Irizarri (Judge Dread, XINO) comes the next chilling chapter of cybernetic horror with Cemetery Kids Run Rabid.

A decade ago, Daniel Noah—writer, producer, director, and co-founder of SpectreVision, the acclaimed production company known for films like Panos Cosmatos's Mandy, Ana Lily Amirpour's A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, and many more—was a typical skeptic . . . until an awe-inspiring and unexplainable encounter at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado, (the haunted hotel that inspired The Shining) left him questioning the verifiable existence of paranormal phenomenon. In the ensuing years, Noah has documented and logged hundreds of otherworldly encounters spanning the super-spectrum of “high strangeness” that connects sightings of objects in the sky to haunted places and other perplexing manifestations that extend like fingers from a hidden hand. Now, in the pages of HIGH STRANGENESS, Noah leads an otherworldly cast of premier comics talents—including acclaimed writers Chris Condon (Ultimate Wolverine), Zac Thompson (Cemetery Kids Don't Die), Christopher Cantwell (Out of Alcatraz), Cecil Castellucci (EC's Cruel Universe), and Christian Ward (Batman: City of Madness), and dazzling artists Dave Chisholm (Plague House), Noah Bailey (Station Grand), Valeria Burzo (EC's Epitaphs from the Abyss), Chloé Stawski (Sapphic Pulp), and Christian Ward (The Ultimates)—across five decades of uncanny encounters at the dimly lit borderlands of human experience . . . that interlock to reveal an ambitious, dimension-spanning finale informed by Noah’s own real-life glimpses of nonhuman intelligence. Collecting High Strangeness #1–5, this oversized deluxe hardcover volume also includes a series of feature-length essays by podcaster and researcher Jim Perry (Euphomet) on the historical facts and documentary evidence underpinning the phenomena detailed in each chapter.
