The Remaking: A Novel

Chapman, Clay McLeod

Synopsis:

This novel illustrates how powerful stories can be and how we fuel those stories through retelling. The book begins with a horrific story, based on the true story of a different “witch girl” in Pilot’s Knob, Kentucky, and shows how this single occurrence progresses from a story told around a campfire to two feature films, and is the subject for endless speculation by an ever increasing audience, growing from the residents of the town where the events took place to a worldwide audience. This is the best type of horror, where the chills and discomfort are based enough on reality to be truly unsettling, with a bit to ponder when you've finished reading.
