Sadie and Aiden are high school students who are best friends. When they are dared to spend the night in a supposedly haunted cemetery by a wealthy friend of theirs, to the tune of one thousand dollars, they agree to the challenge, thinking it’s easy money. Little do they know what lies in store for them in the Shadow Valley Cemetery, because on that particular night, a group of clowns are up to something in the cemetery. Something sinister. Something wicked.
Something that Sadie and Aiden get into trouble for after they discover the cultish ceremony. Now they have to try to run for their lives!
I don’t know how old Sadie and Aiden are, only that they are high school students, but it seems like they have a good, strong friendship. They have been friends for forever and they treat each other like brother and sister. This strong friendship will help them as they try to find out the truth behind what they saw that night at the cemetery, as well as fight whatever it is they are up against.
This story has a lot of surprises. These surprises kept me reading to find out more and to see if anybody else discovered the dark secrets of Sadie and Aiden’s ancestors. I loved how they both did research to find out why there was a group of clowns doing some kind of weird ritual in the cemetery. Both of them worked to get to the bottom of things and they both act bravely when they come up against clowns trying to kill them. They make a great team.
The ending of the story was very satisfying. Everything is pretty much explained and wrapped up at the end. I liked how Sadie and Aiden’s friendship remains strong no matter what happens in the story. I also liked how their relationships with their families grows stronger after everything the two teenagers went through.
The Horror of Shadow Valley is a suspenseful, frightening tale of a secret cult of clowns and horrifying family secrets. This YA horror novella is a must-read for fans of horror, as well as anyone who enjoys reading stories about freakish clowns committing terrifying crimes.
Five stars
