Memorials By Richard Chizmar

In this chilling novel from the New York Times bestselling author of *Chasing the Boogeyman*, a group of college students embarks on a seemingly innocent road trip that quickly turns sinister. Set in 1983, three American Studies students set out to film a documentary on roadside memorials, hoping to explore the stories behind these poignant tributes. What begins as a lighthearted adventure—complete with late-night campfires and heartfelt conversations—takes a dark turn as they travel deeper into the Appalachian backwoods.

As they document their findings, they become increasingly aware of an unsettling symbol that appears on many of the memorials, hinting at a disturbing secret lurking beneath the surface. Paranoia mounts when they realize they may be being followed, and their vehicle is mysteriously tampered with overnight. The locals they encounter seem less than friendly, adding to the growing sense of dread.

As the students grapple with their fears, they begin to question the nature of the roadside deaths they’ve been studying. Were these fatalities mere accidents, or is there a more malevolent force at play? *Roadside Memorials* expertly weaves together elements of supernatural horror and psychological suspense, plunging readers into a nightmarish journey where friendship and survival are tested against the backdrop of a hauntingly beautiful yet treacherous landscape. As they delve deeper into the mystery, the students must confront the dark secrets of the past and the terrifying forces that threaten to consume them. 📚❤️
