From the next big name in YA thrillers that fans on Book Tok have dubbed, “The CEO of plot twists” comes a classic horror story for a new generation.

Six strangers. One night. But how many survivors?


When a group of six strangers who have only ever spoken on a creepy Deddit thread decide to meet IRL, they have one plan in mind: they are going to play The Midnight Game and summon the Midnight Man.

Rules of the game are simple: Do not turn on the lights. Do not go to sleep. Do not leave the building.

And once you start the game, you must finish it—there's no other way out...

Cynthia Murphy has had a long-standing love affair with all things scary, reading Point Horrors at primary school before graduating to Stephen King in her misguided teens. Studying for a degree in Art History and Archaeology meant that she developed a thirst for anything old, beautiful and very often dead. She tries to combine this with contemporary settings in her writing to make unique and chilling modern stories. Cynthia is married to her best friend and they are ruled by a Romanian rescue dog called Loli.

Reviews

Praise for The Midnight Game:

"The Midnight Game is smart, twisted and terrifying. A single-sitting read with a wonderful ending—I loved it."—Vincent Ralph, New York Times bestselling author of Secrets Never Die

"A creepy, absorbing, plot-driven story."—Kirkus

"A simmering horror novel. Plentiful hair-raising scares."—Publishers Weekly

"Murphy effectively includes creepy tension throughout, continually making readers question everything. Fans of Adam Cesare’s Clown in a Cornfield or Kathryn Foxfield’s Tag, You’re Dead will devour this one."—School Library Journal Expand reviews
