Thirteen-year-old Joey Speight never anticipated the bone-chilling horrors awaiting him in this small river town. Forced to abandon the city due to his father's job loss, Joey's resentment festers as he's compelled to live with a Great-Grandma he never knew existed.
Joey soon finds companionship in Len and Anne, two friends with secrets as mysterious as the town they now call home. Len entertains them with tales of the Eyebiter, a local legend lurking in the park beside Joey's new residence. What begins as innocent banter soon transforms into a nightmarish reality as eerie occurrences envelop Willow Falls.
As the trio's friendship deepens, so does their awareness of the sinister force gripping the town. The Eyebiter, once dismissed as mere folklore, emerges from the shadows, casting a chilling dread over Willow Falls.
The quest for survival thrusts Joey, Len, and Anne into a terrifying pursuit of the Eyebiter. Within a lightless cavern where whispered terrors of the past echo, they confront the harrowing truth of the nightmare they sought to unveil.
With a relative he barely knows offering ominous advice, can Joey and his friends unravel the legend's shocking secrets before the Eyebiter claims them as its own or is something more sinister awaiting them?
