Summary
- Lights, camera, scream! Get ready for a pulse-pounding original graphic novel based on the hit video game, Bendy.
Andi has loved horror movies her entire life, so when a job opens at her local theater, she jumps at the opportunity. Now she can see as many free horror movies as she wants. But why is she the only one working at the theater? When a batch of new teen employees show up, they start to disappear almost as quickly. This has to be some sort of joke, right? And why do these old Bendy cartoons keep playing in the empty theaters? There is something dark and inky in the basement... and it's not the type of horror that Andi wants to see.
This eye-catching and chilling original graphic novel is perfect for fans of horror movies, thrillers, terrifying games, and anyone who's ever heard anything go bump in the night.
