8vi, br, ed , 384pp. A terrifying tale of supernatural horror set in a cursed Louisiana bayou, from the minds of legendary director George Romero and bestselling author Daniel Kraus. In 2019, while sifting through University of Pittsburgh Libraryís Systemís George A. Romero Archival Collection, novelist Daniel Kraus turned up a surprise: a half-finished novel called Pay the Piper, a project few had ever heard of. In the years since, Kraus has worked with Romeroís estate to bring this unfinished masterwork to light. Alligator Point, Louisiana, population 141: Young RenÈe Pontiac has heard stories of ìthe Piperî-a murderous swamp entity haunting the bayou-her entire life. But now the legend feels horrifically real: children are being taken and gruesomely slain. To resist, Pontiac and the townís desperate denizens will need to acknowledge the sins of their ancestors-the infamous slave traders, the Pirates Lafitte. If they donít . . . itís time to pay the piper.
