In the 1980s, twelve-year-old Matthew Cooper is experiencing some strange and terrifying events at an old rental house where he and his family have recently moved. TVs and radios click on and off in the middle of the night. Odd shapes are drawn in the foggy glass of a bathroom mirror. No one can explain these things, and as their encounters become more bizarre and intense, Matthew's family slowly descends into darkness and paranoia, the psychological horror becoming more of a threat than what might be lurking behind their walls.

"Walk the Night is a stone-cold classic of Southern Horror: the horror of lost childhood, the horror of parents' voices raised and desperate in the next room, the horror of the past that lives within us all. With this haunting vision of growing up in the late 1980s, David Armand joins the ranks of southern legends like John Farris, Michael McDowell, and William Gay. Equally moving and terrifying-this book will break your heart, when it doesn't have your heart in your throat." -Kent Wascom, author of The Great State of West Florida and The New Inheritors
