Bellevue Grove is hours away from its first-ever Halloween event and chief of security Andrew Calloway is already afraid it'll be the last. The historic amusement park has been teetering for years now. Why else would management hire "Careless Calloway," a man nationally famous for being a security risk? Same reason they tried to cut his five guards down to two. On paper, Bellevue can't afford "Night of a Million Maniacs." In practice, it can't afford anything less.

He fought for every possible safety measure. A fleet of metal detectors. Background checks on all 200 of the actors eager to terrorize. Anything to protect the 10,000 guests paying for a brush with make-believe death and quiet the anxious ache in his gut telling him something would go wrong.

Andrew Calloway knows he's in for the longest night of his life.

But he has no idea it's just getting started when he finds a fresh corpse among the fakes.
