The World is Full of Secrets

A golden-aged woman tells a harrowing tale from her bygone past of five teenage girls who met in an empty suburban house and engaged in a dreadful story-telling competition to pass the time, each yarn delving deeper into the horrors of the world lying in wait right outside their door. Drawing from the Southern Gothic tradition, steeped in dark romanticism, and rendered deeply unsettling through an incisive minimalist approach lacking monsters or gore, The World is Full of Secrets stands as a testament to the power of language and imagination to shake us to our core.
