These woods are dark and full of monsters…
In 1991, hell was unleashed upon Saint Christopher’s Summer Camp for Kids. The killers left behind piles of bodies and rivers of blood. Some say a family of inbred cannibals was responsible. A masked psychopath with a butcher's knife is another popular theory. Some still believe a camp counselor lost his mind and went crazy on everyone with an axe. But there’s also the mysterious, derelict factory that sits nearby, atop Kill Hill. A place where urban legends are manufactured, the grotesque and bizarre.
Twenty-five years later, the factory on Kill Hill is still said to be operational, but no one can get near it. It’s safely guarded along with the secrets within. But there are a few loose strings and hitman Frank Harmon has been sent to tie them up. His kill list is short, but the night is long and full of unspeakable horrors. With the help of a few college students on an impromptu camping adventure, Frank must contain the mess at Kill Hill before it spreads to the neighboring towns. Before it infects the entire country. Before it invades the entire world.
From the fantastical, high-octane mind of Tim Meyer, author of Sharkwater Beach and In the House of Mirrors, comes his most frightening tale yet! Summer camp this year is at your own risk.

The Haunted Reading Room's Review:
Kill Hill Carnage by Tim Meyer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Review: KILL HILL CARNAGE by Tim Meyer
KILL HILL CARNAGE is straight out horror extreme, a homage to 80's-90's slasher splatterpunk, AND to the wonderful Grade-B horror films of the 1950's, which often featured "Science Gone Wrong." There's plenty of the latter in this novel, as human greed and cupidity reign, regardless of the environment or quality of human life. In a chemical plant in New England, owned by a foreign corporation and strongly suspected of dumping toxic waste in the adjacent river (think Love Canal), secret experiments have continued since the plant's official closure in 1991, following a brutal massacre at a nearby Christian youth camp. Security at the plant is akin to that in a Third-World dictatorship, but that doesn't halt the excursions of products of the covert experimentation occurring in the closed chemical plant (think Mengele).
Genetic mutations and lots of gore are not the only themes in this novel. Author Tim Meyer has a keen vision for character and a deep understanding of his people. If you love splatterpunk, you can't go wrong here.
