Five friends. Four houses. One seemingly perfect life… But no one who discovers the truth will leave it alive.

IDW Publishing’s hit horror imprint IDW Dark presents readers with an all-new nightmare on October 14: You’ll Never Leave This Place Alive, wickedly crafted by the Eisner-nominated co-writers Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing and rising horror artist Heather Vaughan.

Phoebe Joplin has never questioned the world her parents built: a secluded community where she and her friends were raised to be smarter, stronger, and better than anyone else. No distractions. No dangers. No secrets. Until the night of their graduation…

When one of them dies under impossible circumstances, Phee starts to pull at the edges of her perfect life — and finds something far more terrifying than she ever imagined. Because this place isn’t a sanctuary. It’s a cage. And no one who finds out survives.

The paranoia-laced, socially conscious horror mystery will leave readers questioning reality… and reveal this crafted world is more of a nightmare than the idealistic dream its residents were expecting.
