Delightfully spooky. After a series of unfortunate raft troubles, Wirt, Greg, Beatrice, and everyone’s favorite frog seek refuge in a quiet town filled with polite inhabitants. However, the longer they stay, the more sinister the town seems. Can they unlock its dark secrets, and if they do, will they make it out again?
A captivating adventure that perfectly captures Greg’s whimsy, Wirt’s anxiousness, and Beatrice’s snark.
Great artwork that, while different from the show, fits the characters and story well. At the back is a Cover Gallery. I absolutely adore Lowenthal’s realistic-esque covers for the series. It was cool to see the characters in that art style. And Miguel Mercado’s cover art for this volume is amazing.
An engaging adventure that delivers on the humor and creepiness of the Over the Garden Wall universe.
