Uncover a truth so beautiful it shatters sanity.

Jack has always been a figure of mockery and rejection, cursed with a deformed body and a life of isolation. Overlooked, unloved, and drowning in pain, his one burning dream is to possess beauty and be loved, no matter the cost.

In his darkest hour, Jack makes a dangerous deal with a mysterious, supernatural entity, offering him the physical perfection he's always craved. The deal seems simple: bring the monster to the village children, and in return, Jack will be transformed into the man of his dreams. But Jack is about to discover the true price of his Faustian bargain.

As his transformation begins, Jack's life changes in ways he never imagined. The beauty he is granted comes with a haunting price, and the more children he sacrifices, the darker his reality becomes. Soon, he is spiraling into madness, wondering if the love he sought was worth the torment.

But something more horrifying than he ever anticipated begins to take shape. Something that will demand more than just his victims—it will demand his very soul.

Will Jack survive the consequences of his deal, or will the monster he summoned take everything he's ever desired?

The Price of Madness is a chilling novella of psychological terror and existential dread, perfect for fans of H.P. Lovecraft, John Langan, and those who dare to glimpse the true face of cosmic horror.
