Every ten years, a carnival appears in the middle of an empty field. No workers. No crowds. Just glowing lights, eerie music, and rides that seem to run themselves.

This year, Lila, Ethan, and Maya each receive a mysterious ticket with their names on it. At midnight, they step inside the carnival's gates-only to discover that leaving won't be so easy.

To escape, they must win a prize. But the games aren't ordinary, and the rides know their deepest fears. With time running out and the clock striking closer to thirteen, the friends must face riddles, traps, and a smiling figure named Mr. Harrow... who may not be human at all.

The Carnival doesn't just want players.

It wants pieces of them.

Will they make it out before dawn-or will they become souvenirs of the Midnight Carnival forever?
