Publisher's Summary
"An ominously slow burn...Keep the lights on for this one."—A PEOPLE MUST-READ FOR SUMMER
"Very creepy...you've been warned."—R.L. STINE
"Gripping.”—ANA REYES
On a creepy island where everyone has a strange obsession with the year 1994, a newcomer arrives, hoping to learn the truth about her son’s death—but finds herself pulled deeper and deeper into the bizarrely insular community and their complicated rules…
Clifford Island. When Willow Stone finds these words written on the floor of her deceased son’s bedroom, she’s perplexed. She’s never heard of it before, but soon learns it’s a tiny island off Wisconsin’s Door County peninsula, 200 miles from Willow’s home. Why would her son write this on his floor? Determined to find answers, Willow sets out for the island.
After a few days on Clifford, Willow realizes: This place is not normal. Everyone seems to be stuck in a particular day in 1994: They wear outdated clothing, avoid modern technology, and, perhaps most mystifyingly, watch the OJ Simpson car chase every evening. When she asks questions, people are evasive, but she learns one thing: Close your curtains at night.
High schooler Lily Becker has lived on Clifford her entire life, and she is sick of the island’s twisted mythology and adhering to the rules. She’s been to the mainland, and everyone is normal there, so why is Clifford so weird? Lily is determined to prove that the islanders’ beliefs are a sham. But are they?
Five weeks after Willow arrives on the island, she disappears. Willow’s brother, Harper, comes to Clifford searching for his sister, and when he learns the truth—that this island is far more sinister than anyone could have imagined—he is determined to blow the whole thing open.
If he can get out alive....

Story
This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams. Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time.

Story
It’s the house of their dreams. Former marine Harry and his wife, Sasha, have packed up their life and their golden retriever, Dash, and fled the corporate rat race to live off the land in rural Idaho. Their breathtaking new home sits on more than forty acres of meadow, aspen trees, and pine forest in the Teton Valley. Even if their friends and family think it’s a strange choice for an up-and-coming pair of urban professionals, Harry and Sasha couldn’t be happier about the future they’re building, all by their lonesome.

Story
Ana and Reid needed a lucky break. The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralyzed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, with resentment for her baby. That's about to change with the words any New Yorker would love to hear—affordable housing lottery. They've won an apartment in the Deptford, one of Manhattan's most revered buildings. Reid dismisses disturbing events and Ana’s deep unease and paranoia as the price of living in New York—people are odd—but he can't explain the needle-like bite marks on the baby.

What the critics say
"[A] breathtaking debut thriller... Juliano draws memorable characters and places them in an indelible setting, using artful prose and judicious dashes of dark humor to leave a major impression. It’s a scary-good debut." —Publisher's Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)
"Very creepy. Dreadfully creepy. Chillingly creepy. Horrifically creepy. You've been warned." —R.L. Stine, New York Times bestselling author of Goosebumps and Fear Street
“Dead Eleven brought me right back to the nineties with its VHS tapes, Pogs and Trapper Keepers, balancing nostalgia and terror to explore the dangers of living in the past. If you liked Netflix's Stranger Things and Dark, don't miss Jimmy Juliano's gripping horror debut.” —Ana Reyes, New York Times bestselling author of The House in the Pines

More creepy than horror - and that is fine with me
It was a slow start but halfway through the creepiness ramped up. It’s not a slasher horror type story which I prefer. The mixed media - letters, tape recoding transcripts, and texts - were cool like hearing g a true crime podcast. I suggest listening with a physical copy to fully enjoy this style of storytelling.

If you like horror, skip this made for tv re-run
Mash together The Village Midnight Mass, and IT, sprinkle in a dash of Pet Semetary, half-bake it and fill in cracks with The Cabin in the Woods. If you then package it as a Hunt-a-Killer 6-part game package and make it sound like it was written by a 16-year-old, voilà! You get this hackneyed, ponderous, 30-chapter-too-long… thing. It is like a crummy, home-made Father’s Day dog’s breakfast for Stephen King.
Not a bad story, per se, just one that has already been told dozens of times, better.
Like, I like the idea (obviously— that’s how I recognized all the literary Frankensteining), and the monster is kinda neat (with a cool name), but it is just so… bleh. Like, just kinda… dumb. It takes forever to get anywhere good, repeats itself like a Rocket Robin Hood episode… if one more person’s imagination “runs away with them,” I swear ta god…
I will admit I should have known— the lame rock music opener was the first warning, and I REALLY should have just shut it down after the prologue where the author makes all his excuses for why the writing is so garbage. Like is it a first person POV or a Dracula-like “found footage” novel or a 3rd person omnipotent POV? Pick a lane, man! If you choose all of them, it just fails.
Only because I need closure did I finish— otherwise, I wouldn’t have. God knows I didn’t care about any of the characters. I ended up full- on skipping chunks of chapters and then handfuls of whole chapters at a time to just get it over with.
The performance(s) are… very menh. Sometimes the narrator seems to forget which voice he is supposed to be doing and so you get weird “bleed” from narration to speech to character change, which is annoying.
I rolled my eyes way too many times to find this book anything beyond annoying and forgettable.
If you have seen/read any of the things I mentioned, save yourself the hours it’ll take to stomp all over them and skip this rip-off.

disappointing
The author seems to have written himself into a corner and just gave up. The open ending felt less deep and more lazy. The central problem of the story never felt unsolvable, so when it WAS, it was a let down.
I think my problem was, the concept seemed so interesting and so mysterious, but it ended up being really kind of boring.
Awesome cover, though.
