What you need to know before your trail
Horrorstor -a clever title in Swedish and pictured to look like a certain catalogue from a certain Swedish furniture store…
The Orsk furniture superstore in Cleveland, Ohio might sound nicer and different but there is definitely something funny going on. In the mornings as the staff arrive, there are signs of broken furniture, shattered glass and beds which have been vandalised and ruined. The staff are sure it’s an inside job so they decide to stake out the store over night to see what happens but they are not prepare for the real horror ‘in store!’
Locations
ResetTravel Guide
All of the locations and the furniture store itself are fictional but there are a few places to inspire you in the booktrail. Once you’ve read this you’l be pleased it’s not real anyway.
Some people would say that a visit to a furniture store or any store is a nightmare in itself so imagine the poor staff who are terrorised by what is going on in their shop! They see no other solution as to solving the mystery of the destroyed furniture and the vandalism than to have a stake out over night to see if they can find the culprit and unravel the mystery. It’s a disturbing thought that someone is coming in and destroying things in this way, invading their space and workspace.
A ghost story is usually set in an old house, an abandoned place or even in the middle of the woods, but you may never go shopping again!
The cover of the book, the title and the overall feel really does dismantle a popular story technique, then reassemble it in the most unique setting!
