A tornado swept her away… But the real nightmare begins when she lands. In this chilling reimagining of the classic tale, twelve-year-old Dorothy Gale finds herself not in a land of wonder—but a broken world of shadows, blood-soaked bricks, and things that whisper in the dark. Her only guide is the silver shimmer of cursed shoes and a loyal dog who won’t leave her side. As she journeys across a twisted Oz, she encounters monstrous versions of old friends: a scarecrow with mushrooms growing from his stitched skull, a tin man leaking black ichor from a door in his chest, and a lion with blood on his fangs and an iron pendant that pulses with power. The Emerald City isn’t salvation—it’s a trap. And the Wizard? He’s not what he seems. None of them are.
