About this ebook

What was meant to be a joyful beach trip turns into a nightmare when two families find themselves stranded in a remote forest near Batangas after a mysterious roadside accident. With no signal, no help in sight, and nightfall closing in, they're forced to accept the hospitality of seemingly kind strangers in a secluded rural village.

But the town holds terrifying secrets-rooted in deep Visayan folklore and ancient blood rituals.

As the full moon rises, dark forces awaken. Children vanish. Animals are slaughtered. And old houses begin to whisper with the voices of the dead. At the heart of the horror is Nanay Daria-an ancient aswang matriarch whose appetite for flesh is only matched by her hold over the town.

Only a few will survive the night.

Some will change forever.

And none will ever forget what waited for them...

At the Road's Cruel End.

I hope you enjoy reading this recurring dream inspired thriller-adventure as much as I enjoyed writing it.

About the author

Abby Arce is a Filipino writer who weaves her name into every book she creates - sometimes hidden as an acronym, sometimes revealed in full. Her titles are more than words; they are pieces of her life, moments captured in story form.


A mother, wife, daughter, sister, mentor, trainer, manager, and a friend, Abby has learned to live many roles at once. She writes horror and thrillers not because she dwells in darkness, but because she understands the beauty of contrast - that joy feels brighter when you've explored the shadows.


Her readers know her not only as the storyteller who keeps them turning pages, but also as the happy, grounded Abby they meet in real life: the mom who plays with her kids, the mentor who offers guidance, the wife who chooses forgiveness, and the woman who refuses to let her passions fade.


Every book she writes is both an escape and a legacy - proof that you can work hard, love fiercely, and still chase the worlds only you can imagine.


This is Abby. And every title is her signature.
