About this listen

Once in a lifetime

Three low-income families have been given a handsome retainer to join Geraldine Borden for a day at her cliffside estate. All the parents must do to collect the rest of their money is allow their children to test out the revolutionary playground equipment Geraldine has been working on for decades. But there’s a reason the structures in the bowels of her gothic castle have taken so long to develop—they were never meant to see the light of day.

When a band of dysfunctional children is suddenly thrust into a diabolical realm of violence, they must grow up instantly to have a chance at survival. Will they find a way to put their differences aside, or be swallowed up by the insidious architecture all around them?

"With Playground, Aron Beauregard transcends himself, delivering a genuinely chilling, uncomfortable novel that will make even the most jaded horror fan squirm. A harrowing, relentless read that left me breathless." (Brian Keene)

What I love so much about Aron's works is that they combine the gruesome and depraved with genuinely great writing skills, engaging characters and the ability to tell interesting stories. This was a great listen with excellent narration.

As an intense horror lover stemming from movies to graphic novels this book truly is horrific in the best kind of way
From the disturbingly thorough descriptions to the writings of the characters and the voice who reads the story to you . You become encapsulated in the tale that gives Stephen king a run for his money . A playground you’d think we’re saw traps for the worst of humanity being forced upon mostly innocent youth and a henchman who’s trauma bond to his owner/mother who breaks free from the brainwashing it’s truly a story only for those with a strong stomach and not new to the horror world
I look forward to listening to more from this writer and hope for a sequel to this one covering the survivors and what happens to the now abandoned hell house

A grotesque horror

Playground is a standout in the Splatterpunk genre. AB is an excellent writer that caters to fans of extreme literature. These books are not for the uninitiated. They are not ‘vanilla’ horror. However if you are a fan of the extreme genre then this is a very good example with great narration also.
