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)

Note to readers: this is not a book for sensitive wee petals. This is extreme Gore, horror fiction. I discovered "The Slob" and the sequel, "Son of a slob" written buy this author, after which I had to find more of his work. This book was quite a bit milder, if you can believe it, than "the slob", but I found I really enjoyed it. The narration was brilliant. Coincidentally, the same narrator as for the other two books I have mentioned. I did like that not only did this tail have the expected extreme violence and shock factor, but it also had a tail of redemption for a major character and that made it for me.

Aron Beauregard is definitely my latest favourite "sick puppy author".

I think the best part about the TIKTOK hype, is it's actually so much worse than anyone conveys. If you're a horror fan, searching for discomfort and horror look no further.

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.
