A red poster that says WELCOME TO THE ELYSIAN in yellow font. In the centre there is a picture of a theatre auditorium in reds and pinks, an usher watches over the audience and the curtained stage. Also in yellow text it says "London theatre is full of decay, desperation and debauchery. London's Elysian is no exception."
Paddy & Betty fall prey to the toxic dynamic of the theatre industry. Both must face whether their artistic ambitions are worth the cost of their mouldering morals and careers.
πFaustian deal
πBisexual celebrity in crisis
πArt school wankers

A blurry portrait of a young brunette woman with a stripe of black and white over her eyes. The text across the top reads: slowburn, morally grey FMC, kill the rich, power and corruption, and found family.

A poster with an aged off-white background. In the center, a photo of foggy coniferous trees is overlayed with Josefa de Ayala's The Sacrificial Lamb painting. Above it, in a dark red sans-serif font, it reads "11-year-old AnalΓa Monroe only finds solace in her small circle of misfits---her younger half-sister Rajel and best friend June---and the dangerous, magical world of Mosswood deep in the forests of their rural Oregon hometown, but their obsession may have deadly consequences." The photo is outlined with a dark red border. Above the border, in green sans-serif text, it reads "There is something in the woods." Below the lamb, there are dark red blood drips which give way to the title, a green serif font reading "MOSSWOOD" and then "a novel by E.S. Hanson." Below that, in the same red sans-serif font, it reads "Adult contemporary fantasy, folk horror, dark fae folklore, eerie forests." Bordering the image are small golden guardian angel figures.

MOSSWOOD
An unusual town. A dark, eerie forest. A string of disappearances. Three misfits. A mystery they would die to solve.
