À propos de cet audio

Long-listed, Library Journal Best Books of the Year, 2023

"Wilson narrates with emotional depth, conveying all of Rose's intelligence, inquisitiveness, and fear as she's hunted by otherworldly beings."—AudioFile

“A joyful, furious romp through dark places, Tingle proves he's as good at fear as he is at love.”―T. Kingfisher, bestselling author of What Moves the Dead

From beloved internet icon Chuck Tingle, Camp Damascus is a searing and earnest horror debut about the demons the queer community face in America, the price of keeping secrets, and finding the courage to burn it all down.

Welcome to Neverton, Montana: home to a God-fearing community with a heart of gold.

Nestled high up in the mountains is Camp Damascus, the self-proclaimed “most effective” gay conversion camp in the country. Here, a life free from sin awaits. But the secret behind that success is anything but holy.

And they’ll scare you straight to hell.

This was a delightful listen!!

I saw Chuck promoting this so I preordered for support. I wasn't sure I'd like this. I'd seen conversion therapy horror before, and I wasn't loving it. But in an amazing venture outside of Mr. Tingle's usual genre, Camp Damascus had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Paced well, with great characters and packed full of gorgeous (and gruesome!) imagery, I'd recommend giving this book to anyone on the fence about it. I hope to see more books in this genre from Chuck Tingle in the future!

Wonderful!

Very likeable and believable characters, unapologetically queer, and offers a great sense of creeping unease that morphs into horror. Absolutely loved it.

fantastic piece of queer horror

A highly enjoyable story, incredibly well written. It truly captures the neurodivergent thought process. I really felt connected to the characters and found elements of the story quite relatable. The person dictating carries the mood very well.

Wonderful!

This book proves love is real, as our man Chuck might say. Engaging, exciting, and scary as heck! I quite literally pumped my fists in the air during the final climactic battle scene.
Rose is the autistic coded queer heroine I have always wanted to see in fiction.
Mara Wilson does a wonderful job narrating. The OG Matilda - a true buckaroo, if there ever was one.

everything I hoped it would be

I'd heard of this author before, so I was very intrigued about what this book would be like, and I have to say I am so happy I gave it a go. Its a very interesting take on cults, religion, and how people will lie to themselves for "the greater good." I totally recommend it!

Fantastic!

Hoped there would be even more horror elements to it but when you think of the horrors LGBTQIA+ people face daily from religious persecution, it truly is a horrifying novel. Well written and the desperation and love of the characters for each other is palpable. They do an excellent job of really showing how painful it can be to grow up believing something so fiercely and when confronted with the fact that the ideas are hate based and your identity is questioned, it’s really difficult to grasp where you stand in the world. A great read.

Excellent

I've never in my life read a chuck tingle book. but this book makes me want to read more of his work. he is an amazingly talented writer with weirdly poetic writing and skill for foreshadowing. while others often broadcast things too much Tingle can slip in an off hand comment ad something coming later that fits so well.

the story itself is horrific and grotesque at times and beautifully loving at others. deeply philosophical and scientifically at the same time. I wasn't sure I would like this but I really loved it by the end. it truely deserves to be made into a movie it's wonderful

Frustratingly good

A unique and thrilling story with spectacular narration. Tingle's love for allophony combined with Mara Wilson's narration sucks you right in and doesn't let you go. Satisfying ending with a good balance of the explained and the unexplained. Five stars!

Fresh, new, thrilling

Didn't think I'd ever see myself so clearly in a Chuck Tingle book, but man. It's about time that someone unpacks how scary it is to be gay and autistic in a world that tells you that you are the worst thing their child could turn out to be.

Thanks, Chuck!

If you, like me, grew up on a steady diet of Frank Peretti novels, youth group mission trips, and prayer for those who’d backslid, you’ll completely get this masterfully terrifying novel. The main character is very relatable for a neurodiverse reader. The characters are fleshed out and real. I couldn’t stop listening as the tension grew. I truly have nothing bad to say about this book. It’s fantastic, a must-read. Oh also it’s gay as hell. This buckaroo approves a thousand-fold!

Masterful and compelling
