Death on the Bumper Cars

It’s going to be the best week ever! Bastian and his best friend Valkyrie are going to the amusement park every single day. He doesn’t want to think about the fact that he and his family will be moving at the weekend. After all, Bastian is always happy!

But at the park, things take a dark turn. In the red bumper car, Bastian sees a shadowy figure in the mirror—and afterwards, he knows something is terribly wrong…

Death on the Bumper Cars is a chilling new story from Elin Viktoria Unstad—a standalone follow-up to Død-og-dalbane (Death on the Rollercoaster) (2024).
