Jess | 3 comments Hey, I'm looking for books in a weirdly specific genre - groups of people getting lost. Ideally in a car (or the car breaking down) but on foot is okay too.

Some along the lines I'm thinking of: Nightmare Inn by TS Rue (YA horror, a group of friends break down near a creepy hotel in the middle of nowhere), Devil in the Darkness by Archie Roy (a couple get lost in a snowstorm and end up at a creepy house filled with people investigating ghosts), Class Trip II by Bebe Faas Rice (YA, a group of students end up stranded in a weird town).

Movies along the lines of what I mean: House of Wax and maybe In Fear.

If anyone has any recs I'd be super grateful!

This is one of those themes I was sure I could come up with a bunch, but after looking over all my lists of books the only one I could find is Snow by Ronald Malfi.

I can think of movies -- The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and those influenced by it -- and some short stories like "The River of Night's Dreaming" by Karl Edward Wagner and (I think) "Crouch End" by Stephen King, but besides the novel above, I'm at a loss.
