Welcome To The Farm
Hazel Perez thought her school project on the abandoned Oakwell Farms School for Girls—or “The Farm” as it’s known to locals—would be just another assignment. But when a late-night research trip ends with her falling unconscious, she reawakens with a desire for revenge that isn’t her own. Desperate to free herself from these sudden violent urges, Hazel begins to investigate.
As she delves deeper into Oakwell Farms’ past, Hazel discovers the harrowing experiences of the girls who were once forced to live within its walls—under the eyes of sinister men—and the spirits who still linger.
With the help of some unlikely allies, Hazel must navigate a treacherous path of corruption, history, and the supernatural to bring peace to the restless spirits and uncover the truth about her family’s involvement.
The Silenced delves into the Trouble Teen Industry through a riveting exploration of a reform school’s haunted past colliding with the traumatized present.

Why I’m Waiting: First of all, this synopsis sounds incredible. And second, its YA horror. Y’all know I’m going to read it anyways. And 3rd, I saw like 6 ratings of 5 stars, and that’s basically all I needed to see. (I didn’t read the reviews for fear of spoilers, so seeing just the rating is fine with me.) This looks so good and is arguably my favorite cover of the second half of 2025. I need this like I need air!
What about you? Do you like horror? Will you read this? What do you think of the cover? Let me know in the comments!
