Dead Ahead: A Roadside Horror Story of an Accident, an Occult Revenge Ritual, and Undead Terror

Dead Ahead begins with a roadside accident and escalates through an occult revenge ritual into a confrontation with the undead.

Horror story podcast fans—this one is roadside terror with a mean streak. After a late-night drive turns into a catastrophic hit-and-run accident, Becca and her boyfriend Tom drag their secret off the highway and into the dark pines—shovel, flashlight, and panic doing the talking. But guilt doesn’t stay buried… and neither does the dead.

When Tom’s cruelty pushes Becca past the breaking point, she turns to occult magic—a dangerous revenant ritualmeant to right a wrong and quiet her conscience. Instead, it drags something back with a mission… and it doesn’t care who’s “really” to blame.

Supernatural revenge, undead horror, and a brutal reckoning collide in a story about toxic love, control, and what happens when you try to fix a nightmare with a spell.

Dead Ahead — by Joe Solmo

Dead Ahead combines zombie and undead horror, folklore, ritual, and cursed traditions, and revenge and supernatural justice as parts of one unfolding threat, preserving the suspense around what the characters discover and who ultimately escapes it.
