Carrie White is no ordinary girl.

Carrie White has the gift of telekinesis.

To be invited to Prom Night by Tommy Ross is a dream come true for Carrie – the first step towards social acceptance by her high school colleagues.

But events will take a decidedly macabre turn on that horrifying and endless night as she is forced to exercise her terrible gift on the town that mocks and loathes her . . .

The novel culminates in a final, deadly confrontation between Carrie and her mother, Margaret. The story is told through a mix of traditional narrative and fictional documents, such as newspaper clippings and excerpts from government reports, which lend a sense of chilling authenticity.
