Written by Cullen Bunn, author of the popular horror comic series The Sixth Gun, Night Trap pays homage to the notorious slasher films of the '80s and '90s. Although it bears the same name as the video game, Bunn creates an original story, influenced by the '90s Night Trap and other titles in the fear-filled genre. In the terrifying comic, a group of co-eds rents a beautiful lake house hoping to get some weekend relaxation and fun. During their stay, they encounter a murder-hungry madman who has watched a few too many splatter flicks. What follows is a gory maze of blood and pain, with death as the likely escape.
