Im reading HEX by Thomeas Olde Heuvelt, it's a story about Black Springs a town haunted by the Black Rock Witch, who has her eyes and mouth sewn shut.
In order to contain the curse the elders of the town try to cut themselves off from the outside as much as possible, discouraging people who want to move to the town, as part of the curse means that anyone who lives at Black Springs can never leave (at least for no more than a couple of weeks)
Even though it's a fairly dark subject matter there are some funny moments in it (so far), the Witch has a habit of just appearing in random places within the town, in the street, peoples homes etc and she will just stand there for random amounts of time, at one point she appears on someones front lawn as they are having a mini festival meaning outsiders are present, so they throw a sheet over her
