"Bellaire's writing blends folklore with a contemporary urgency and Del Rey's art is beautifully, frighteningly immersiveA stunning debut." - Scott Snyder
"Eisner Award-winning colorist Bellaire's debut writing effort is a stellar feminist occult horror comic... The spine-tingling adventure is filled with examples of sexual harassment, such as a principal propositioning one of his female students for sex, adding emotional terror to the spooky mix. Monsters abound, but even the supernatural characters evoke humanity and empathy. Del Rey's fine-lined watercolor-style art makes even gore look gorgeous and sets an ominous mood which elevates the suspense. This dark campfire tale is both politically relevant and terrifying." -Publishers Weekly
“Boasting striking body-horror and a powerful ‘smash the patriarchy’ message... One of the best horror comics out right now.” —Entertainment Weekly
"A chilling, vibrant, angry debut comic from some of the best creators working in comics today. These pages burn with brilliant art and perfectly rendered characters. Witches and Florida are the peanut butter and chocolate that have been missing from comics (and my life). If you're looking for a horror book that will grab you from page one and won't let go, if you're looking for a comic oozing with topical, all-too-real nightmares, or if you're just looking for a rippin' yarn-pre-order Redlands at your local comic shop today." -Robbie Thompson
"The writing, by Jordie Bellaire, doesn't give us any easy answers. The art, by Vanessa Del Rey, is reminiscent, with its muddy murk and startling colors, of 30 Days of Night. It gives us the impression that every scene is lit incompletely by flashlight and that anything could jump out of the darkness." —Ars Technica
"Incredibly empowering and perfectly timed for the current state of the Union." -NYLON Magazine
