Raleigh Woods

Raleigh Woods is a small-town inhabitant of Buckaroo, Oregon, the fictional birthplace of an disproportionate number of serial killers in the horror series Nailbiter, navigating a community where dark secrets and violent legacies permeate everyday life.

Stepping out of the unsettling pages of Joshua Williamson and Mike Henderson's Nailbiter in 2014, Raleigh Woods enters the Modern Age of Image Comics through one of the publisher's most chilling and acclaimed horror series. Born into a world haunted by figures like Edward Warren, Sheriff Crane, and Nicholas Finch, this character inhabits a deeply atmospheric corner of comics where small-town dread runs thick. With appearances spanning the main Nailbiter run and even the crossover Nailbiter / Hack/Slash, Raleigh's presence threads through some of the series' most memorable moments. If you're drawn to sophisticated horror comics with real literary ambition, Nailbiter is essential reading — and Raleigh Woods is woven right into its dark heart.
