Why these tropes fit
Cora Glass, an ordinary bank teller, finds her mundane existence upended when a long-abandoned circus called Harrow Faire mysteriously returns to life. After striking a deal that binds her soul, she becomes trapped in the supernatural world of the faire, held by a man called the Puppeteer who is described as fiendish yet alluring. Cora is quickly pulled into a bitter conflict between the Puppeteer and the reclusive Mr. Harrow, with both men willing to go to murderous extremes to claim her. As Harrow Faire's three-ring nightmare unfolds, Cora discovers she is the prize both factions are determined to possess.
