Today’s topic of discussion is another book that I just chose randomly from the offerings suggested to me on Kindle Unlimited; my only stipulations for the book I wanted to read were that it be generally highly rated, and be set in the winter (since that’s the season in which I read it). I picked … More Books: Autumn Bleeds Into Winter by Jeff Strand
My Best Friend’s Exorcism by Grady Hendrix (2016) Grady Hendrix has quickly become one of my favorite authors working today, not only because of the awesome graphic design elements of his books and the fact that he wrote an amazing non-fiction coffee table book all about the horror paperback boom of the 70s and 80s, … More Five of My Favorite Horror Novels of the 21st Century (So Far)
The book I want to talk about today is something of a wild card, at least in the way I happened to read it. Inamorata by Joseph Gangemi originally came out in 2004, but I picked it up completely at random several years after that. I was in a Barnes and Noble sometime back in … More Books: Inamorata by Joseph Gangemi
Allow me to briefly expound upon my love of haunted house movies (and books). They are, bar none, my go-to genre of horror, and my list of favorites includes many stellar examples: The Haunting, The Others, The Changeling, The Innocents, The Shining, The Legend of Hell House. There is just something so inherently nasty about … More Book vs. Movie: Burnt Offerings
As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t usually put a great deal of conscious thought into what books I’m going to read for this series, unless, for example, a friend or trusted reviewer makes a specific recommendation. Most times, I simply browse through whatever is available to read for free on Kindle Unlimited that has a … More Books: Intercepts by T.J. Payne
Because there are, sadly, way more worthwhile horror books out there than I will ever have time enough in my life to read, when I’m looking for something new to read and review, I rely a lot on recommendations from friends and other horror channels and sites. And because the book I was going to … More Books: The Rotting Within by Matt Kurtz
If any of you guys are fans of “killer kid” horror, then you’ve probably heard of the book Baby Teeth, which was Zoje Stage’s debut novel and got all sorts of positive buzz when it was released in the summer of 2018. I noticed from a quick perusal of reviews that it seemed somewhat polarizing … More Books: Baby Teeth by Zoje Stage
I had read a couple of novels by Ania Ahlborn before—those being 2017’s The Devil Crept In and 2019’s If You See Her—and I enjoyed them both enough to want to read another one of hers when it popped up in my Kindle Unlimited recommendations. If you’re unfamiliar, Ania Ahlborn is quite a popular and … More Books: The Shuddering by Ania Ahlborn
Published in 1983, Susan Hill’s The Woman in Black has become a modern classic of old-school British gothic ghost stories. Not only has it had two film adaptations (a made-for-TV English production from 1989 with a screenplay by Nigel Kneale; and a financially successful 2012 adaptation starring Daniel Radcliffe and produced by a revamped Hammer … More Books: The Woman in Black by Susan Hill
I had only heard of the author Sara Gran peripherally, mentioned on a few other book review channels I watch, so when I came across her novella Come Closer, I wasn’t really aware of: one, how old it was, and two, how it had had something of a resurgence in popularity more recently, following the … More Books: Come Closer by Sara Gran
