This novel was originally released four years before I was born, a horror classic that I discovered when I was a teen. When I found myself on the hunt for a classic horror read, I knew this would be it. … Continue reading

Review: And the Trees Crept In by Dawn Kurtagich
I’m going to be intentionally vague in my comments regarding this book. Everything, from the beginning to the very final pages, is not as it seems. A genuine horror novel at its finest, the reader forced to question everything the … Continue reading

Review: Bird Box by Josh Malerman

Review: The Hatching by Ezekiel Boone
*Shivers* Ok, so normal spiders don’t terrify me. I mean, they serve a purpose, right? But human-devouring spiders set out to eat and reproduce? Terrifying. So yes, this book is spooky, graphic….but it is also rich with cheesy B-movie brilliance. … Continue reading

Hendrix is known most recently for his book Horrorstör, a horror story set in, of all places, an IKEA. I found it to be quite quirky and fun, so when I heard about his most recent book, I knew I had to … Continue reading
