Michael Hicks reviews the audiobook for STAY ON THE LINE. Maybe it’s time you reach out and touch someone. Read the full review here: bit.ly/4kNeOPV

I love sharing this sentence with Eric: “Chapman starts off the Night side with a bang, closely followed by a story full of absolute skin-crawling creepiness that only Eric LaRocca can deliver.” Ellen Datlow’s NIGHT & DAY gets a STAR from Library Journal: bit.ly/43QAlkw

The hardback of ACQUIRED TASTE just arrived. This book doesn’t come out until September but I’m holding these beautiful books in my hands/heart/loins and I just love love love them. I’m slowly beginning to embark upon getting the word out on this collection, my first since 2017.

Look who showed up at the Library?!?!? It’s Clay McLeod Chapman’s new Graphic Novel, Seance in the Asylum :)

CJ Leede, Eric LaRocca, Neil McRobert, Nat Cassidy, Rachel Harrison & Nick Harris, all sitting at a table, talking about horror.

In one week, author Daniel Kraus joins me on Fearmongers to discuss his modern masterpiece ANGEL DOWN. Thursday, June 26th at 8PM/ET. Register via Zoom here: bit.ly/4lcQKpt Westport Library

Cover reveal for Twisted Tales to Tell in the Night, published by Death by TBR Books. I’ve got a total goof in this anthology titled BOOGER SUGAR. You’ll never want to pick your nose… ever again. Thank you Death by TBR Books

I wrote a book a while back called THE REMAKING. It featured a spoof on one of my all-time faves Let’s Scare Jessica to Death, retitled Don’t Tread On Jessica’s Grave. Bookstagrammer Ric made this wonderful rendering of a VHS sleeve cover and I wish this movie actually existed.

This is so cool.
