Now reading!!! THE MANY HAUNTINGS OF THE MANNING FAMILY by @lorienlawrence.bsky.social! I already love Gabby and Trent! Twins who are growing up and facing all the questions that come with that. Throw some ghosts in and i’m sure it will be fine.
I love middle grade horror!

In addition to editing and publishing anthologies, I also submit to a lot of anthologies! So I’ve been around the block a few times, know a thing or two, and can offer practical tips for participating in the madness that is life on submission.

Undertaker Books Editor-in-Chief Rebecca Cuthbert just about fell off her chair when she received the news that L. Marie Wood herself--yes, THAT author--would be signing her experimental horror novella IF IT'S THE BIRDS, WE'RE IN TROUBLE with U.B.

These books are EXCELLENT. They are what every struggling or grieving kid needs. They are honest and bold, challenging and healing. They are what so many of needed back in the day and did not have.

What about those who have nothing? Loved “Poor Billy” in @rebeccacuthbert.bsky.social ‘s Six O’ Clock House and Other Strange Tales! Creepy and weird and sad with an ending that will punch you in all the feels.

We love to see our books in the wild! Here is Kathleen Palm's INTO THE GRAY at Sunbound Books in Fort Wayne, IN! The second book in the Nowhere series, WITHIN THE BLACK, will be out this fall. <3 Great for kids struggling to understand and process grief, and great for adults, too.

This weekend marks the 6 year anniversary of the death of Dutch actor, environmentalist, and AIDS activist Rutger Hauer.
One of his most iconic roles was in The Hitcher, so I wanted to honor his legacy with a look at some great hitchhiker horror stories
Here’s you hitchhiker horror recs:
Please help us wish our president and associate editor, D.L. Winchester, a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! D.L. is also our library and bookstore liaison, and represents Undertaker Books at Crimson Curiosities and at live author events! (And he puts up with us--Rebecca and Cyan.) THANK YOU D.L.! We love you!
