If you like meta-horror, definitely check out @emocomicwriter.bsky.social's book The Slasher's Apprentice as well as this episode all about "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon" a clever horror mockumentary.

I had an absolute blast talking with the @proghorrorpod.bsky.social crew about one of my favorite slasher movies of all time and how it inspired my newest book, The Slasher's Apprentice! Definitely worth a listen if you have any affinity for the slasher genre.

Aw, thank you so much! We had a blast making it.

Thanks so much for shouting out Slasher's Apprentice!🔪
