Michael Wehunt

A very happy book birthday to John Langan's newest collection, Lost in the Dark and Other Excursions! As always, Langan is an auto-buy author, and I absolutely loved the title piece when I read it years ago in a Datlow anthology.

🙌 It's so soon!

🙌 It's so far away!

A STARRED Booklist review for THE OCTOBER FILM HAUNT! This is my first trade review! “The terrors Wehunt weaves throughout the novel are a cosmic fusion of William Faulkner's gothic with modern sensibilities.” Thanks to A.E. Siraki for the kind words! 📼

It's been a huge scandal!

I have my own review to post of this book closer to release but: it’s very good and I recommend reading it.

Really happy to hear this!!

Thank you, Papa Bad Hand!

THE OCTOBER FILM HAUNT is reviewed in the new issue of @fangoria.bsky.social! I'll be a puddle of goo next to a Wet Floor sign in my local bookstore later when I pick up a copy. Many thanks to Ahlissa Eichhorn for the kind words. 📼

Finished very dark second novel recently + finished my first short story in 4.5 years yesterday. This is me for the next couple of weeks as I relearn what free time is.

Perfection

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy! (And high five for ordering from your local shop.)

The WaPa headline says: 60,000 Gazans were killed. 18,500 of them were children. These are some of their names. Then follows an enormous list of small print names

Thousands of small print names interspersed with some photos of some of the child victims

NEW: 18,500 children have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.

The Washington Post has just published every single known name.

A seminal moment.

You have my undying (undead) gratitude!

That's great! Either way, I hope you enjoy!

Thank you, Michael! I appreciate it. After 9 years, it's great to let this story out of the exclusive-to-collection cage it's always been in.

No, thank you! 😊

This is awesome, and such a lovely bonus/gesture for pre-ordering THE OCTOBER FILM HAUNT (which you should!)

BUT

I also truly, wholly, sincerely recommend you buy GREENER PASTURES, the short story collection with this novelette ⬇️ in it- it's an incredible assortment of creepy and haunting stories.

Thank you so much for this! It made my day.

Thank you, Chris! 🙌

VHS styled text on a distorted video background reads: "The October Film Haunt is the most creepy, freaky, scary book l've read in a long, long while, and that is a thing of both beauty and immense pleasure, for books are magic, and the magic in this one is electric."

Thank you, NetGalley reviewer. Might put this on the fridge under the séance magnet. 🖤📼

This might be the fastest I've ever pre-ordered a book.

Amazing, thank you, Thom!
