It still feels surreal, but my first book officially launches today! Graciously published by Dundurn Press, you can find it in bookstores. If it’s not on the shelf, ask them to order a copy β€” or even better, order directly through Dundurn. ~Brian

The Conjuring: Last Rites puts the Smurls’ infamous haunting in the ring, but instead of a knockout, it feels like a padded, saccharine send-off. There were some solid punches, plenty of misses, and a reminder that a $2.5B horror movie franchise doesn’t quit without a spectacle.

We most certainly dug the film Weapons with its gallows humour, sinister invasion of our suburban safety and its channelling of witchcraft. Here's a review and, perhaps, our gushing of it being an ode to Baba Yaga and Muma Pădurii. bit.ly/4oEj4Dw
