It's summertime and I feel the need to read a horror novel or three! 

Horror Movie Novelizations - Cover Gallery

I take a lot of joy in finding one of these on the shelves of used book stores. I love digging into the alternate version of the film they often present with deeper characterizations and more nuanced motivations. Of course, there is also the fun of reading the descriptions of the monsters the author came up with as well. And sometimes a novelization will give you a surprise or two that was cut from the finished movie. Fun stuff for a horror loving reader! 

  

Novel - The Halloween Children

As part of my celebrating of the season I recently read this excellent horror novel by Brian James Freeman and Norman Prentiss. It tells a short and clever tale of madness and murder during the month of monsters that I found hard to put down. Well crafted and creepy it is exactly the right kind of scary tale for you if you're looking for something to get under your skin! I highly recommend it. 

"The accommodations at Stillbrook Apartments aren't exactly glamorous, but they're quiet, affordable, and well-maintained. The handyman is usually available to help with a leak or a broken bulb, his wife and two adorable kids often tagging along. When occasion dictates, the neighbors gather to wish each other well and spread the requisite holiday cheer. Everything's very nice. Very normal.

But as Halloween approaches, strange occurrences are happening all around Stillbrook. The children tell disturbing stories, bizarre noises bleed through the walls, and one abandoned unit is found to be inhabited by something sinister—something that's no longer alive." 

Check it out! 

Dr. Cushing's Chamber of Horrors by Stephen D. Sullivan - Out on August 30th!

About the Book: The monsters aren’t only in the museum! Despite a lifetime of traveling with their father to collect strange artifacts, twins Topaz and Opal Cushing have never fully believed in monsters or the supernatural. Oh, sure, they share an eerie psychic connection, and their tarot card readings often come true, but… Werewolves? Vampires? Living mummies? None of those could be real. Those legends are just for rubes. Right? Since the girls’ father has been away, though, strange things have been happening in the family’s little exhibit—and in the waxworks studio that shares their dilapidated Victorian mansion on the outskirts of London. Now, the twins’ dreams of a fun, romantic summer season are turning into a nightmare, and the monsters are running... Dr. Cushing’s Chamber of Horrors!
