I do love my horror to have a sense of humour! It’s a tough one to pull off but this little tale certainly manages to do just that. To have you chuckling and squirming in equal measure is a very… Read More ›

Book Review – The Devil’s Pocketbook by Ross Jeffery
This book was getting plenty of hype pre-release in the horror community. It hasn’t been unknown for things (films, books, TV shows, albums) to suffer from this pre-conceived notion that they’re going to be the best thing ever. Sometimes things… Read More ›

Book Review – God Forbid by A. A. Medina
I’ve been a big fan of A A Medina’s work for a while now, so when I saw this little offering of horrific treats, well, I won’t finish this cliched sentence. On first opening the book I was slightly, not… Read More ›
