Examiner review: “The Leper Window is a subtle work of horror”

Looks like my new horror novella The Leper Window passed the exam over at Examiner.com:

“The novella has a very strong sense of location as well as an almost palpable sense of doom that engulfs the story and gives it the feel of an older horror work by writers such as H.P Lovecraft or M.R. James.For fans of classic horror, ‘The Leper Window’ is sure to be a treatand a break from the norm in the current horror genre.”

Read the full review here.

The Leper Window is released October 6th.

RIP Wes Craven, sweet dreams and thank you for all the nightmares

Wes Craven A Nightmare On Elm Street

a genre giant – on the set of Nightmare On Elm Street (photo source: WesCraven.com)

Horror fans are mourning the loss ofa Master of Horror. Wes Craven was a true innovator in the genre who hada knack fortakingtransgression and giving it mainstream popularity. From his early video nastiesthrough to the live burial scene in The Serpent and the Rainbow (arachnophobes beware!) andthe crowd-pleasing jump scares of the Scream series, Uncle Wes knew whatscared us. I remember having bruises up my arm...

In Memoriam: Sir Christopher Lee

IMG_2320

When I was ten years old I used to pretend Christopher Lee was my dad (still do sometimes – between you and me). Staying up to watch him play Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster and The Mummy in Hammer double bills on telly made quite an impression on me. (and look how well I turned out….)

I’ll never forget meeting Mr Lee years later at a signing – he made a point of standing up because i was with a young lady. What a gentleman (this lovely piece at Brutal As Hell says it all really) and what a...

I survived the Hell-e-vator at World Horror Con Atlanta! #WHC2015

Bram Stoker Awards Weekend & World Horror Con 2015 was a total blast.

I met so many wonderful people, participated in and attended brilliant panels, signed a coffin load of books, and presented the World Premiere of my new movie The Stay. My first Stoker Awards Banquet was an unforgettable night, and I had the pleasure of sitting at the Samhain Horror table with several of my labelmates. I even sipped single malt whisky and chatted with the legendary Jack Ketchum with my partner in crime Aaro...
