25 Gates Of Hell Cover Unveiled, To Be Out For Halloween

The email from Editor/Publisher R.L. Burwick was almost triumphant: I proudly present to you . . . the cover for 25 GATES OF HELL! With my imp in this inferno a tale called “The Re-Possessed” (see July 3, et al.), about a Victorian undertaker and why it’s always best to be honest in paying one’s debts.

A moral screed in a way, that is.

25 GATES OF HELL itself is a sequel of sorts to an earlier volume from Kyala Publishing, Inc., in 2018, 19 GATES OF HELL — the devil has apparently been busy with six new gates added — and, like its predecessor, will be a collection of general horror. Just bigger and better. “The Re-Possessed” for its part has a bit of a history too, having originally been published in CEMETERY RIOTS (Awol From Elysium Press, 2016) and reprinted once in the “dreadpunk” anthology DEADSTEAM (Grimmer & Grimmer Books, 2018).

Then one final item from today’s email: Also wanted to let you know we’re planning on releasing around the 27th or 28th of this month! Or in other words, look for 25 GATES OF HELL to be out in time for Halloween.
