NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE TURNS TEN YEARS OLD

2024 also marks the ten year anniversary of No One Gets Out Alive, published in 2014, By Pan Macmillan and St Martins. This story was intended to be, aesthetically, a companion piece to The Ritual, only set indoors. A story in which a character is taken to the end of their physical and mental endurance, during a battle for survival against both human and supernatural evil.

 

Each of these novels were stories that I visualised as imaginary horror films; films that I wanted to watch. Interestingly, each novel became an actual horror film. I even wrote a logline for NOGOA (NOGOA was the nickname we all used during the making of the film): "Fifteen ghosts, three serial killers, and something much worse in the cellar".

 

I also added a sequel to each film within each novel. That's why they fall into two parts.
