Horror for Newbies

When should you share a secret?

Addison and Mabel discuss in this timely exchange from Fright on Stage Right…

Conversation indicated by alternating speech bubbles over the heads of two illustrated characters. Younger man on the left, speaking first; older woman on the right, speaking second; then they alternate. ‘All in good time.’ ‘No time like the present.’ ‘Better late than never.’ ‘Time waits for no one.’ ‘One day at a time.’ ‘The early bird catches the worm.’ ‘All good things must come to an end?’ ‘Good try, but not quite.‘ ‘I’m fresh out of time-related cliches.’

To read the other 70k+ words, be sure to pre-order Fright on Stage Right and you’ll get it the moment it’s released on 23 September 2025: Amazon US, Amazon UK, Amazon CA, Amazon DE, or Amazon AU (NZ).

Fright on Stage Right (A Milverton Mystery) by G. B. Ralph. Cover image and description/blurb. It’s opening night at the theatre and Addison Harper has front-row seats with Sergeant Jake Murphy. This might just be his perfect date. The variety show promises spooky Halloween fun, ghoulish drag queens, frightening musical numbers, and the scariest thing of all: audience participation. Of course, the unlucky victim dragged from the safety of his seat is a mortified Addison. In a production full of twists and turns, he has no idea what’s coming next but nobody could have anticipated witnessing a sudden, absolutely unscripted, and very real death. A dreadful accident? Or was it foul play? As the curtain falls before a horror-struck audience, Addison Harper finds himself once again in the spotlight at centre stage.
