An official announcement and full list of titles will be coming soon, but in the meantime we wanted to let you know we've signed an agreement with Quirk Books, publishers of PAPERBACKS FROM HELL, to publish a limited series of reissues of novels featured in PFH, to be edited by Grady Hendrix and Will Errickson (Too Much Horror Fiction). Subscribe to our email newsletter or keep an eye on our website blog for more updates on this exciting series! Our first announcement is a new edition of Elizabeth Engstrom's When Darkness Loves Us .

Not yet but it will be available to preorder within the next few months.

Can't wait!

[Kimberly]

YES!!! This is fantastic news!!!!! :D

[Kimberly]

I've been looking for some of those (and realizing I can't afford/find most that I don't already have) since I read PAPERBACKS FROM HELL. :)

[Melanie]

This news just made my day :) Thank you PBH and Valancourt xxx

[Kylie]

Yessss! Amazing news!

[Laurie (barksbooks)]

Sign me up for all of them!

[Thomas]

Will y'all set up a subscription service for these titles? I'll be first in line if you do.

Ditto that!

Just another reason to adore Valancourt books!

We're thinking about it! I'll let you know if we're able to do it. :)

[Luke]

+1 for a subscription service.

I'm definitely interested. Sure, I'll probably be interested in the more prestigious titles such as those previously republished as collector's editions (Bari Wood's THE TRIBE, for instance) and those names I may be more familiar with in my limited research, but you never know what you'll find, so I'm hoping to be really surprised. (I actually haven't read Paperbacks from Hell yet - I wish to change that, so I have more of an idea what's coming).

Also, this may be an opportunity to finally get the rights to those titles that you've been trying to get for some time now. For instance, is there any chance of finally snagging William H. Hallahan's THE SEARCH FOR JOSEPH TULLY now?

[Valancourt Books]

We found out recently we will not be doing anything with the JOSEPH TULLY book.

Shame. Still looking forward to the rest of the series, of course.

Though I have to ask (and I hope I'm not beating a dead topic), is anyone else going to be publishing the book? Has someone else gotten to it already? (I ask because a similar thing happened with T. E. D. Klein's THE CEREMONIES, which I am now glad to say is offered as a reasonably priced trade paperback by PS Publishing!)


LAST MINUTE UPDATE: Forget it, I found it myself. Dover Publications is releasing the book on Oct. 17, 2018. Well, at least it's getting reprinted, and that's the good news. Hey, thanks for trying!

[Will]

I'm happy to see that so many people are psyched about this, because I know I am!

Since PAPERBACKS FROM HELL came out, Will, there are many us that are very excited to see these old faves coming back. You played no small part in that, so thank you. :)

[Kelly]

So excited by this news! I've read Paperbacks from Hell several times, and there are many, many books I would love to add to the shelves, but budget doesn't permit. When Darkness Loves Us sounds like a great choice to kick things off (though I confess I'm hoping for Eat Them Alive and Let's Go Play at the Adams', because I have questionable taste).

[Kimberly]

I can't wait to see what Valancourt brings us! I searched for some of the Paperbacks from Hell for days, and if not outright "not available", the prices are astronomical!
