★★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★

Cosmic Horror served two ways in the same book. John Langan's Bram Stoker Award winning novel The Fisherman serves a unique nested story structure to deliver the tale of how two widowed men deal with grief and loss by fishing, but are being drawn into literally hellish decisions.

★★★★ out of ★★★★★ The Cthulhu Mythos gets a spin from current horror writers, in the way that Lovecraftian tales should be told, in an anthology. There's a lot of variety packed into this compilation and features some notable writers, including Neil Gaiman, John Langan, and Joe R. Lansdale.
★★★★ out of ★★★★★ An Epic Tragedy re-imagined as a battle against a supernatural beast as well as the polar elements, starvation, cannibalism, and treachery.  Good times!
Lindsay Ball-McQueen of BOOM marketing has come up with a fantastic set of images that re-imagines famous horror scenes by making them part of a children's pop-up book. How fun!
★★★★★ No matter whether you are a well-read aficionado of Forteana and high strangeness or a newcomer to the world of extraterrestrials, cryptids, and supernatural occurrences, Zelia Edgar's debut book Just Another Tin Foil Hat Presents is a delightful, entertaining read.
 ★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★ Follow Penpal author Dathan Auerbach on a harrowing search for Eric in his latest novel, Bad Man.
★★★★ out of ★★★★★ “We could devote our lives to making sense of the odd, the inexplicable, the coincidental, but most of us don’t. And neither did I.”
★★★★ out of ★★★★★ The haunted house story is a tried and true horror trope, but what if the house was not only haunted by the ghosts of the past, but by shadowy figures from the future, too? That's exactly what appears to be happening in the crumbling mansion at the center of this story.
★★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★ Written by Dathan Auerbach. Knock, Knock! You open the door. “Hello there, have you read Penpal? No? Well let me tell you a little bit about it so that you too can accept Dathan Auerbach’s 2012 novel into the horror literature cannon”
