SUMMARY:2 Ghouls 1 Mic (Live Readings from GHOULISH TALES #4 Authors)
DESCRIPTION:The latest issue of our horror magazine GHOULISH TALES released earlier this month\, and we happen to be lucky enough that two of the authors from this issue happen to live in the San Antonio area: Miguel Villa and Madelyn Lunnen. \nTo celebrate\, we are hosting the first-ever 2 Ghouls 1 Mic\, a reading event where both authors will read their stories from the magazine at our bookshop Ghoulish Books. \nJoin us downtown on Saturday\, September 27th at 7pm BEHIND THE SHOP (there’s a gate in the fence\, to the right of the shop if you’re facing it) where we will have seats and ONE (1) microphone set up. The two ghouls will take turns reading. They won’t\, uh\, read at the same time. That would be chaos! \nIt’s going to be a fun\, spooky time\, and it is free to attend (unless you park in one of the paid lots surrounding the building\, we guess). We will also have copies of the magazine for sale at the shop (alternatively\, you can order through our webstore). \nHope to see you there!

SUMMARY:In-Person Author Signing with Laura Creedle
DESCRIPTION:Laura Creedle will be in-person at Ghoulish Books on Saturday\, September 20th from 2pm-5pm to celebrate the release of her new novel The Deep Well. A limited supply of copies will be available for purchase at the shop\, which the author will sign for readers. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nLaura Creedle is the author of The Love Letters of Abelard and Lily\, which Kirkus Reviews described as “entertaining\, thought-provoking\, and unsettling—in a good way.” When she’s not writing\, Laura can usually be found playing pinball or watching indie horror. She lives in Austin\, Texas\, with her husband and a feral cat named Hellman who was found with her head stuck in a mayonnaise jar. \nABOUT THE BOOK\nIn this tense\, atmospheric novel where shadows flit across each page\, Laura Creedle unfolds a story about legends\, paranoia\, and the horror that hides just below the surface. A must-read for fans of Rory Power and Cheryl Isaacs! \nWhen April Fischer was five\, the voice from the well told her to fly. \nEver since April survived the strange and brutal massacre at the Copperton mine twelve years ago\, she has been in the spotlight. At first\, as the subject of internet urban legend. Then\, as a horror movie inspiration. And most frighteningly\, as the darling of a cult that believes that on her seventeenth birthday she will come into universe-altering power. \nApril has unanswered questions about what really went down at the mine—most of all\, what happened to her father\, the foreman on the drill site\, who disappeared on that day. Until the week before her birthday\, when she is given a collection of documents and the words He’s alive. \nAs April uncovers more about her childhood at the mine\, the cultists’ beliefs don’t feel as impossible as she once thought\, and she begins to hope that she truly can bring her father back. But even though she never wants to go near the edge of the open-pit mine again\, there are forces in Copperton who want to see her fail . . . or watch her fly.

Cerilli\, November Rush\, Meredith Rose\, Charlene Adhiambo\, Violet\, and Thomas Kearnes.
