SUMMARY:In-Person Signing with William Sterling
DESCRIPTION:William Sterling will be in-person at Ghoulish Books on Thursday\, December 4th from 5pm-7pm to sign copies of his KILLER BE KILLED books and his anthology PUNK GOES HORROR. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\n\nWilliam Sterling is an author\, editor\, screenwriter\, and sometimes actor from Dacula\, Georgia. \n\nABOUT KILLER BE KILLED\nBoone Hampton had been dreading this day forever. The day when his baby girl would leave “the nest” to embark into the world on her own. He had hoped this moment wouldn’t come until college\, or maybe a rebellious streak in high school\, yet here he was\, leaving her at a pre-teen summer camp. Boone squeezes his daughter’s hands one last time and lets her go.\nThe day would have been hard enough if it had just ended there.\nBut now the counselors at Camp Tall Pines have begun sacrificing the campers to resurrect a long-slumbering demonic entity\, and Boone will have to risk everything to avenge his daughter.\nKiller Be Killed takes the traditional camp serial killer formula and turns it on its head in a Splatterpunk-light homage to the slashers of the 80s with healthy doses of demonic possession and anti-cult related sub-plots cooked in for good measure.\nLanyards On. Masks Up.\nIt’s time to play some camp games. \nABOUT PUNK GOES HORROR\nPUNK goes HORROR is a mixtape anthology\, full of terrifying tales inspired by some of your favorite authors’ favorite punk\, or punk adjacent\, songs. Get ready for hymns of rebellion and stories of musical mayhem which connect body horrors to bass drums\, rhythm guitars to psychological terrors\, and microphones to human monsters.

SUMMARY:GHOULISH BOOK CLUB – THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS (NOVEMBER 30)
DESCRIPTION:The GHOULISH BOOK CLUB continues with November’s pick: THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS by Stephen Graham Jones! \nFrom New York Times bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones comes a novel that is equal parts psychological horror and cutting social commentary on identity politics and the American Indian experience. Fans of Sylvia Moreno Garcia and Tommy Orange will love this story as it follows the lives of four American Indian men and their families\, all haunted by a disturbing\, deadly event that took place in their youth. Years later\, they find themselves tracked by an entity bent on revenge\, totally helpless as the culture and traditions they left behind catch up to them in a violent\, vengeful way. \nIn this “thrilling\, literate\, scary\, [and] immersive” (Stephen King) tale\, Jones blends his signature storytelling style with a haunting narrative that masterfully intertwines revenge\, cultural identity\, and tradition. \nCopies are in stock at our shop (10% off)! We will discuss the book all month on the GHOULISH DISCORD and if you’re local we will do an in-person discussion at our shop on November 30th\, Sunday 6pm.

SUMMARY:GHOULISH BOOK CLUB – ALL HALLOWS (OCTOBER 26)
DESCRIPTION:The GHOULISH BOOK CLUB continues with October’s pick: ALL HALLOWS by Christopher Golden! \nIt’s Halloween night\, 1984\, in Coventry\, Massachusetts\, and two families are unraveling.

Children in vintage costumes with faded\, eerie makeup. They seem terrified\, and beg the neighborhood kids to hide them away\, to keep them safe from The Cunning Man. There’s a small clearing in the woods now that was never there before\, and a blackthorn tree that doesn’t belong at all. These odd children claim that The Cunning Man is coming for them…and they want the local kids to protect them. But with families falling apart and the neighborhood splintered by bitterness\, who will save the children of Parmenter Road? \nNew York Times bestselling\, Bram Stoker Award-winning author Christopher Golden is best known for his supernatural thrillers set in deadly\, distant locales…but in this suburban Halloween drama\, Golden brings the horror home. \nAll Hallows.

SUMMARY:Let the Woods Keep Our Bodies - Book Launch @ Longfellow Books
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at Longfellow Books on Tuesday\, October 10 at 6pm EST for a very special launch of E. M. Roy’s debut novel\, Let the Woods Keep Our Bodies (published by Ghoulish Books)!\n\n\n\nLeo Bates knows what’s behind every corner in her hometown of Eston\, Maine\, where she’s lived her whole life. Some bad memories and grief for her late parents\, sure\, but nothing dangerous. Nothing unexplainable. All of that changes when her girlfriend Tate goes missing\, and the lead detective on the case blames Leo for the disappearance. Haunted by self-doubt\, Leo can only watch as the town she thought she knew deteriorates around her. She is forced to confront the painful truth about her parents\, this town\, and her relationship if she is to survive the following onslaught of conspiracies\, cryptic monstrosities\, and whatever is hiding in the woods where Tate was last seen.\n\nThe familiar becomes strange the longer you look at it. Leo navigates a broken sense of reality\, shattered memories\, and a distrust of herself in order to find Tate and restore balance to Eston—if such a thing ever existed to begin with.\n\n\n\n\n\nE. M. Roy (she/they) is a writer and lover of all things weird\, horrific\, and dark\, especially when those things have a social justice bend and are rooted in a queer perspective. After obtaining a B.A. in English from Boston University\, their work has appeared in a handful of small publications. She currently resides near Portland\, Maine with her parents\, sibling\, and dog\, Boo. Let the Woods Keep Our Bodies is their debut novel.
