Very cool place! Great owner. Great books. They are super nice and knowledgeable. It’s very family friendly here. Just fair warning, The owner likes to dress like his dog. So, you may see him dressed in a dog suit from time to time,

Some pretty professional ghouls in this joint. If you don't have the pleasure of stopping in physically they have a great online store!

The staff are helpful and welcoming. Max, the owner is awesome (he is a horror author too)!! They have horror books that you won't find in other retail bookstores and a few signed copies. They carry spooky books for YA, middle, and kids too. This is my favorite bookstore!! 🤓🖤

Now Back in Print: IN DREAMS WE ROT

New year, old fears? Does that work? I don’t know. Moving on. This is a post about Betty Rocksteady’s In Dreams We Rot, her debut story collection that came out a few years ago from another press, then went out of print, and is now back in reprint thanks to Ghoulish Books. It’s available right now, ghouls. A collection that any diehard horror fan would be a fool not to slobber over. Take a look at a copy in the flesh:

FICTION LIKE A FEVER DREAM

A voyeur becomes the one being watched, terrifying beasts are stitched together, strange new insects appear, ancient sex gods rise, and an island on the brink of madness falls apart.

Betty Rocksteady’s debut collection blends surrealism and horror, tearing apart tropes as words bleed and transform down unexpected avenues of nightmare logic. These twenty stories run the gamut from splatterpunk to somber. They’re hot and wet and nasty, guaranteed to leave you with an unspeakable sense of dread.

This new edition of In Dreams We Rot includes a bonus short story, story notes from the author, and an introduction from the publisher titled “Betty Rocksteady in 3D”.

All paperback orders will come with a signed author sticker (while supplies last).

Order from our webstore HERE. Or check it out on AMAZON | B&N | POWELL’S. We are also still waiting for it to generate via Indigo and Bookshop dot org.

Track it on Goodreads HERE and Storygraph HERE.
