Hey! If you're on this site, that means you're definitely in the market for some horrifying short stories ...
I KNOW A PLACE: REST STOP & OTHER DARK DETOURS
By Nat Cassidy
Featuring an introduction by @StephenKing
Out now, wherever books are sold!
🗝️📖👁️💀
Psst . . . hey, you . . . wanna go somewhere scary?
COMING MAY 5, 2026. Nat Cassidy's first collection of short fiction. Available wherever books are sold, in trade, e-book, and audio.
“A blood-soaked freakout that does for gas stations what JAWS did for beaches.”
—Kirkus
Well, this is a lovely surprise - thank you, @nypl!!
In 'When the Wolf Comes Home' by Nat Cassidy, actress Jess and a runaway boy flee his violent father. As bloodshed follows them, Jess realizes there's more to these grisly events than she could have ever imagined.

I'm beyond overjoyed by the momentous bit of news my editor shared with me: this weird, wild, 400+ page debut horror novel full of ghosts and serial killers and Kate Chopin quotes and existential midlife horror, has sold over 100,000 copies across formats. 🤯🤯🤯
So grateful to @RAforAll for her incredibly kind words and for this opportunity to contribute a li'l bonus essay to the WHY I LOVE HORROR Expanded Universe. Check it out!

Now that @StephenKing's THE LONG WALK has received an all-timer of an adaptation, and a new RUNNING MAN is on its way, I'm remembering how, like, 15 years ago I started writing a play adaptation of ROADWORK, envisioned as an evil OUR TOWN w/ Bachman as the Stage Manager . . .
We have the numbers and we have the power. Never forget that.
Also, never forget the magic four words: "Fuck you, make me."
The ONLY reason @Disney is bringing @jimmykimmel back is because the American people stood up, called out the executives by name, Disney's stock plummeted and Disney lost a lot of money.
Get it?
That's the playbook for the next three years of Trump.
YOU must be LOUDER than him.

When the Wolf Comes Home is a grotesque fairytale, which pulls at heartstrings without trying hard. It’s an emotional story of father-child relationship, peppered with gore and imaginative horror, where the afterword is as disarming & impactful as the novel itself. @natcassidy

Spowita klaustrofobicznym klimatem, który zacieśnia się jak lęk na zmysłach odbiorcy. Eksplorująca ludzkie demony, które ożywiają się wraz ze złem skrytym w nowojorskim wieżowcu. Przesiąknięta mrocznymi tajemnicami, które przerażają i ekscytują.

I just started this last night and I’m OBSESSED.
Haven't popped onto this toxic li'l sludgepit in a while, but might as well make El*n work for me while I'm here.
Looking for something to read this spooky season? Might I suggest: the horror-thriller WHEN THE WOLF COMES HOME (graciously dubbed "a classic" by @stephenking)?

And it's crazy-good. You'll float. All these dolls float down here. 😆

Or how about the ghost-y madness of MARY: AN AWAKENING OF TERROR (one of the Top 100 Horror Novels of All-Time, according to Audible)?
Or perhaps the creeping chills of NESTLINGS
(one of the best books of 2023, according to the NY Public Library)?
I think I'm gonna go updates only on this site. I won't delete my profile, cuz I don't wanna get hijacked, but I just can't stand that musky smell anymore, you know?
In the meantime hahaha there's always self promotion🙃🙃

but for now, feel those feelings, mourn, prove love, stay safe. do not let the hope i am espousing feel like a distraction from the very real, even deadly consequences of the terrible pit we are plummeting into. it is a horrible day, and FUTURE HOPE does not diminish that, BUT
