Some horror novels terrify through spectacle. Others rely on relentless violence and shocking twists. The Devil’s Pocketbook distinguishes itself because it recognizes that grief can be more horrifying than any monster. Ross Jeffery has crafted a novel where supernatural horror grows organically from emotional devastation and is as heartbreaking as it is unsettling.Continue Reading

Tyler Jones’ Arson by Design is a collection obsessed with destruction. Not simply physical destruction, but emotional self-immolation. Again and again, these stories return to people who knowingly step toward ruin and strike the match themselves even while understanding the cost. Whether through grief, obsession, guilt, ambition, or desperation, Jones fills these pages with characters who participate in their own undoing. The result is a stellar collection of horror that feels deeply intimate beneath its sometimes supernatural surface. We aren’t only facing monsters. We are facing the human instinct to burn our lives down in search of meaning or absolution. In some cases, even seeking escape.Continue Reading

Dopefoot by Joshua Millican (Teleportasm, Deeper Than H
ell) is a novel that felt feral in my hands, in the best ways. It resists polish and easy categorization. Instead, it burrows into something raw and deeply human. What initially reads as pure chaos, in characters, in language, and in structure, reveals itself to be deliberate. I might go as far as saying it is precise in how it disorients the reader. Dopefoot wants you off-balance.

Shortwave Publishing (May 2026)
Reviewed by Abby Wolf
I Know A Place: Rest Stop and Other Dark Detours from powerhouse Nat Cassidy (USA Today bestselling author) is not your traditional short story collection. It is more like being handed a map with certain locations circled in blood-red ink. These are the places you are warned not to visit, yet you cannot resist. Each story has its own setting, but they are not just mere backdrops. They are pressure points, spaces where something has gone wrong in ways that feel surreal yet deeply human. Cassidy understands that horror is not just about what lurks in the shadows. It is about why those shadows exist in the first place.
