The Thing (1982)
One of the greatest body horror movies of all time. The complete paranoia of who is real and who is the Thing.

Cover reveal for Chuck Wendig's THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS, listed as Coming April 29, 2025. On the cover a spiral staircase rises through eerie mist in a dim forest of crooked trees. A crow sits on the railing of the staircase. DEL REY is the publisher. Cover design by The Boland Design Co.
Text: A group of friends investigates the mystery of a strange staircase in the woods in this mesmerizing horror novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Accidents. Five high school friends are bonded by an oath to protect one another no matter what. Then, on a camping trip in the middle of the forest, they find something extraordinary: a mysterious staircase to nowhere. One friend walks up—and never comes back down. Then the staircase disappears. Twenty years later, the staircase has reappeared. Now the group returns to find the lost boy—and what lies beyond the staircase in the woods. . . .
As I am a writer and must peddle my wares lest I die in the abyss, hey! In April 2025, THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS emerges from the fog and the trees and if you wanted to pre-order it from your favorite local bookstore -- or get signed, personalized copies from Doylestown Bookshop -- that'd be nice.
