I’ve never preordered a book so fast... @mathildazeller.bsky.social has an Indigenous horror debut, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU IN THE DARK, coming out October 2026!!! I became an instant fan when I read her short story "Kushtuka" in Never Whistle at Night. SO EXCITED! #booksky #indigenous #books

This book was both the easiest and hardest thing I've ever written.

It's also the least made up thing I've written.

Quyanaq to @tornightfire for your faith in it, my agents for your advocacy, the incredible designers of the cover, and all the phenomenal people who said nice things about it.

Book Deals: Week of November 3, 2025 Vintage lands a Shining-inspired horror anthology, Ron Chernow sets his next doorstopper biography, and more.

"The former centers on the Kushtuka, a creature who takes the form of a loved one, and a young woman whose sister goes missing from her remote Alaskan town." HOLY SHIT. My childhood in Alaska was FULL of Kushtuka ghost stories, so I'm gonna be FIRST IN LINE for @mathildazeller.bsky.social's book.

“Kushtuka” by @mathildazeller.bsky.social in H&O’s #TheGhostBoxIV

How you hoped it would end.

Indeed @ttbrader.bsky.social similar in the devouring, but this time it’s for revenge/justice and not, um, supper.

I need to pay more attention to the graphics on the cover of the stories…

Kushtuka by Mathilda Zeller in H&O's Ghost Box

Shared themes with yesterday's 'Window': smiles that distort faces, teeth that tear flesh ...

"...if it weren't flesh & blood itself, it wouldn't be able to do, whatever it just did."

Massage School update: I can now tell with very solid accuracy whether someone is right handed or left handed when they're laying facedown and unmoving

It's Sherlockian and I'm (literally lol) feeling it
