Split Scream volume 8 is out TODAY through @tenebrouspress.bsky.social!
Absolute bargain! Get to the Tenebrous store, MOVE!
If you haven't gotten to all the SPLIT SCREAM books yet, now is your chance. They're all great, I might add (with absolutely zero bias in that statement whatsoever, why would you even ask)
Perfect time to snag some killer novelettes! Seriously one of the best series out there. Two weird stories you can read over a weekend or lazy afternoon? Hell yeah.
This sounds, frankly, fucking nuts.
Very much looking forward to it. 😆
Split Scream 8: Cursed Places.
Book post is the best post! @tenebrouspress.bsky.social knocks it out the park once again with the continuing Split Scream series,with @sonorataylor.bsky.social and @matthewtpritt.bsky.social.
Once upon a time, I got a degree in music composition. I’ve forgotten pretty much everything from that, so I’m sure this hymn is full of “mistakes,” but that was semi-intentional. Early American hymnals were also full of things that classically trained European composers would’ve found wrong (1/4)
"I don't mind her being here, but all she plays is Chopsticks..."
Cover for The Barre Incidents by me (Lauren Bolger). A statue’s face with a graveyard superimposed behind it. Cover art is by Matt Revert!
If you ever wished for small town Grief Horror, Romance, an embittered god with feral cryptid pets, and an alien with connections to Point Pleasant would collide... try reading The Barre Incidents! I'm putting links to Good Ordering Places in comments 🩵
As mentioned in the @tenebrouspress.bsky.social newsletter today, my book club add-in for Split Scream volume 8 is actual sheet music (and additional verses) for an in-story hymn to the Doe, the spirit that rules the land in which the story takes place. Here’s my folk version:
Bless his heart. And if he finds out, can he tell me as well?
Is it just me, or does the guy he's resurrecting look like Jeffery Epstein?
The curse is coming...

That's tremendous work, Keith! Well done, that man.
Dang. 😅
Not going to lie, your husband became a Scottish poet for a second there.

Okay, Mr. Winter, you have my attention, once again. #fantasy #horror

So, after a very long, short week (which did get better towards the end, ngl), we finally hit the weekend, like a drowning man finding a piece of driftwood to cling to.
Let the relaxation begin!
(Also getting reading, writing and doing my part in the house)
Cover art by Jenna Cha. In front of a smoky grey-green sky, an enormous dispassionate head rises from a desolate waste-scape and vomits up hundreds of dessicated corpses; to its left a small man floats in the air, curled in fetal position. Blurb: "Tenebrous went for broke here and this is by far their best. A painstaking, demented journey...The final pages will leave you staring into the abyss, where hope and horror blur together in the most devastating way." - The Next Best Book Club
What horror would you become to save the thing that matters most to you?
