Against a cream background with black spiderwebs and spiders, the title reads: “Alder Van Otterloo on Cozy Horror Kidlit.” Below that, a quote from Alder reads: "I find horror movies and books extremely cathartic and comforting! It offers a nice, closed arc for difficult feelings, and I find it’s a really powerful processing tool for some people’s activated nervous systems." At the bottom are the covers of two books by Alder: CATTYWAMPUS and A TOUCH OF RUCKUS. In between the two book covers is a Publishers Marketplace deal report dated May 28, 2025 for a book “Coming Soon” from Alder entitled MERRY HOUSE. The deal report reads: “Author of THE BEAUTIFUL SOMETHING ELSE Alder Van Otterloo’s MERRY HOUSE, in which siblings’ attempts to escape their estranged father’s transphobia and ableism land them in a sleepaway camp for troubled youths, a deceptively idyllic seaside mansion harboring a terrible secret: the house is alive and hungry, to Kade Dishmon at Holiday House, for publication in 2027, by Sheyla Knigge at High Line Literary Collective (world). In the center is “Exclusive Interview” with an arrow pointing to: https://www.sarahsteinbacher.com/blog/interview-alder-van-otterloo

To cross it without an invitation was a violation of the Great Laws, laws my siblings reveled in breaking. And me… I did not want to break; I wanted to belong. I smoothed the heavy wool of the coat I had stolen from a clothesline, tucked my extra long limbs into the shadows of the fabric, and waited.

Inside, I could hear the clink of a teacup. I was at a limit—reaching a level of loneliness where the pain of being ‘other’ finally outweighed the fear of being destroyed. If I stayed with my family, I would wither in the cold silence of my kin, who knew only hunger and never names. I could feel my pulse, a rhythmic thrumming, slowly reaching the frequency of a frantic heart. I was ready to settle for the smallness of a life measured in minutes.

It took like 70 pages for anything truly scary to happen. Then things went quiet again, mostly, until around page 175, when it amped up again. Not done yet, so that's all I can say for now.

A key.
 Not thunder. Not light.
 Recognition—pure and immediate—as if the building had just seen a master badge.
 Bob looked at the Liaison.
 Not angry.
 Just done.
 “You don’t get to separate her,” he said quietly. “You don’t get to educate her pain. And you don’t get to tell me what doors I’m allowed to open in a system I’ve been keeping from collapsing with duct tape and prayer.”
 The Liaison’s voice went thin. “Bob, you cannot—”
 Bob took my hand.
 Not dramatic. Not heroic.
 Just… a decision made with compassion.
 His fingers wrapped around mine—warm, steady, real—and the whole room changed shape around that simple contact.
 Adil moved with us immediately, like they’d been waiting for the moment Bob stopped negotiating with furniture.
 Behind us, the Liaison’s voice sharpened into pure managerial panic.
 “Bob. Bob, you cannot—”
 Adil called back, sweet as syrup, without breaking stride:
 “Bless your heart, yes he can!”
 And we left Upper Administration mid-sentence.
