October is the month to read folk horror of the quiet kind.

Harrowfield isn't just available to purchase via mybook.to/Harrowfield, it's also on Kindle Unlimited. And if you've read it, I'd love it if you leave a review. ❤

Tucked away between a host of larger graves in Pere Lachaise cemetery, I came across this simple one - with a feather.
And see who I was shadowed by...
The Haunting Of Wounded Birds, my coming-of-age folk horror is available for preorder now! #booksky

Book cover. A young jackdaw on a dark background with fly agaric mushrooms - with a small gravestone behind the book surrounded by autumn leaves and a feather on the top.

A single crow with greenery tagged legs on a flat tombstone.

Craig Wallwork @craigwallwork.bsky.social · 9d

If a book allows you a reprieve for just a moment from world chaos, crack that spine and fall into the pages. Here’s a few writers that might take your mind to other places… @craigclevenger.bsky.social

Thanks Gabino!

Looking for something a bit more extreme?
Maybe my Father Of Lies compendium will be what you seek! Based on real events from real research, this has 3 cult/cosmic horror novellas & plenty of scenes that'll keep you wake at night!

Morning, Gabino.
I have cut ties with my publisher. Long time coming, sure, but in the meantime these books very shortly will no longer be available. Get ‘em while you still can.

A tentacle with a mind of its own, an ancient witch, a cult, a ravenous trip to the bookstore, and a true story that took place in Savannah… if you haven’t read my horror collection, start right Next Door.
Thank you Gabino & #FridayReads
