Oh, the Horror!
Oh, the Horror! | Chris Bartholomew
11 posts
The cries coagulated, the whimpers ceased, the breathing stopped. The cloaked man stood up, looked deeply into the camera, his knife dripping with sorrows and promise, ambition and dreams demolished. Saul stood straight, quiet. His mouth was rigid, his muscles tensed. He looked hard, directly ahead at the immobile figure hanging loosely from the radiator, swimming in a stagnant cherry river. -Excerpt from The Audition by Joshua Brown.

Another #Scareathlon #TeamSlaughter mini game. My horror novel would be called: 🦴Killing Black Bones 🦴 That‘s a horrible name for a book! What would yours be? Feel free to repost, my #TeamSlaughter peeps, it‘s worth 1point. #PointsTotal-84

1. My horror themed bookmark baggie which I had been desperately searching for. I like a different character each time I finish a book.
2. Right after it was mentioned on @ReadingGlasses it was the first time I'd heard of it
3. The nachos from Owls Nest pretty bomb, but I don't think they are famous
4. 130AM the first time, 5AM I got out of bed
5. Several books, vitamins, chapstick, clock

“How this will work:
Each book will be read in daily chapters. Between books, a week will be allowed for a break and discussion. New books will be voted on at the start of the previous books so @TheGhastlyGrimoire can take a break too. There will be three books in each selection, and those not chosen may show up again.”

First vote will begin later today and reading will commence next Wednesday. To vote...

Continued in comments!

athorne Voting will take place in the selection post and on the FB page (which can be found at http://facebook.com/spookyfriendsbookclub). Reading will commence one week from today. #spookyfriendsbookclub (edited) 6y
FlowerFairy I‘d like to join in if it isn‘t too late 6y
athorne @FlowerFairy it isn‘t! Voting will begin in a few hours and then reading begins next Wednesday! 6y

This year, I had the pleasure of reading Stephen Graham Jones, John Langan, and Ania Ahlborn for the first time. Their House of Windows ( best literary Twilight Zone-y story out there), Demon Theory ( for flipping the script, but managing to still homage horror) and Brother (for leaving me with not the thrill but the shock of horror that such bad things occurred) were my favorite books of horror this year.

TobeyTheScavengerMonk People Lights and The Fisherman are on my list of things to do in 2018! 6y
Reggie @TobeyTheScavengerMonk They‘re both great, and have nothing Nick Cuttery about them, so you‘re safe. Lol 6y
sprainedbrain I‘m saving this for future reference... I‘m always looking for horror that‘s legit scary. Also, I love that you put Tampa in this category! 😂 6y

Reggie @sprainedbrain I did because even though it started out funny, by the end I felt I had read something written by the devil. That woman had no remorse and what happens to that kid and his dad was pretty horrific. 6y
sprainedbrain @Reggie I know... that woman was absolutely the scariest main character I read all year. 6y
RohitSawant So many of these are on my TBR! Glad to know you enjoyed them. 6y
Reggie Stay away from Little Heaven by Nick Cutter. That‘s the only one that was less than good. He waits until half the book is over to throw in his usual Nick Cutter magic. @rohit-sawant 6y
