A Vintage Horror Serial — Coming Soon
There are places in rural communities where the trees grow too close together. Places where iron gates rust in the middle of the woods, largely forgotten, immortalized only in legend. Places where an asylum once burned… but the screams never stopped.
This spring, I’m releasing a new serialized horror story as a palate cleanser before launching my dark fantasy era this autumn with Putrescence in Her Peripherals. Starting next week, you’ll be able to enjoy Where the Winged Thing Waits, a vintage horror serial inspired by 1920s spiritualism, roadside carnivals, lost fortunes, and the legend of the Seven Gates of Hell.
Each week, a new chapter will drop here on the blog. It’ll be a casual release, perfect for fans of historic tales and ghost stories alike.
What to Expect
- A fake medium who may not be faking.
- A traveling carnival steeped in grief and deception.
- A hidden industrial fortune.
- Fundamentalists hunting a hellmouth.
- A burned asylum deep in the woods.
- And something winged that has been waiting a very long time.
Peep the Blurb:
Pennsylvania, 1927.
Clara has made a living pretending to talk to the dead — until a wealthy patron convinces her brother that the dead are really talking back. When they’re dragged on a half-baked treasure hunt, they stumble into a local legend that’s more than just lore.
The deeper they venture into this myth, the darker and more visceral it seems. Seven Gates. Six deaths. One potent sacrifice. Clara started her journey as a fraud, but she won’t even see it to the end unless she can find help in the world that exists beyond time and space.
Stay Tuned
If you enjoy dark fantasy, gothic Americana, occult intrigue, and stories that feel like they were printed in 1927 and forgotten in an attic trunk, this one’s for you. It’s The Mummy meets vintage farmhouse chic. Come along for the ride! It’s going to be casual, fun, and just as dark as you’ve likely to come to expect from my stories.
