George Dunn’s Top Reads of 2024
2024 has been an absolute treat for any horror reader, but, most importantly (as I am the plucky and charismatic final girl in terms of my own horror consumption) it’s been a spectacular reading year for me. In theory this should be an equally spectacular list. Here’s the deal though, narrowing down the 100+ books […]

October TBR / Spooky Reads
Here’s my over the top October TBR. Those that have followed my Instagram for years already know, but for those new here, I always try for shorter reads for Spooky Season, but then I choose 900 anyway… with the job I have I will probably end up doing way more audiobooks too. I figured I’d put […]
Creepypastor: 20 Tales of Priests, Pastors and Parsons that are definitely going to Hell
The sub-genre of religious horror just so happens to be one of my favourites, and I have read lots of it. In doing so, I have found there’s a rather saturated sub-sub-genre (if you will) of reverends, vicars and nuns (so on and so forth) written in an adversarial role, and the sub-sub-genre in question… […]

Getting Started in the Cyberpunk Genre: Top Books to Read
[This is an updated version of a script for one of my YouTube videos, which can be found here.] The cyberpunk genre is one of my favorite genres, not only in books but also in visual media. I love the aesthetic you typically see within this genre in games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Deus Ex. […]
GUEST POST: The Essential Hero’s Toolkit by R.R. Virdi
There are three tools all heroes must possess. Know them by their shape and their names. They are the candle, cloak, and cane.
Magic swords, magical horns, and magic powers. Heroes throughout myth and modern fiction have had no end of magical macguffins to seek or draw upon. But when crafting Tales of Tremaine, I wanted to look back through history, and mythology, to what heroes have often had or needed, but perhaps not always got the spotlight.

The Summer I Turned Gritty
10 Scorching Must Reads For Your TBR This Summer Us horror fans call ourselves “The Halloween people,” but, to the best of my knowledge, we exist all year round: and so does great horror.
