Coming of age

Review: Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix

January 4, 2025 by George Dunn Leave a Comment

Synopsis: They call them wayward girls. Loose girls. Girls who grew up too fast. And they’re sent to Wellwood House in St. Augustine, Florida, where unwed mothers are hidden by their families to have their babies in secret, to give them up for adoption, and most important of all, to forget any of it ever […]

FLASHBACK REVIEW: The Troop by Nick Cutter

October 28, 2024 by Seanchalant Leave a Comment

SYNOPSIS Once a year, scoutmaster Tim Riggs leads a troop of boys into the Canadian wilderness for a three-day camping trip; a tradition as comforting and reliable as a good ghost story and a roaring bonfire. But when an unexpected intruder — shockingly thin, disturbingly pale, and voraciously hungry — stumbles upon their campsite, Tim […]

October 4, 2024 by George Dunn Leave a Comment

Synopsis: “The Night Cyclist” by award-winning author Stephen Graham Jones is a horror novelette about a middle-aged chef whose nightly bicycle ride home is interrupted by an unexpected encounter. There must be no compulsion to hide the bodies. Otherwise I’d have never found them. Review: Every now and then, I need to remind myself that […]
