I’ve got 4(!) books releasing in 2026. One’s still a secret and will be revealed soon. As much touring as I’m going to do in support of CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 4, the easiest and best way for you to get a signed copy is still preordering through my local bookstore here: linktr.ee/adamcesare

"Trail Cam" is one of the scariest stories I've written. Thanks to @annvandermeer.bsky.social and @reactorsff.bsky.social for publishing it. And thanks to @joshmalerman.bsky.social for inspiring me to write it. #horror #horrorstory #horrorfiction

This 4 screen arthouse goes on forever. I’ve been in here for days. Left a big pile of clothes in the ticket booth.

Nice to see that the MERCY HOUSE paperback has begun to hit the Amzn charts… But: there are *zero* ghosts in this book.

Good hanging out with this crew!

Moderated a talk with Nick Cutter tonight to launch his (insanely good) new novel THE DORIANS. You should pick up a copy right now so he can have a great first week of sales. Also, it was hot so brought out the shorts. 🩳

Cover Reveal: My most extreme book, MERCY HOUSE, hits paperback and audiobook for the first time, just in time for Halloween. Check out the new Matt Ryan Tobin cover and preorder here: linktr.ee/adamcesare

One year ago the CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD movie opened in theaters. Producer Pete Harris just texted me this picture from our time on set. It gets goofier the longer you look.

Quick little piece of book fan art as I make my way towards the end of this one!

Oh snap! The day has finally arrived. Officially licensed Clown in a Cornfield Frendo masks now available for preorder from @trickortreatstudio.bsky.social

Thank you!!!

May the 4th (Clown in a Cornfield novel) be with you. No, really, please place a preorder today.

The vendor pages have been updated so I think it’s okay to announce that Matt Godfrey will be narrating the new audiobook edition of VIDEO NIGHT and Jesse Vilinsky will officially be returning for CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 4.

Today is Independent Bookstore Day! Support your local brick & mortar. And if you’re in the Philly area come see me Thrillerdelphia from 3-5! And then maybe at the Doom bar after!

I had a lot of fun painting this little zombie painting from it!

I can watch zombies pull themselves from styrofoam-topped graves all day. Which is good, because that’s the bulk of THE CURSE OF THE SCREAMING DEAD (1982) aka CURSE IF THE CANNIBAL CONFEDERATES.

I’ve got two books for preorder rn. CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 4: LIGHTS! CAMERA! FRENDO! is the next in my award-winning, bestselling slasher series. VIDEO NIGHT is a remastered rerelease of my cult hit debut, w/ a new intro by Stephen Graham Jones. Get em: linktr.ee/adamcesare

Saw Jorma Taccone’s OVER YOUR DEAD BODY, which is part WAR OF THE ROSES, part “what if STRAW DOGS was hilarious?” Features maybe the best shotgun beheading of the decade.

Who will be Amazon rating/review number 666 on CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 3? 😈

Vincent D'Onofrio plays a character named Lobotomy in this movie. Five stars.

If you’re in the Philadelphia area, I’m going to be interviewing Lloyd Kaufman this Friday, April 17th at Thrillerdelphia in Manayunk. One lucky audience member will have their head crushed.

FINISHED: "Tribesmen" by @adamcesare.bsky.social www.goodreads.com/review/show/... This is my first re-read of this great little meta #horror #book! I "what if an evil dead styled possession plot happened during the making of an Italian jungle cannibal movie?" is a hell of a pitch! It goes hard

ICYMI: Writer @adamcesare.bsky.social and artist David Stoll’s @darkhorse.com series Dead Mall is headed to the silver screen! A few years back, Adam Cesare and I spoke about the gripping and phenomenally nightmarish comic! www.freaksugar.com/adam-cesare-...

Now at 662… the number of the beast approaches.

No film exudes more Midwest menace than HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER

Have you read CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 3: THE CHURCH OF FRENDO? Well the book’s currently 6 ratings away from 666 ratings/reviews on Amazon. You should leave one.

THE NESTING (1981), also known by the (better?) title PHOBIA, is an Upstate NY gothic about a writer that *feels* like an adaptation of an 80s horror novel, but isn’t.

Got to see FACES OF DEATH early, did a quick review: www.tiktok.com/t/ZTkkD8ypm/

Do you like horror books? Today is a good day to preorder the new edition of VIDEO NIGHT (intro by Stephen Graham Jones) and/or CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 4: LIGHTS! CAMERA! FRENDO! Signed options available.

Preordered the new FACES OF DEATH 4K this week, seeing the remake in theaters next week. Great month for getting added to a watchlist or something.

Thanks to Variety (and Bloody and Fango) for announcing DEAD MALL is getting a movie adaptation. Written by @michaelvarrati.bsky.social and produced by our friends at Not the Funeral Home. If you don’t have the Dark Horse comic (art by @stollcomics.bsky.social), grab a copy (signed in my bio).

Japan in the 1970s really had blood figured out. Blood splatter, blood spray, squibs… no era/world cinema has ever topped them.

Hope you’re having a good weekend. Preorder VIDEO NIGHT (throw CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 4 in your cart while you're at it, too). Repost for good luck. linktr.ee/adamcesare

Today I talked to high schoolers about writing horror books and…

Shot on Super 8, 1989’s horror anthology THE BASEMENT has its ups and downs. But few anthology segments go harder than this one: a Halloween take on A Christmas Carol where Scrooge is menaced by a witch, a demon, a mummy, and… a California Raisin.

I have preorderable books from different publishers. So while other authors have nice publisher-approved graphics… I have “graphic design my passion” 3 eligible books (actually 5 but 2 haven’t been announced yet…): —CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD 3 paperback —CLOWN 4 hardcover —new VIDEO NIGHT paperback

I think vertical videos get cropped on Blue Sky but, eh, you get the gist:
