THE SOUND OF THE DARK by Daniel Church - Blog Tour Review @dannythechurch.bsky.social @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social

These buggers are always threatening us with a good time, but they never follow through....

The new novel from @dannythechurch.bsky.social is out now. You press PLAY. You hear the hiss of the tape. Then the echoes of something else. The sound of the dark. You press STOP. Too late.

Thank you to everyone at @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social who cam to the launch for project Hanuman - it was so much fun :-) We did sell out so now you’ll have to wait until the 11th November. Which feels unreal.

Happy Halloween! The Sound of the Dark is out now, today's your last chance to buy The Hollows on Amazon for only 99p, and tomorrow The Ravening's up for the British Fantasy Award! Quite a month... #horrorbooks #horrorfiction #thesoundofthedark #theravening #thehollows @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social

Halloween. Suppertime 🎃 BENNY ROSE THE CANNIBAL KING has become a holiday reread for some but new meals might wonder where to find this chompy guy now? In TEENAGE GIRLS CAN BE DEMONS, that's where 😈 So a big thanks to returning readers, a dinner bell to newcomers, and to everyone, Happy Halloween!

Here I am talking to the nice people at @freshfiction.bsky.social about The Sound of the Dark, Chinese food, Wales, egg custard tarts and more... #thesoundofthedark #thehollows #theravening #horrorbooks #horrorfiction @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social freshfiction.com/page.php?id=...

A mix of folk horror and true crime - if you’re me, that’s enough to draw you in - but what makes #TheSoundoftheDark by @dannythechurch.bsky.social special is the characters - especially relatable heroine Cally Darker. #BookSky TY to #NetGalley and @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social for the ARC. Review:

The Churchman Chattereth... Here I'm interviewed by the excellent Karen Docter at Karen's Killer Book Bench - talking horror fiction, Pepsi Max, killer slugs and more... www.karendocter.com/karens-kille...

We’re over the moon to share that Marianne Gordon’s ALISTAIR FALL AND THE RESTLESS DEAD has sold to Del Rey in a two book deal! Read more: www.ki-agency.co.uk/post/deal-an...

Who told the public that he embodied the system? Who was it that said they were the real conservatives, and who said this was *precisely* what Britain needed, very enthusiastically cheering all of that on every step of the way?

📚💀🔊 New Review 🔊💀📚 The Sound of the Dark by @dannythechurch.bsky.social "A perfectly paced descent into a chilling cosmic pit of madness, putting the truly sinister into true crime & making you forsake your headphones until you can be sure something unspeakable won’t happen when you put them on."

Thanks again to my total lack of organisation, I failed to trumpet Happy Goat Horror's awesome review of The Sound of the Dark! Thanks, Kayleigh, you're a star! happygoathorror.com/2025/09/30/t... #thesoundofthedark #thehollows #theravening #horrorbooks #horrorfiction @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social

I love Thompson's response (though I recommend turning this crap off as I have done) but whenever someone brings up the slop machine or calls it a revolution as Colbert does here, replying with "oh, the thing that convinces kids to kill themselves" is also an appropriate response.

Due to general disorgansation on my part, I'd completely forgotten to share this interview with The Story Blender where we talk about The Sound of the Dark, among other things. Many thanks for having me, Steve! #thesoundofthedark #horrorbooks #horrorfiction www.thestoryblender.com/past-recordi...

No, not Tuesday, but rather @dannythechurch.bsky.social's new novel, The Sound of the Dark.

Shaping up to be a real How It Started/How It Ended type year, isn’t it

Do none of these people actually read these newspapers and magazines? This isn’t even slightly out of character, they’ve been behaving like this for years.

5 days and counting! Nearly the weekend, then Tuesday the 28th will soon be upon us - and with it, The Sound of the Dark! And @timlebbon.bsky.social, for one, certainly recommends it... @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social #thesoundofthedark #thehollows #theravening #horrorfiction #horrorbooks

"For him that steals, or borrows and returns not, a book from its owner, let it change into a serpent in his hand and rend him. Let him be struck with palsy, and all his members blasted. Let him languish in pain..." Inscription from the library of the Monastery of San Pedro, in Barcelona.

Project Hanuman is out on November 11th. Today, I wanted to highlight that the gent that is @justinleeanderson.com gave it this summary: Battlestar Galactica crossed with The Matrix on a heavy dose of LSD. Which, honestly, will do for me. #sff #sciencefiction #scifi

Thrilled to see TEENAGE GIRLS CAN BE DEMONS under the absolutely perfect category of Final Girls Just Wanna Carve Pumpkins (Slashers) 🤩😈 thank you so much!!

Woohoo! The Hollows is a Kindle Monthly Deal all October. :) churchman72.wixsite.com/danielchurch...

The marvellous Kayleigh Dobbs at Happy Goat Horror reviews The Sound of the Dark! "A belter of a horror story... I loved it and would wholeheartedly recommend it to horror fans who enjoy splicing body horror with true crime and supernatural elements." happygoathorror.com/2025/09/30/t...

Okay, so it turns out Peter is a deeply sinister and unpleasant weirdo who leaves shitty handprints on everything he touches. But that doesn’t mean anyone who matters has to reflect upon anything we have done, and it certainly doesn’t reflect poorly on any of us. Fuck you.

A Game In Yellow by @haileypiperfights.bsky.social. This really is something just extraordinary. Like The King In Yellow, this book has done something to my head. In a good way. I think. Not for the first time, I am in awe and envy of this writer.

Thank you all for giving A GAME IN YELLOW a beautiful release day & a lovely launch at Little District Books. I'm floored by the well wishes, the gasps, the maddened yowling ... some of this might be in the walls, but perhaps it's also in ourselves 😌 I'm grateful you let mine creep in with them 💛
