Isolated on a windswept moor, the house has kept its secrets for centuries. But something's changed... www.catherinecavendish.com/2026/02/hous... Crossroad Press Audio & Digital Books #books #bookstagram #booktok #hauntings #ghosts #evilspirits #SuperNatural #paranormal

Matilda’s Retreat by @catcavendish.bsky.social is a wonderfully chilling tale of a house that has witnessed too much, and with recent renovations, its history has begun bleeding into the present. (1/4)

Just bought this darkly enticing collection - with a different take on Jack the Ripper, folklore, the supernatural and much more. I've loved every book I've read by David Niall Wilson so I'm looking forward to diving in. #darkfiction #supernatural #Folklore #horrorjunkie @davidniallwilson.com

Chapter 4: Liverpool Horror Book Con is going to be freaking massive 👻 Join 45 indie horror authors from the UK and Europe on 11 April for a day you won’t forget! We are delighted to announce @catcavendish.bsky.social as one of our attending authors. 🩸📚😱📚💙

Hospital. The word is enough to turn many of us into quivering jellies. No wonder so many of them are haunted - and none more so than Newsham Park. Here's one from their bulging archives... www.catherinecavendish.com/2025/11/the-... #hospital #NewshamPark #ghost #haunted @flametree.bsky.social

And now for something completely different. Perfect for Christmas, an alt history laced with humour and a number of dead bodies. This is Napoleonic Britain 1913. Twiggy Voo? mybook.to/TwiggyVoo #FridayReads #booksky #cosycrime #althistory

The most sensitive, beautifully executed version I have ever seen. Two and a half hours long but, for me, no sagging in the middle or dragging out of any element of the story. A damn fine film by any measure. #movies #horror #frankenstein #GuillermoDelToro
