Did someone say #gastrohorror sale? Yes please!

For the evening #horror crew!

Read my story, "The Lingering Oil," about an absolute loser trying to fix up his family's burger restaurant while confronting ghosts--both literal and figurative--of the past. Plus a bunch more horror and some great recipes!

It's National #CookingDay, so we're doing a 24-hour sale on Cursed Cooking, our fun little cookbook/horror anthology. 50% off ebooks and 15% hardback copies of Cursed Cooking. Order now at cateyepress.com/store

I need to make an irrational and impulsive decision

Have never seen or heard of this before, but I’m INCREDIBLY excited.

Happy book birthday @raforall.bsky.social! 🖤

Was no one going to tell us that Blumhouse was making a mummy movie and that it comes out NEXT YEAR?? m.imdb.com/title/tt3261...

🙌🙌🙌

I wrote the introduction for the Horror Writers Association's Latinx Heritage in Horror Month series. Please read it and the work of the authors we are celebrating all month. Thank you HWA for this opportunity. horror.org/an-introduct...

[Rec] is one of the best found footage horror films I’ve seen in a long time. Question is… are the sequels any good?

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

Congrats to @cateyepress.bsky.social and fellow #PenandPier writer @uteorgassa.bsky.social on a fantastic new anthology, MODERN MUMMIES! That’s a wrap!

They're here. They're signed by Joe Koch and Silver. They're only ten bucks. @horrorsong.blog @blacksugarpill.bsky.social

RFK Jr. is objectively pro-disease, pro-illness and pro-child death.

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading. Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own. Just. Keep. Reading.

Fun fact: this is also a power you get if you read This World Belongs to Us: An Anthology of Horror Stories about Bugs from @frombeyondpress.bsky.social

Responses have been sent out for our October Oddities Microfiction Contest. We want to again thank everyone who submitted. There were a lot of great stories in there, and we're very excited to share the three winning selections. Get ready to get odd! #horrorsky #writingsky

If you're an HWA member who woke up this morning & thought "I should recommend some short non-fiction to the Stoker recommended reading list," allow me to point you to this 3126 word essay I wrote for Nightmare Magazine (Aug 2025) - "Plumbing the Depths: Archaeology in Horror Fiction."

For the new followers, my first book, Millennial Nasties, all about 2000s horror, is available in hard copy, ebook, and audiobook formats from @encyclopub.bsky.social encyclopocalypse.com/products/mil...

Love a good jump scare when it’s truly unexpected. But if the movie is completely reliant on them for the scares and uses them repeatedly… they get old quick.

Mysterious locations? I've heard of some.... back our book and find out all about em! ;-) #ttrpg

"Sir, this is a [HOWLING OF MILLIONS OF DEMONS OF HELL]."

Oh hell yeah! 🥞🥞🥞

It’s a @thenosleeppodcast.bsky.social kind of day

Still waiting for the bookmarks to appear on this site…. In the meantime, does anyone have any cool physical/reading bookmarks they’d like to share? This is mine from 3rd or 4th grade that I still use on a regular basis.

Apparently today is National "I Love Food" Day, so I figured it’s as good a time as any to reshare my massive #GastroHorror Guide! It’s always a work in progress, so if there is anything y’all want added, let me know! #HorrorSky #Horror sarahstubbssays.com/gastro-horro...

Looking for a little bop this morning? Then how about this one?

*Steps up to the mic* * Big inhale* *Music starts* “They’re here, they’re now, They’ll make you say wow! They’re mummies! They’re modern modern mummies!” *jazz hands for the finale* *applause/millions of books being sold* www.cateyepress.com/modern-mummies

We need your support in the next 3 days, before the fall of eternal night. Help us breathe new stories that keep us alive, each word and phrase building the monster’s body, the one who rends and tears and protects us from darkness. kck.st/4mIkEm1

This is absolutely our vibe!

It's starting to get a little cold here in Minnesota, but it's still technically summer... So what better way to wrap up the season than with your very own copy of Modern Mummies!

AUTUMN APPROACHES

Yo, preordering from an indie press is the ultimate cool move. Not only does it help support small business directly & keep vital capital flowing early in the process; it also makes you look like a tastemaking badass who leads the crowd rather than follows🖤☠️

Honestly, it’s a crime there’s not a box set for the Pumpkinhead movies.

I firmly reject any attempts to silence the brave, smart, and well cultured masses who want to talk about HAUNTED HOUSE OF PANCAKES!!! See it at: Dreamland Cinemas in Sacramento on 9/10 Halloween International Film Festival HorrOrigins Film Festival And buy your special edition Blu-ray today!!!
