Writing Challenge Day 1
It’s day one of my annual writing challenge! Today’s prompt: “a story about something spooky that hides in the piles of raked leaves that you see in autumn. It can somehow move between piles of leaves without being seen. “
Interview: Posthaste Manor
Today on PLM Talks, I chat with Jolie Toomajan and Carson Winter about their cowritten haunted house book Posthaste Manor — out October 18th.
Posthaste Manor: Novel Review
Posthaste Manor was a wild, beautifully bizarre book. It was like touring the house myself, with a dark and mysterious guide, learning its secrets and shivering.
Edenville: Novel Review
With deliciously balanced parts of horror and humour, I couldn’t put it down and loved drowning in the vibrant lore Rebelein built around Edenville and its inhabitants.
A Haunting in Venice: Movie Review
The movie hit predictable plot points — the séance hinting that the ghost didn’t die of natural causes, murder, suspicions, the eventual reveal — but I still had a lot of fun!
Pre-Approved for Haunting: Collection Review
Barb puts a lot of care in every tale, in the table of contents order, and themes throughout creating a delicious shivery read for the coming spooky season.
Werewolves Within: Movie Review
I felt like the horror and comedy was a little underdone. It didn’t make me laugh out loud, though I was amused at many scenes, nor did the horror give me any chills. So I guess it wasn’t that amazing of a whodunnit, but it was still a fun movie to have for a night in.
Talk To Me: Movie Review
The plot was well paced, the atmosphere/suspense well done, and the gore effective. I was entertained the whole film and left really happy, so I definitely would recommend this film to my fellow horror fans.
