Fans of Irish horror really need to check out Neal Sharpson's THE BURIAL TIDE, just published by Zando. Set on a remote & cursed windswept island, with no children, the Irish tourist board aren't going to be promoting this desolate location!

Here's some WATER DAMAGE at the Cafe Oto in East London last night. The bastard sons and daughters of Spacemen 3 drone on and on and on. Repitition. Repeat. Repitition. Drone music taken to extremes in one 45 minute song.

In my latest review for Horror DNA, Jonathan Butcher makes an impressive move into mainstream horror with THE COLD VISITOR, after years specialising in Extreme Horror & Splatterpunk. This book features a seriously nasty curse!

Ginger Nuts may have left the X building, but my YA & Middle Grade horror reviewing lives on. Here's my latest roundup.

Ginger Nuts has left X but my YA page lives on elsewhere. In my latest article, I take a deep dive into my favourite shortlisted titles from the Bram Stoker Award over the last decade. The brilliant Amy Lukavics leads the charge.
