Delighted to share for the first time, the cover to my forthcoming horror novel, CHOKING HAZARDS🚬, courtesy of Luke Bird, the 2026 British Book Awards winner for Designer of the Year. Here's the blurb from publishers Dead Ink (and the pre-order link is in the comments below): Someone's trying to hide a crime... and they're using Madeline's body to do it. As if living with the consequences of her vindictive ex-husband's manipulation wasn't enough to have her questioning reality, strange objects have begun to manifest on the back of her tongue. A cigarette butt. Someone else's tooth. A set of severed fingers... CHOKING HAZARDS 🚬 is a grisly, stomach-turning blitz of a horror-thriller from author Michael Sellars. Perfect for readers who love Grady Hendrix and Paul Tremblay and available to pre-order now! Link below! Support your indie creators!

Born on this day: Bernie Wrightson (1948-2017). His illustrated Frankenstein is a stunning piece of work; the detail and composition are incredible. A supernaturally talented artist.

When horror fans heard Paris Hilton had been cast in the 2005 House of Wax remake there were disgruntled rumblings. The studio's marketing department responded by promoting the movie using the tagline 'See Paris Die'.

The marketing campaign worked pretty well: House of Wax made more than $70m against a $40m budget. – at Garston, England

The practical FX, courtesy of KNB, really hold up in this one. – at Huyton-with-Roby, England

People always bring up Lawrence of Arabia, 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Godfather when talking about great scene transitions and match cuts in movies. I can only assume these people have never seen Final Destination 3.😁

Thirteen Ghosts, released on this day in 2001, has its critics, but I think it's a fun horror flick. Yes, it's essentially a string of 'kills' strung together with a silly plot, and it takes an 'everything but the kitchen sink' approach, but it offers great per-minute value.

Stephen King didn't like the movie Graveyard Shift, adapted from his short story and released on this day in 1990, calling it "a quick exploitation picture", but it has its fans. If you're looking to fill 90 minutes with a splash of horror silliness, you could do worse.

The Terminator, released on this day in 1984, had such a tight budget, director James Cameron often resorted to a guerilla filmmaking technique called 'run-and-gun' where the filmmakers avoid expensive permits by shooting street scenes very quickly before the police show up.

Wishing Andrew Neiderman a very happy 86th birthday. As well as being a prolific horror writer, Neiderman has written many books under the pseudonym V.C. Andrews, extending the legacy of Flowers in the Attic scribe Virginia Andrews. Here's the 1986 Arrow Books edition of Neiderman's Imp.

There are some really inventive monster designs.

Thinner, released on this day in 1996, is a solid adaptation of a solid Stephen King novel (published under his Richard Bachman nom de plume). Tom Holland keeps things creepy and pacy, and there are enough tongue-in-cheek moments to make this feel like a Creepshow feature film.

I highly recommend the audio book version of Thinner read by Joe Mantegna.
