Welcome back, my fellow creatives! October has come, and with it the joy of reading tales deliciously eerie on chilly autumn evenings.

So let us break for a wee spell from the lovely indie fiction to venture down paths dark and mysterious. I’ve got some fun frights recommended to me by other neato book reviewers as well as some spooky stories by authors I’ve not had a chance to taste before. Let us begin with The Final Girl Support Group by Grady Hendrix.

What does a reader experience in those opening pages, and what lessons can a writer take away in studying but a few paragraphs? Letโs find out!
If you do not see the audio player above, you can access the podcast here.
Many thanks to Tammy over at Books, Bones, and Buffy for putting me on to this read! You can check out her kickin’ book review here.
Stay tuned–more sweet scares are on the way. x
Read on, share on, and write on, my friends!

Thanks for the post!

๐ฑ๐จ๐ฎ Beautifully analyzed, but not one for me, I’m afraid! I stopped doing the slasher thing at Nightmare on Elm Street (how long ago was that?).

That was a while ago! And I don’t blame you. Bo and I watched John Carpenter’s original THE FOG last night; I forgot how effective a good atmospheric ghost movie can be!

Every Halloween I watch a couple of horror movies with Hawklad. Started off with Hammer Horror movies, all very tame but fabulously atmospheric. I fear he is moving onto more modern options now. Love your readings, so Wonderful.
