About the book
NO ONE ESCAPES THE HOLLER—AND WHAT HUNTS IN THE HILLS HAS TEETH.
Greg Gallogly swore he’d never go back. Leaving his Kentucky hometown meant escaping the violence, the curse, and the monsters buried in its past. But when his brother’s stolen bike turns up in a gang-run chop shop, one reckless decision drags him and Tanya—a sharp-tongued drifter with her own ghosts—into a fight that leads straight back to Haint’s Hollow.
Sheriff Hunter Gallogly thought the nightmare ended with the mine collapse. He was wrong. A badly burned man has been found alive in a wolves’ den, and bodies are piling up again in the mountains. Whatever haunts the holler isn’t finished—and this time, it’s hunting the Gallogly family.
As lawmen, outlaws, and something far darker collide, Greg and Hunter are pulled into a blood feud that stretches from the backroads to the grave.
Holler is a brutal Appalachian horror tale of family, vengeance, and survival—perfect for fans of Stephen King’s ’Salem’s Lot, Brian Keene, and grim rural noir.

About the book
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The tale of The Wolf Gift continues ... It is winter at Nideck Point and for Reuben Golding, now infused with the Wolf Gift, this promises to be a season like no other.
Oak fires burn in the stately flickering hearths, and the community organizes its annual celebration of music and pageantry. Reuben is preparing to honor an ancient Midwinter festival with his fellow Morphenkinder—a secret gathering that takes place deep within the verdant recesses of the surrounding forests.
However, Reuben is soon distracted by a ghost. Tormented, imploring, and unable to speak, it haunts the halls of the great mansion, drawing him toward a strange netherworld of new spirits, or “ageless ones.” And as the swirl of Nideck’s preparations reaches a fever pitch, they reveal their own dark magical powers.

On New England’s shifting shores, Ptolema is drawn into a conflict where rival agencies battle across the edges of reality.
Black Helicopters
Dystopian · Dark Fantasy · Occult Horror
Our take
On New England’s shifting shores, Ptolema is drawn into a conflict where rival agencies battle across the edges of reality. Two experimental sisters flee through the chaos, pursued by forces tied to ancient horrors. With 4.0 stars on Amazon and over one thousand Goodreads ratings, Black Helicopters delivers an unsettling, atmospheric chapter in the Tinfoil Dossier series.
Choose your retailer
About the book
This expanded version of the World Fantasy Award–nominated original dark fantasy novella is the award-winning author's definitive edition.
Just as the Signalman stood and faced the void in Agents of Dreamland, so it falls to Ptolema, a chess piece in her agency's world-spanning game, to unravel what has become tangled and unknowable.
Something strange is happening on the shores of New England. Something stranger still is happening to the world itself, chaos unleashed, rational explanation slipped loose from the moorings of the known. Two rival agencies stare across the Void at one another. Two sisters, the deadly, sickened products of experiments going back decades, desperately evade their hunters.
An invisible war rages at the fringes of our world, with unimaginable consequences and Lovecraftian horrors that ripple centuries into the future.

About the book
BLOOD RUNS DEEP IN THE HOLLER—AND SOMETHING HUNGRY WAITS IN THE DARK.
When the Haint’s Rest Mine caves in, eighteen men are trapped underground. But what crawls out of the dark isn’t human.

Something ancient is feeding in the mountains. Something tied to the Gallogly family’s past.
As lawmen and outlaws clash, blood ties and backwoods justice won’t be enough to stop what’s coming. Because once night falls in the hollow, no one is safe.

Trapped in the dark with no way up, fear becomes a physical force.
From Below
Horror · Occult Horror · Supernatural Horror
Our take
Trapped in the dark with no way up, fear becomes a physical force. When a deep sea dive team explores the long-lost wreck of the SS Arcadia, Cove expects history, not a presence that still hunts inside the hull. This claustrophobic horror novel blends underwater isolation, creeping dread, and relentless survival tension as the ocean presses closer and something below refuses to let them leave.
Choose your retailer
About the book
No light. No air. No escape.
Hundreds of feet beneath the ocean's surface, a graveyard waits...
Years ago, the SS Arcadia vanished without a trace during a routine voyage. Though a strange, garbled emergency message was broadcast, neither the ship nor any of its crew could be found. Sixty years later, its wreck has finally been discovered more than three hundred miles from its intended course...a silent graveyard deep beneath the ocean's surface, eagerly waiting for the first sign of life.
Cove and her dive team have been granted permission to explore the Arcadia's rusting hull. Their purpose is straightforward: examine the wreck, film everything, and, if possible, uncover how and why the supposedly unsinkable ship vanished.
But the Arcadia has not yet had its fill of death, and something dark and hungry watches from below. With limited oxygen and the ship slowly closing in around them, Cove and her team will have to fight their way free of the unspeakable horror now desperate to claim them.

In a dying town haunted by teenage suicides, grief mutates into something supernatural.
Negative Space
Horror · Occult Horror · Psychological Horror · Supernatural Horror
Our take
In a dying town haunted by teenage suicides, grief mutates into something supernatural. Online obsessions and occult symbols pull a generation toward oblivion. B. R. Yeager’s Negative Space is a hypnotic horror novel that peers into the digital void where death, desire, and transcendence merge. A modern classic of dread and fractured beauty.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In the gray town of Kinsfield, a wave of teenage suicides ripples through a generation already lost in screens, pills, and digital ghosts. As grief seeps into every message board and conversation, reality begins to dissolve. Strings appear in the sky. Shadows whisper. Something ancient has awakened in the static between life and death.
Told through fractured voices and haunting online confessions, Negative Space by B. R. Yeager captures the disintegration of youth culture at the edge of apocalypse. What begins as suburban despair unravels into occult obsession and transcendent horror.
Praised for its hypnotic style and conceptual daring, Negative Space is a visionary work of contemporary horror that blurs the boundary between the physical and the spiritual.
