Helpmeet/ Naben Ruthnum / It’s 1900 in New York, Louise is ruined & her formerly wealthy, brothel-hopping husband is literally falling apart. Absolute body horror abounds. The corruption is rendered in vivid colour. And…there’s some romance in all the rot. @undertow.bsky.social #horror #bodyhorror

Black Flame/ @scumbelievable.bsky.social Ellen is a closeted Jewish woman assigned to restore an exploitation film thought to be destroyed by the Nazis & it’s cursed.

The Woods All Black/ @leemandelo.bsky.social/ Set in 1920s Appalachia, this novella starts with a slow burn before catching fire with shapeshifting, monsterfucking revenge action that shows that even with all the injustice & hate in the world, queer joy can survive. #horror #queerhorror #transhorror

On Sundays She Picked Flowers / Yah Yah Scohlfield / This Southern Gothic novel is an incredible debut! Lush, tactile, atmospheric, and horrifying in the way that only family can be- unfolds like a thorny blossom, beautiful and threatening. #horror #magicalrealism #hauntedhouse #blackauthors

The Marigold / @afsulli.bsky.social / Living in a city like Toronto where this literary horror is based, real estate horror is a living breathing thing already so I 🖤 the premise. Social commentary meets horror in this fantastic novel, highly recommend for fans of urban & ecological horror.

Every day I think about this passage
"One of the penalties of an ecological education is that one lives alone in a world of wounds. Much of the damage inflicted on the land is quite visible to laymen. An ecologist must either harden his shell and make believe that the consequences of science are none of his business, or he must be the doctor who sees the marks of death in a community that believes itself well and does not want to be told otherwise" quote by Aldo Leopold
