Such a wonderful review, Casey, thank you so much! And HONEY! Even more honored to get Honey approval. Is that her *licking* Nightjars in the second photo? All the stars.

After scaring myself silly with @michaelwehunt.bsky.social's "The October Film Haunt," Wehunt returns with the perfect Halloween read. This time, I am bracing myself for more spooks and scares. #writingcommunity #writerslift #writers #readers #horror #halloweenreads #readmorebooks #booktok #booksky

Happy book birthday to NIGHTJARS by @michaelwehunt.bsky.social! I interviewed Michael about his terrifying new novel, along with @brianevenson.bsky.social (whose PHANTOM LIMB drops Oct 13). If you want to go in blind on NIGHTJARS, watch this interview after reading - but get this excellent book!

@michaelwehunt.bsky.social’s “Nightjars” is out today! This is one of my favorite books of the year! Get it now wherever books are sold! You can thank me later. 💙📚🩸✨🫙

A 5⭐️ book review for “Nightjars” by Michael Wehunt from LiteraryLollapalooza.blogspot.com:

“An Appalachian nightmare dreamscape of addiction and deeply buried childhood trauma. Luke, an alcoholic bookseller, starts finding Polaroid snapshots left around his home and bookstore, sparking forgotten childhood memories of his father committing a deplorable act, and him witnessing and even helping bury the body. Luke falls down a rabbit hole of mystery and terror trying desperately to answer questions he’s terrified to have answered. An original vampire-mythos based in the shadowy ancient Eldritch loam of the North Carolina mountains. Michael Wehunt’s debut novel “The October Film Haunt” is one of my favorite books from last year and this, his second novel, does not disappoint. Wehunt is a massive talent, and I’ll be happy to watch what he does next. Thanks to #NetGalley #StMartinsPress & #MacMillanAudio & @michaelwehunt.com for the advance review materials in exchange for an honest review, offered freely.”

HAPPY MOTHERFUCKING NIGHTJARS DAY @michaelwehunt.bsky.social ! what a fucking rad cover go on, acquire this…book…that in no way knows the exact volume of warm defenseless blood in your body.

This was SUCH a good time! I love Brian's work so much, and Greg and Edward are always insightful and fun. If you want to go into Nightjars blind, though, as some have suggested, you might want to save this.

I gotta say, if you liked Laird Barron's Tiptoes and The Shining, you're gonna love Nightjars by @michaelwehunt.bsky.social

This is all great and so in tune with what I intended on a conscious and unconscious level.

Well, you might get $10,000 if you pre-order it twice! Totally kidding! I'm sure you'll find out when it does or doesn't show up. Thank you either way! :)

Everybody's saying it's one of the best horror novels of the year. Maybe the best. People come to me with tears in their eyes, saying "Oh, Mr. Wehunt, we love Nightjars so much, we couldn't read it at night, it's so scary, it made us cry with emotion, too."
