    Hear Us Scream: The Voices of Horror, Available Now

    0
    By Peter 'Witchfinder' Hopkins on December 14, 2021 News

    Hear Us Scream: The Voices of Horror is a collection of personal essays from horror lovers all over the world. This collection was written by women and non-binary horror lovers. Each of the essays beautifully shows how horror has changed the lives of those who love horror.

    The book was successfully crowdfunded through Kickstarter which helped to fund the book cover design (by Rosie Cass), the purchasing of ISBNs, and to help pay for the POD service IngramSpark. Each backer received their copies of the book via PDF and will soon receive a small thank you gift which includes a postcard designed by Destiny Kelly.

    The book is out now and is available through many online retailers globally.

    There are plans for a Volume Two coming in 2022. Interest to contribute to that volume will be accepted in the new year.

     
    Excerpt from book (taken from letter from the editor)
    “Horror has given us all a home, it might be a little run down, knife holes in the exit doors, and some blood splattered on the beautiful white tiles in the bathroom; but it is our home. This home houses all of our trauma, our laughter, spirits and friendships. And what a wonderful home it is. Our community is one of the most inviting, supportive, and accepting communities that I have had the honour of being a part of. Without being welcomed in with open arms I would not have had the dream to create something so incredibly special for the community, but especially for our contributors.”
