Dark Screams Volume Six features…

THE OLD DUDE’S TICKER by Stephen King
Richard Drogan has been spooked ever since he came back from ‘Nam, but he’s no head case, dig? He just knows the old dude needs to die.

THE RICH ARE DIFFERENT by Lisa Morton
Even though she made her name revealing the private lives of the rich and famous, Sara Peck has no idea how deep their secrets really go… or the price they’ll pay to get what they desire.

THE MANICURE by Nell Quinn-Gibney
A trip to the nail salon is supposed to be relaxing. But as the demons of the past creep closer with every clip, even the most serene day of pampering can become a nightmare.

THE COMFORTING VOICE by Norman Prentiss
It’s a little strange how baby Lydia can only be soothed by her grandfather’s unnatural voice, ravaged by throat cancer. The weirdest part? What he’s saying is more disturbing than how he says it.

THE SITUATIONS by Joyce Carol Oates
There are certain lessons children must learn, rules they must follow, scars they must bear. No lesson is more important than this: Never question Daddy. Or else.

THE CORPSE KING by Tim Curran
Grave robbers Kearney and Clow keep one step ahead of the law as they ply their ghoulish trade, but there’s no outrunning a far more frightening enemy that hungers for the dead.

Yep, it’s true! 95% of the First Edition, First Printings of Gwendy’s Button Box by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar have been reserved and we’re going back to press pre-publication for a second printing! The ONLY WAY to guarantee a First Edition, First Printing is to order through our the product page. None of the major booksellers are guaranteed specific printings, just FYI.

We also thought this is a good time to answer some frequently asked questions about the book, so here we go:

Q: Any chance Richard will sign more copies? I missed out on ordering during that promotion.

A: We’ve gone rogue here and put the SIGNED BY RICHARD CHIZMAR (no extra cost!) option back on the product page, but you’d better hurry before Richard notices and asks us to remove it!

Q: Any news about the Audiobook?

A: Yes! The awesome audiobook team at Simon & Schuster announced that Maggie Siff from Billions, Mad Men, and Sons of Anarchy is the narrator and there are two bonus features: a bonus story called “The Music Room” by King and an exclusive interview between Stephen and Richard! You can learn more here: Amazon * Audible on Amazon * Audible.com * Cemetery Dance Online Store

Q: Any movie news to share?

A: No comment.

Q: Didn’t JJ Abrams have some kind words to share about Gwendy’s Button Box?

A: “Man, I love this story! The whole thing just races and feels so right-sized and so scarily and sadly relevant. Loved the characters… and the sense of one little girl’s connection to the whole world through this weird device. It all just sang.” — JJ Abrams

Q: Are you just messing with us with those last two Q&As?

A: I have no idea what you’re talking about…

The first major review of Gwendy’s Button Box by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar has arrived and we’re thrilled to share what Publishers Weekly thinks of this exciting new novella:

“This absorbing novella by horror giants King (End of Watch) and Chizmar (A Long December) revisits one of King’s most popular locales. It’s 1974 when 12-year-old Gwendy Peterson is offered a magic box by a man named Richard Farris, whom she meets at the top of one of the cliffside Suicide Stairs in Castle Rock, Maine. Farris wears a “small neat black hat” and seems to know just who Gwendy is and what she wants. Eight buttons grace the mahogany box he offers to Gwendy, and a lever dispenses silver dollars and intricate chocolates that Farris claims will help Gwendy lose weight and escape being called ‘Goodyear’ by her classmates. Lose weight she does, but that’s not all. Wonderful things keep happening in Gwendy’s life, and she’s happier than she’s ever been. But when she decides to press one of the buttons, the consequences are horrendous. The novella follows Gwendy through high school and beyond, capturing the golden-hued joy of childhood and the wonder of friendship and first love, all under the shadow of temptation. This bite-size gem of a story packs quite a punch, and the only complaint readers will likely have is that it isn’t longer.”
