Diavolo was raised on a religious commune in Humboldt County where the redwoods filtered sunlight in dusty slants. At night, his eyes drifted to spiderwebs in the rafters, where all the terrible secrets lived.

He is the author of the award-winning cosmic horror novel Many Arms Enfold Us, and his work has appeared in Skytown, Perceptions, and The Poet Heroic. His new novel Hypersound is now available in paperback and ebook.

A member of SAG-AFTRA and the Horror Writers Association, he currently resides in Portland, OR.

The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty

The Exorcist (The Exorcist, #1) The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I never realized how faithful the film adhered to the novel. Blatty had a great ear for dialogue, and much of the conversations are intact in the movie. I can see why he won an Oscar for the screenplay. The bonus was a few anecdotal paragraphs of authenticated possessions from history--which made for fun Wikipedia asides.
