In celebration of Dark Hall's first anniversary as a Horror Fiction publisher we are proud to present a value-priced sample pack containing excerpts from our first three Witch by Lorne Patterson, Exoskeleton by Shane Stadler, and Dark Corners by Michael Bray. It’s certainly been an exciting year, and as much as this sampler is a taste of where we’ve been, it’s also a taste of where we’re headed. Experimental in spirit, but with a mind towards the classics, Dark Hall’s mission is to promote superior works of Horror Fiction, carrying the rich and celebrated tradition forward into the new millennium.
Michael Bray is a bestselling author/screenwriter of more than twelve novels and numerous short stories. Influenced from an early age by the suspense horror of authors such as Stephen King, Richard Laymon, Shaun Hutson, James Herbert & Brian Lumley, along with TV shows like Tales from the Crypt & The Twilight Zone, his work touches on the psychological side of horror, teasing the reader’s nerves and willing them to keep turning the pages. Several of his titles have been translated into multiple languages including a major bookstore distribution deal in Japan and his biggest selling title, Whisper, has, on numerous occasions topped the overall horror charts for Amazon titles in both the UK and US with thousands of copies sold.
His work has been featured in anthologies alongside such horror greats as Clive Barker, Adam Nevill, Shaun Hutson, Brian Lumley, Paul Tremblay, Ramsay Campbell, Ray Bradbury and many others and he continues to be an active and popular member of the horror/suspense genre.
A feature film written by Bray based on his co-written novel MONSTER starring Tracy Shaw (Coronation Street), Daniele Harold (East Enders) & Rod Glenn (American Assassin / World War Z) was shot in January 2018 whilst another of his titles, MEAT is currently with a leading Los Angeles based production company with a view to production in 2019.
