Tell me all the horror movies that have novelizations please! Thank you in advance. (:

For anyone here who enjoys horror with a mythological streak, Crimson Revelations of the Unseen by Casius Kairon might be worth a look.

The six stories take different routes into the supernatural: a mysterious drink offering someone what she wants most, a musician performing for an audience with troubling interests, and two strangers discovering that their unexplained connection might be something to fear.

The common thread is pretty unsettling in itself—wanting something badly enough that you don’t look too closely at what’s offering it.

There are descriptions of all six stories on the author’s website, and the book is available through Amazon. There’s also an author Twitter/X account for anyone interested in following along.

All discussion for this book can be done here, but please use spoiler tags for anything you think should have a spoiler tag.

Please post your suggestions here. You can suggest more than one book, but each book has to have its own parent-level comment. If you want to add a few words about why you want to read that one, that's fine, but please only one book per parent-level comment.

Also, feel free to vote for more than one book. This will allow books that have the greatest consensus to rise to the top.

I heard his books are more than just horror. They are philosophy. I'm curious if his books could be bad for people whose mental health isn't in a good place. Input on this would be appreciated.

I listened to an audiobook version of this over the last two nights. It was interesting. Not great, but interesting. Gothic horror, written in 1921, it features a house that has rooms that appear/disappear (so a bit of a precursor to House of Leaves), and also an interesting effect that you can only remember what happens in those rooms when you're in them. The home also seems to influence the emotions/behavior of its victims.

EDIT: TRIGGER WARNING. When I wrote this I'd forgotten that there's one hard R in the middle of the book somewhere, in a stupid phrase ("Works like a"). It took me totally by surprise, and even more by surprise that the narrator chose to say it. The reviews I'd seen of the book were good, so I decided to continue, and fortunately that was the only occurrence. In retrospect I'm more annoyed that the narrator chose to read that sentence, as now having finished the book, I can confirm that sentence adds nothing to the book. If it had been removed the only people who would've noticed would've been people who already knew it was there, and splitting those into two groups, one wouldn't have cared that it was removed, and there are no arguments the other group could make that would change my mind about it needing to be included.

Since the corporations controlling social media platforms have pretty much done away with any and all forms of customer service we're trying to build a mailing list as a preemptive precaution that'll let us connect/reconnect with fellow horror fans directly, should anything happen to our accounts. We won't sell your contact info (we hate that BS too).

To register for the book/DVD giveaway, please sign up for the Horror Makes Us Happy newsletter: https://horrormakesushappy.com/join_list.html

The mailing list only has about 25 people on it, so if you sign up you've got some really good odds of getting something. We're giving one item away each month, and we plan to pick up more stuff at future conventions, so there's more to come, too.
