Horror Bundle

Horror Bundle

Four books from across the Dead Ink, New Ruins, and Outsider Classics lists showcasing a rich variety of horror that we've published over the years.

Across these four titles you'll find writers working at the absolute frontier of what horror can do. 

Stainless — Todd Grimson

Justine is a vampire. Keith just lives like one.

An ex-junkie and ex-rock star — he’s let go of his ambitions, his hands mangled by his dead ex’s own jealous ex. It’s true that Justine has been around for a few centuries and Keith barely three decades, but they’re good for each other. Justine is teaching Keith to take the long view; Keith is reminding her how it feels to be alive. Yet a cohort of criminals, desperate artists, dead-enders, hangers-on, and wanna-bes, undead and otherwise, threaten their curious union. Can love stay untainted in a world of monsters?

First published in 1996, Todd Grimson’s Stainless is a noir fantasia, a symphony of bloody horror, and a woozy, erotic tour of night-side L.A.

Jawbone — Mónica Ojeda

Finalist for the 2022 National Book Award for Translated Literature. At an elite Catholic school in Ecuador, teenage girls perform increasingly dangerous rituals for a god of their own invention. An ominous, multivocal novel that explores the terror inherent in adolescence and the fine line between desire and fear. Now being adapted for television. Translated from Spanish by Sarah Booker.

The Atlas of Hell — Nathan Ballingrud

A two-time Shirley Jackson Award winner. In The Atlas of Hell, Ballingrud delivers an even more confounding, strange, and utterly entrancing collection. From a New Orleans bartender descending into a waking nightmare after picking up a stranger's phone, to a voyage of diabolists seeking an audience with the Devil himself.

Water Shall Refuse Them — Lucie McKnight Hardy

The heatwave of 1976. Following the accidental drowning of her sister, sixteen-year-old Nif and her family move to a small village on the Welsh borders to escape their grief. As the heat bears down and her family unravels, Nif begins assembling her own dark rituals. Reminiscent of the suspense of Shirley Jackson and soaked in the folk horror of the British landscape.
