Kill Creek synopsis: "A psychological horror with a literary twist, Kill Creek evokes the unnerving, atmospheric terror essential to greats like Shirley Jackson and Stephen King—a haunting that lingers long after turning the last page. Barnes & Noble calls it “a book from a horror fan to horror fans—creepy, atmospheric, and messed up in all the best ways.”
When best-selling horror author Sam McGarver is invited to spend Halloween night in one of the country’s most infamous haunted houses, he reluctantly agrees. At least he won’t be alone; joining him are three other masters of the macabre, writers who have helped shape modern horror. But what begins as a simple publicity stunt will become a fight for survival—the entity they have awakened will follow them, torment them, threatening to make them a part of the bloody legacy of Kill Creek.
Emmy-nominated writer Thomas, who set out to “make the humblest contribution, in some small corner, to the American gothic horror tradition," won the inaugural 2016 Launch Pad Competition on Inkshares, with the support of producers like Ridley Scott. Now, just one year later, Kill Creek will debut in bookstores worldwide, and is rapidly culling interest from the Hollywood rights market for film and TV adaptation.
