VAULT ANNOUNCES CORIN HOWELL’S LILITH: BLOOD & BURLESQUE: "Vault is thrilled to announce the return of Corin Howell’s smash-hit sapphic horror series, Lilith, with Lilith: Blood & Burlesque. The brand new comic book series will see Howell joined by colorist Warnia Sahadewa and letterer Haley Rose-Lyon to bring back the beloved characters Lilith and Penny as they continue their journey to bring Lilith home.
“‘Blood and Burlesque’ follows Lilith shortly after the end of our first chapter,” said Howell of the new series. “Her journey home hits a snag when Penelope’s shop is in trouble, leading to sexy pinup calendars and pink princess pilates! But there’s a shadow on the horizon in the shape of old faces from Lilith’s past, including demon dogs and a massive masked monster butler. But that’s nothing compared to Lilith’s biggest hurdle: facing her growing feelings for Penelope.”
The character Lilith, created by Howell, began as a genuine social media phenomenon. Howell’s Lilith illustrations have garnered millions of likes on Howell’s social platforms, making Lilith one of the most popular original illustrated characters on social media. Then in 2024, Howell & Vault partnered to publish a Lilith comic book series that became an immediate critical darling and commercial hit with multiple sell outs and new printings.
Lilith is an immortal who's been banished from her home, a dimensional plane suspiciously similar to mankind's idea of hell. She's been posing as a model on Earth while secretly preying on humans. That is, until she runs into Penelope, a sweet bookstore owner with a tome that might hold the secret to returning Lilith to her home dimension.
Lilith: Blood & Burlesque #1 will hit comic book store shelves everywhere this October. The debut issue will feature a phenomenal line of variant covers by some of the most beloved artists in the world, including Mirka Andolfo, Suspiria, Luana Vecchio, Chloe, Garth Graham, and more. The full synopsis for Lilith: Blood & Burlesque #1 can be ready below;
Everyone's favorite man-eating demon is back! Penny’s bookstore is still a mess after the monster attack. Much to Lilith’s dismay, Michael proposes a great idea: Why not make a sexy calendar to raise funds to pay for the shop repairs? Meanwhile, Lilith and Penny start making good progress on translating the book that could help Lilith get back home. But what will Penelope think if she learns Lilith’s true motive—and true nature? Seems like Lilith is bound to find out when a sinister and sexy pair from her past emerges at a burlesque show.

DARK SKY FILMS SETS U.S. RELEASE DATE FOR TIM KASHER’S PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR THRILLER
‘WHO’S WATCHING’: "Dark Sky Films will release the psychological horror thriller WHO’S WATCHING on digital platforms and select theaters across the United States on September 18, 2026 (Roxy Cinema in New York City and Laemmle's Glendale in Los Angeles). Written and directed by acclaimed songwriter, musician, and filmmaker Tim Kasher, the film marks the latest feature from the frontman of influential indie rock bands Cursive and The Good Life. Bringing his signature blend of confessional storytelling, dark humor, and psychological depth to the screen, Kasher crafts an unsettling tale that blurs the line between paranoia and reality. Ahead of its digital debut, WHO’S WATCHING will embark on a nationwide theatrical tour, with select advance screenings accompanied by live performances from Kasher.
WHO’S WATCHING stars Zachary Ray Sherman (A Desert, Under the Banner of Heaven), whose performance in the film earned him the Best Actor Award at the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival, alongside Gracie Gillam (Superhost, Fright Night, Teen Beach Movie), Olivia Luccardi (It Follows, Soft & Quiet, The Baltimorons), and Steve Berg (Don’t Worry Darling, Tag). Written and directed by Kasher, whose decades-long music career has earned him a devoted following for emotionally raw, narrative-driven work, the film marks his most ambitious feature to date. The film is produced by Tim Kasher, Maher Jafari, Liz Renner, and Josh Ethier.
Official Synopsis: Eccentric musician and aspiring filmmaker Caleb becomes obsessed with his new coworker, Krista, secretly documenting every aspect of her life in an effort to make her the subject of his latest film. As Caleb’s fixation intensifies, the lines between observer and participant begin to blur, pulling him deeper into a dangerous spiral of surveillance, manipulation and obsession. As the cameras keep rolling, the question becomes increasingly unsettling: who is really watching who?
Greg Newman, Executive Vice President of Dark Sky Films says, “Tim Kasher has spent his career exploring relationships and the darker corners of human behavior through his music, and WHO’S WATCHING brings those same themes to the screen in a deeply unsettling way. Anchored by Zachary Ray Sherman’s extraordinary performance, it’s a smart, provocative thriller that lingers long after it ends. We’re also excited to partner with Tim on these special screening events, which give audiences the opportunity to experience the film before its release alongside intimate live performances.”
Writer/Director Tim Kasher adds, “This film has been over a decade in the making, evolving through countless drafts before becoming the story it is today. I’m incredibly proud of what we created, and the performances from Zachary Ray Sherman, Gracie Gillam and Olivia Luccardi brought it to life in ways I could never have imagined. I’m thrilled to finally share this creepy story with audiences and to bring it on the road for these special screenings.”
Ahead of its digital release, Kasher will embark on a WHO’S WATCHING roadshow of special theatrical preview events. Each event will feature an advance screening of WHO’S WATCHING followed by a short acoustic set and Q&A with writer/director Kasher."
