'Matilda’s Retreat is an enjoyable dose of the gothic horrors and supernatural dreads that Cavendish has made her career from.’

A lovely pre-launch review from Daniel Robichaud. Many thanks, Daniel!

Hospital. The word is enough to turn many of us into quivering jellies. No wonder so many of them are haunted - and none more so than Newsham Park. Here's one from their bulging archives...

And now for something completely different. Perfect for Christmas, an alt history laced with humour and a number of dead bodies. This is Napoleonic Britain 1913.

Twiggy Voo?

The most sensitive, beautifully executed version I have ever seen. Two and a half hours long but, for me, no sagging in the middle or dragging out of any element of the story. A damn fine film by any measure. #movies #horror #frankenstein #GuillermoDelToro

Many thanks, Steph! @flametree.bsky.social
Just finished the first book off my book tower from World FantasyCon: The Stones of Landane by @catcavendish.bsky.social. Loved it & would recommend if you'd like a spooky story set in a small village surrounded by standing stones. (yes, I know the real life equivalent, favourite part of the world.)
