…also happened to be the title of an early Robert B. Parker Spenser novel. (Which, thanks to this thread, I’m now pronouncing correctly!)

@sgj.bsky.social; Halloween Horror Nights is all about t-shirt curation. Got two serious nods of recognition, which kinda made my night.

Any plans for further (mis)adventures and a second volume for Mr. Boyd, Lee? There’s a still a little room on the shelf…

Thanks for setting the example, Tamela. Just did the same.

@keithrosson.bsky.social, I just finished “The Devil by Name” - SO good - and jumped online to order a copy of “Fever House” for a friend. Not gonna lie; was a little taken aback by the actual number of reviews on Amazon…🤣

I do! Sort of the pride of my collection. (And I’m so old that I got each one as it came out…after xeroxing the stories out of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction that eventually became the first book.)

Hello, George! Big @paultremblay.bsky.social fan, myself, but here’s the highlight of MY horror bookshelves: chatting with the King himself at a “Firestarter” signing in 1980. (Also a huge fan of Grady Hendrix and @chuckwendig.bsky.social.)
