Lucas Mangum Boeken

Madness Heart Press is proud to present this revised edition of Splatterpunk Award-nominated author Lucas Mangum's novel about cursed screenplays, vengeful ghosts, and Hollywood death cults. A must-have for fans of B-movies, the revised edition contains the never-before-published story, "Hollywood Blood and Guts," and a brand new foreword by the author. Controversial filmmaker William Ward doesn't believe in curses, but he's happy to have the hype surrounding his newest movie, an adaptation of a notorious screenplay with a dark history. As production begins and people start dying, he learns that the curse is all too real and the vengeful ghost haunting the script is only a piece of the puzzle. At its heart lies a shadowy cult, manipulating events behind the scenes. As dark forces gather around him, Ward and his girlfriend Rachel must find a way to break the curse before it's too late.

A rock star living in excess is called home after the disappearance of his son and must atone for past sins. A bartending ex-preacher becomes an accessory to murder. A suicidal writer spending a winter weekend at the Jersey Shore is snowed in with a cult and its strange goddess. In the new edition of Lucas Mangum's debut collection, these stories and more plunge head-first into darkness both human and paranormal. Lives and whole worlds end. Rebirth leads to a second death. These stories are both terrifying and transformative, and after reading them, you won't be the same.
