Cover Reveal and ARC Request Form – CANDY CAIN KILLS

Today we are excited to reveal the cover for Brian McAuley‘s holiday slasher novella, Candy Cain Kills.

When Austin’s parents drag him and his little sister Fiona to a remote cottage for Christmas, he’s less than thrilled about the forced bonding exercise. But after learning that their holiday getaway was the site of a horrific crime, this family on the rocks will have to fight for their lives against a legendary killer… because Candy Cain is slashing through the snow with a very long naughty list.

“The modern day Goosebumps for adults” —Horror Obsessive

Candy Cain Kills is the second entry in our new Killer VHS Series following Alex Ebenstein‘s Melon Head Mayhem. The cover illustration was once again masterfully produced by Marc Vuletich, while the title design and layout are by Alan Lastufka.

Candy Cain Kills will be available November 14th in paperback and ebook formats. Pre-orders are available now.
