Cover Reveal – CANDY CAIN KILLS AGAIN

Today we are excited to reveal the cover for Brian McAuley‘s new holiday slasher novella and his second entry into the Killer VHS series, Candy Cain Kills Again: The Second Slaying.

After surviving the horrors of Christmas Eve at the Thornton house, Austin, Mateo and Fiona head to the Church of Nodland to get some confessions from Pastor Wendell and his congregation. Little do they know that Candy Cain is coming to town to wish one and all a very merry axe-mas!

Candy Cain Kills Again is the fifth entry in our Killer VHS Series following Tanya Pell‘s CICADA. The cover illustration was once again masterfully produced by Marc Vuletich, while the title design and layout are by Alan Lastufka.

Pre-orders are now available for paperback (directly from our shop) and ebook (Amazon). Direct orders come with a special Candy Cain prayer card (while supplies last).

Candy Cain Kills Again will be released worldwide on November 12th, 2024.
