Today we are announcing the acquisition of Candy Cain Kills Again: The Second Slaying, a new novella by Brian McAuley.

Candy Cain Kills Again is a slasher sequel that picks up immediately where the first book left off with the festive killer coming to town on Christmas morning to punish a parish full of sinners.

Brian McAuley is a WGA screenwriter whose produced credits range from family sitcoms to horror films.

Candy Cain Kills Again will be published Winter 2024 as the fifth title in our popular Killer VHS Series. Pre-orders for the paperback edition are now live.
