The Chrysalis by Brendan Deneen – $24.99 cover price – This book looks to be full of creepy fun.
Spawned by Brendan Deneen’s own experiences relocating to a New Jersey suburb with his young family, The Chrysalis combines chills, thrills, and a literal monster in the basement with commentary on love, marriage, and impending parenthood.
Welcome to the dark side of suburbia.
Barely employed millennials Tom and Jenny Decker have to grow up fast when they lose their cheap Manhattan apartment. Leaving “the city” is hard, but the blow is softened when they stumble upon a surprisingly affordable house in the suburbs.
For Tom, the bills, the mortgage, and Jenny’s unexpected pregnancy add up to terror. He’s not ready for this kind of responsibility.
Then he finds the thing in the basement. It makes him feel like a winner even as it scrambles his senses. A new job soon has him raking in the big bucks―enough that Jenny can start making her entrepreneurial dreams come true.
The Deckers’ dream home conceals more than one deadly secret. As Tom’s obsession with the basement grows, Jenny realizes that to save her family, she must expose everything. Before it destroys them all.
No one ever really wants to grow up…but sometimes behaving like an adult is the only way to survive.
Bloody Shower Curtain – What a fun idea for a shower curtain! You may want to warn any guests using the restroom before they go in… or not, that may be more fun!
We All Float Down Here Drawstring Backpack – These lightweight backpacks are incredibly handy and this one, inspired by Stephen King’s “IT,” looks pretty cool.
Hockey Mask Pop Socket – I was needing a new pop socket for my phone and Creepy Crate big time with this Jason Voorhees inspired design.
“It Rubs the Lotion on the Skin” Candle – While it was a disturbing scene in Silence of the Lambs, this scented candle smells pretty nice.
Killing Season: The Unsolved Case of New England’s Deadliest Serial Killer by Carlton Smith – We get two books this month. This is the downloadable version.
A New York Times–bestselling journalist traces a string of unsolved murders—and the botched investigation that let the New Bedford Highway Killer walk away.
Over the course of seven months in 1988, eleven women disappeared off the streets of New Bedford, Massachusetts, a gloomy, drug-addled coastal town that was once the whaling capital of the world. Nine turned up dead. Two were never found. And the perpetrator remains unknown to this day.
How could such a thing happen? How, in what was once one of America’s richest cities, could the authorities let their most vulnerable citizens down this badly? As Carlton Smith, a Pulitzer Prize finalist for his coverage of the Green River Killer case, demonstrates in this riveting account, it was the inability of police officers and politicians alike to set aside their personal agendas that let a psychopath off the hook.
In Killing Season, Smith takes readers into a close-knit community of working-class men and women, an underworld of prostitution and drug abuse, and the halls of New England law enforcement to tell the story of an epic failure of justice.
Creepy Crate was totally creepy, yet fun to look through. I like the homages to some of my favorite properties and I’m happy with the inclusion of the books this month, since both stories are spine-tingling and engaging. The pop socket made this offering incredible. It’s a great subscription to try whether you’re simply into spooky reads or a horror fan in general!
