Dreadful Tales Samhain Celebration Wrap-Up
The wonderful folks at Dreadful Tales were nice enough to dedicate an entire week to Samhain Horror, with interviews, reviews and articles with authors (such as myself) and editor Don D’Auria. If you’re a fan of horror, this is a treasure trove of insight and hopefully a reason to add to your “to read” pile. You can catch up on everything right here! Dreadful Tales Samhain Celebration Wrap-Up.
Winner, Winner, Free Book Dinner & Radio Interviews
A big thank you to everyone who entered this weekend’s contest (and so many of the nice things y’all said). Well, I pulled out the little post-it pad, wrote all the names and put them in a basket. My daughters each drew a name and we have our 2 winners. Congratulations to Ahsley Applebee and Cate Gardner! You each win a signed copy of Forest of Shadows.
For those who didn’t win, I’d like to send you a signed promo card for the book. There aren’t many left and who knows, if the book ever becomes a classic, you’ll have something valuable to pawn off on eBay! Please send your mailing address to me at huntershea1@gmail.com and I’ll send them all out ASAP. And don’t despair. I plan to give away more books and other fun stuff over the next few months.
On another note, I’ll be interviewed on a couple of radio shows this week. Hopefully, I can censor myself. If you’d like to hear me ramble on about whatever flies into my head, please stop by.

Radio Interview With Samhain Horror Authors
A few days ago, I took part in a radio interview for Diabolical Radio with several other Samhain Horror authors. We talked about our roads to getting published, why we love and write horror and of course, our current releases and upcoming books. I believe we were all sober and no one can be heard cheering or cursing in the background, since Game 1 of the World Series was on at the time. 
If you’ve ever wondered what makes a horror writer tick, you definitely want to check this out. Click here to listen to the interview.
Roll call of those who were part of the interview:
Kristopher Rufty, author of Angel Board.
Ronald Malfi, author of Borealis.
Brian Moreland, author of Dead of Winter.
Jonathan Janz, author of The Sorrows.
And of course, me, The Forest of Shadows guy.
Don’t forget to check out my fan page on FB where I run a new contest every Saturday with lots of cool giveaways. OK, have to get ready to go see Paranormal Activity 3 so us Monster Men can post a new review. Remember, if a vampire knocks on your door, DO NOT let him in. The bastard will think he owns the place.
Monster Men Halloween, Campfire Tales & More Ghoulish Fun
Another crazy week, but lots of good stuff to share. Aside from promoting Forest of Shadows like a door to door Bible salesman, I have been busy actually writing. I finished the first draft of a story for an anthology with Toys in the Attic as the theme. Going to start working on a couple of flash fiction pieces for another antho. Aaaaand, I’m ready to start the finishing touches on my first horror novel for kids. Ah, so many young minds to corrupt.
First up, I was interviewed on Jim Harold’s Campfire Tales podcast. It will be part of episode 87 where I talk about the phantom boy who may have come around to heal my ailing wife. 
Next is an interview awesome author Brian Moreland did with me on his great blog. While you’re at it, check out his book, Dead of Winter. Great, spooky reading.
And now for the fun stuff. The Monster Men Halloween episode is here! We talk about our ghosts from Halloweens past (specifically my embarrassing little drummer boy costume), and give you tips on what to read, watch and do to make the season the best ever. So, without further ado, I give you The Monster Men. And why the bucket hat, Hunter? It’s to honor the character Dale from The Walking Dead. New season starts tonight, so get to your TV as soon as you’re done watching The Monster Men! And then come back and like our brand spanking new Facebook fan page.
