Officially Announcing HORROR MOVIE by Paul Tremblay (Signed Limited Edition)

SST is pleased to announce Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay (Signed & Numbered Limited Hardcover) is now available for preorder.

Please Note:
Unfortunately, special offers or discount codes cannot be applied to this item.

“Balancing a terrifying cursed film with examinations of artistic creation, fandom, and truth, Tremblay’s latest is smart and well-paced and will have broad appeal.”—Library Journal (starred review)

Instant New York Times Bestseller!

A chilling twist on the “cursed film” genre from the bestselling author of The Pallbearers Club and The Cabin at the End of the World.

In June 1993, a group of young guerilla filmmakers spent four weeks making Horror Movie, a notorious, disturbing, art-house horror flick.

The weird part? Only three of the film’s scenes were ever released to the public, but Horror Movie has nevertheless grown a rabid fanbase. Three decades later, Hollywood is pushing for a big budget reboot.

The man who played “The Thin Kid” is the only surviving cast member. He remembers all too well the secrets buried within the original screenplay, the bizarre events of the filming, and the dangerous crossed lines on set that resulted in tragedy. As memories flood back in, the boundaries between reality and film, past and present start to blur. But he’s going to help remake the film, even if it means navigating a world of cynical producers, egomaniacal directors, and surreal fan conventions—demons of the past be damned.

But at what cost?

Horror Movie is an obsessive, psychologically chilling, and suspenseful feat of storytelling genius that builds inexorably to an unforgettable, mind-bending conclusion.

I am producing an optional slipcase with all new titles now and am currently looking at an estimated pub date of November/December 2025 for this title.

PLEASE NOTE: Orders containing more than one book/copy:
If you are trying to place an order for more than one book and the system doesn’t provide a shipping cost, it’s because it has difficulty working out the shipping charges for more than one book as each book is charged as if it ships separately to cover Preorders and In Stock titles, which have to be shipped separately so therefore incur two separate shipping charges.

Please place your order for each book separately and if they can be shipped together (if they are all In Stock titles, or multiple copies of the same Preorder title) I will do so and refund the shipping difference.

USA Shipping Update

I’ve received confirmation from the company I book my USPS and Courier shipping through, and books are exempt from the new customs charges so there will be no additional charges for your order.

Royal Mail charge a handling fee but I will prepay that charge before shipping your order so there will be no additional charges for your order.

Thanks & take care,
Paul.

Announcing Sugar on the Bones by Joe R. Lansdale

“Edgar winner Lansdale excels in his savagely funny 13th case for East Texas P*s Hap Collins and Leonard Pine… Blood-splattered action and a welcome spoonful of irreverent humor make this a surefire hit. It’s a high-water mark for the series.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

In this holy mess of a case for the "perpetual bad boy" (New York Times) sleuths in the beloved Hap and Leonard series, PI Duo Hap and Leonard investigate the untimely death of a woman whose family stood much to gain from her passing.

Minnie Polson is dead. Burned to a crisp in a fire so big and bad it had to be deliberate. The only thing worse is that Hap and Leonard could have prevented it. Maybe. Minnie had a feeling she was being targeted, shaken down by some shadowy force. However, when she’d solicited Hap & Leonard, all it took was one off color joke to turn her sour and she’d called them off the investigation. Wracked with a guilty conscience, the two P*s—along with Hap’s fleet-footed wife, Brett—tuck in to the case. As they look closer, they dredge up troublesome facts: for one, Minnie’s daughter, Alice, has recently vanished. She’d been hard up after her pet grooming business went under and was in line to collect a whopping insurance sum should anything happen to her mother. The same was due to Minnie’s estranged husband, Al, whose kryptonite (beautiful, money-grubbing women) had left him with only a run-down mobile home. But did Minnie’s foolish, cash-strapped family really have it in them to commit a crime this grisly? Or is there a larger, far more sinister scheme at work?

Irreverent, wise-cracking, and full of atmosphere and bite, Sugar on the Bones is not to be missed.

Announcing Stinger by Robert McCammon

I’m pleased to announce Stinger (Signed & Traycased Limited Hardcover Edition) by Robert McCammon.

“McCammon delivers terror with skillful ferocity.”—Publishers Weekly

The basis for the Peacock TV series Teacup: An extraterrestrial bounty hunter turns a Southern community into its private hunting ground in “the ultimate horror novel” (The Philadelphia Inquirer).

The West Texas desert towns of Inferno and Bordertown have been slowly dying. The Snake River isn’t the only thing that divides them. Racism and gang wars have turned the sun-scorched flatlands into a powder keg. If anything can unite them now, it’s the UFO that comes crashing through the clouds.

It brings with it a young alien named Daufin, a fugitive who has taken human form. She knows the terror that awaits this planet—because it’s looking for her. Stinger is an alien bounty hunter with an infinite capacity for death and a devious plan to find Daufin. Entombing the region in an inescapable dome, Stinger unleashes a violent fury unknown to humankind. Now, the few remaining survivors must come together to protect Daufin, themselves, and the world beyond.

From Robert McCammon, the New York Times–bestselling and Bram Stoker Award–winning author, Stinger is “one of the best suspense novels of recent years” (Science Fiction Chronicle). It has now been adapted into one of the most hotly anticipated horror series on television: Teacup, premiered on Peacock in October 2024.

https://sstpublications.co.uk/r-mccammon-stinger.html

I have all the finished books in stock. I’m just waiting for the traycases to be made and am currently looking at an estimated pub date of end of October 2025. (It takes several weeks for the covering materials to be delivered to the casemakers from Europe and then the cases have to be made.)

PLEASE NOTE: Orders containing more than one book/copy:
If you are trying to place an order for more than one book and the system doesn’t provide a shipping cost, it’s because it has difficulty working out the shipping charges for more than one book as each book is charged as if it ships separately to cover Preorders and In Stock titles, which have to be shipped separately so therefore incur two separate shipping charges.

Announcing THE BEAST YOU ARE by Paul Tremblay
“A wonderful collection of short fiction. These 15 gems, polished to perfection, range from straight-up horror to speculative fiction to psychological terror . . . . This one’s a must-have.”—Booklist (starred review)

Paul Tremblay has won widespread acclaim for illuminating the dark horrors of the mind in novels and stories that push the boundaries of storytelling itself. The fifteen pieces in this brilliant collection, The Beast You Are, are all monsters of a kind, ready to loudly (and lovingly) smash through your head and into your heart.

In “The Dead Thing,” a middle-schooler struggles to deal with the aftermath of her parents’ substance addictions and split. One day, her little brother claims he found a shoebox with “the dead thing” inside. He won’t show it to her and he won’t let the box out of his sight. In “The Last Conversation,” a person wakes in a sterile, white room and begins to receive instructions via intercom from a woman named Anne. When they are finally allowed to leave the room to complete a task, what they find is as shocking as it is heartbreaking.

The title novella, “The Beast You Are,” is a mini epic in which the destinies and secrets of a village, a dog, and a cat are intertwined with a giant monster that returns to wreak havoc every thirty years.

A masterpiece of literary horror and psychological suspense, The Beast You Are is a fearlessly imagined collection from one of the most electrifying and innovative writers working today.

SST Warehouse Unit Relocation

Hi Everyone,

I had a shock last Friday as I was in my unit and the Safestore manager knocked on my door and handed me a letter and said that they are demolishing my unit, and I have to get out in 4 weeks.

As you can imagine it’s been a bit hectic finding a new location and the huge job of packing everything up ready to move.

So if you’re waiting for an order to be shipped or an email from me, please bear with me while I relocate.

Thanks so much for your patience and take care,
Paul.

Please Be Aware!

Hi Everyone,

PLEASE NEVER BUY AN SST BOOK THAT HAS THE SIGNATURE PAGE TORN OUT AS THESE COPIES ARE DAMAGED AND FAULTY COPIES AND ARE ONLY FIT FOR THE BIN.

Someone is selling some copies of HOW TO SELL A HAUNTED HOUSE by Grady Hendrix on eBay that have been taken out of the recycle bin at my workplace. Here’s the listing:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/135108361153?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=k3xMRcayTzm&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=GeVX3_MXQVi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=EMAIL

I threw these copies out a week or two ago as they are damaged and faulty copies and were not fit for sale. I ripped out all of the Signature Sheets, the Copyright Pages, and all the Title pages. I also tore out random pages throughout the books, so they are not even readable.

Please do not buy these copies as they were only ever meant for the recycle bin and are not readable. If you have bought a copy, please ask the seller to refund your money as by buying these you are just wasting your money.

I have very high-quality standards for SST books and these copies were only ever meant to be thrown out. I wouldn’t even give these away.

I will be disposing of my damaged and faulty books elsewhere in the future so this can’t happen again.

Sadly, some people will try and sell anything to make some money. These copies hurt SST’s reputation as they are only fit for the bin. If you have bought a copy and can’t get a refund from the eBay seller please let me know.

Thank you so much for your continued support.

Take care,
Paul.

I have all of these in stock all new but all have various defects mainly the signed page being tore out in all of them with the odd mark here and there but all display well and would look good in the book case in any collection This retails at £45 + postage with it being the s...

Hi Everyone,

I’m pleased to announce our next Special Signed & Numbered Limited Hardcover edition, Black Mad Wheel by Josh Malerman.

I am offering an Optional Slipcase which you can order when you order your book from the link below.

“Malerman’s striking originality can’t be denied. Dark, brooding, and slightly unhinged, Malerman’s unusually compelling second novel is certifiably unlike any you’ll read this year.”—Kirkus

The Danes—the band known as the “Darlings of Detroit”—are washed up and desperate for inspiration, eager to once again have a number one hit. That is, until an agent from the US Army approaches them. Will they travel to an African desert and track down the source of a mysterious and malevolent sound? Under the guidance of their front man, Philip Tonka, the Danes embark on a harrowing journey through the scorching desert—a trip that takes Tonka into the heart of an ominous and twisted conspiracy.

Meanwhile, in a nondescript Midwestern hospital, a nurse named Ellen tends to a patient recovering from a near-fatal accident. The circumstances that led to his injuries are mysterious—and his body heals at a remarkable rate. Ellen will do the impossible for this enigmatic patient, who reveals more about his accident with each passing day.

Part Heart of Darkness, part Lost, Josh Malerman’s breathtaking new novel plunges us into the depths of psychological horror, where you can’t always believe everything you hear.

Announcing SST’s Special Signed & Numbered Limited Hardcover edition of THE DONUT LEGION by Joe R. Lansdale

“As usual, Lansdale's prose is tight, he has laced his highly entertaining story with sly humor, and he has populated it with a cast of quirky characters. This time, they include a brutish, 7-foot-tall arsonist, a cantankerous sheriff, a loveable police dog named Tag, and a cowboy-hat-wearing chimpanzee who rips people's arms off.”
—Bruce DeSilva, Associated Press

In this standalone, Edgar-award winning author, Joe R. Lansdale, whom “few can match” (Booklist) beams a light on an East Texas town where a QAnon-style, evangelist cult is brewing trouble.

Charlie Garner has a bad feeling. His ex-wife, Meg, has been missing for over a week and one quick peek into her home shows all her possessions packed up in boxes. Neighbors claim she’s running from bill collectors, but Charlie suspects something more sinister is afoot. Meg was last seen working at the local donut shop, a business run by a shadow group most refer to as ‘The Saucer People’; a space-age, evangelist cult who believe their compound to be the site of an extraterrestrial Second Coming.

Along with his brother, Felix, and beautiful, randy journalist Amelia “Scrappy” Moon, Charlie uncovers strange and frightening details about the compound (read: a massive, doomsday storehouse of weapons, a leashed chimpanzee!) When the body of their key informer is found dead with his arms ripped out of their sockets, Charlie knows he’s in danger but remains dogged in his quest to rescue Meg.

Brimming with colorful characters and Lansdale’s characteristic bounce, this rollicking crime novel examines the insidious rise of fringe groups and those under their sway with black comedy and glints of pathos.

Signed Limited Hardcover Edition:
- Limited to only 500 signed and hand-numbered copies
- Personally signed by Joe R. Lansdale and Dirk Berger on a specially designed full-colour illustrated signature page
