2024 Newsletter #9: New Mary SanGiovanni! New Edward Lee! Shipping in a couple of weeks.
THE EVERYWHERE HOUSE
by Mary SanGiovanni
A group of paranormal investigators is bribed or extorted by a wealthy real estate holding company to investigate and neutralize their most sinister and powerful property — a mansion in a small suburb of Connecticut. However, Carrington House is not like other haunted houses; its ghosts are not like other ghosts. Death in Carrington House is inexorable and multifaceted…and only the beginning of the horrors that await in its halls. The team needs to find a way to stabilize the house and escape it, because the longer they stay, the less likely that they will ever find their way out again — in this universe, or in any other.

MR. TILLING’S BASEMENT AND OTHER STORIES
by Edward Lee
Mr. Tilling‘s Basement
If an intriguing woman knocked on the door to your craptastic new house and offered to sell you some knowledge about it for a small fee, and then she showed you a secret room in your basement where the former owner smoked hallucinogens and performed occult rituals, would you be curious to explore it with her? If you’re a morose and horny retired professor like Herman Tilling, you sure as Hell would! But it might not end up the way you expect.
The Night-Sitter
When Jessica accepts an offer of free room & board and $500 per night from a reclusive retiree to house-sit for him while he sleeps, she figures there must be some kind of catch. But it’s easier money than being a cam-girl. And he doesn’t want sex. He just wants her to stay awake all night and keep an ear out for unusual noises. He’s probably just paranoid, right?
An American Tourist in Poland
Foster Morley, a retired professor, travels to Poland in the hopes of satisfying his sexual appetites at the local fleshpots, only to run into unexpected and increasingly deranged events.
The Statement of Sgt. Jessop
Sgt. Jessop of the Innsmouth Police Department was on patrol when he first realized something was seriously wrong. In this interview, he recounts his first-hand experience as one of the only living survivors of the cosmic horror that transpired that day.

LAST CHANCE TO ORDER VEILED! Preorders end 4/30.
The first time their eyes lock, it’s an amused and sympathetic look from Alice at the next table. She can tell Nate’s blind date is going horribly awry.
The second time is a chance meeting at a grocery store. Or is it by chance? It’s a little weird, but either way, Nate and Alice hit it off immediately.
He really likes her. They have great chemistry. But there’s something a little off—okay, a lot off—about her. Not just the unexplained sadness. It’s an intense desire, almost a desperation, for things to move much faster than Nate is comfortable with.
Alice has an obvious secret. What’s she hiding?
When Nate finds out…well, nobody said this was a romantic comedy…
Signed by Jeff Strand
Limited to preorders through APRIL 30, 2024. On May 1st this will be sold out and no longer available.

2024 Newsletter #8: New Hailey Piper limited edition up for pre-order!
THE WORM AND HIS KINGS SAGA
by Hailey Piper
“Long ago, in a time now dead, one note changed our world forever.”
Manhattan 1990: Monique’s girlfriend Donna has vanished without a trace. Only after the disappearances of several other impoverished women does she hear the rumors of a gray creature rising from the underground to snatch victims off the street, and Donna might be one of them. When Monique decides to give chase, she’ll plunge into a subterranean world of monsters, monarchs, cultists, and gods both beyond her understanding and closer than she thinks.
So begins the sprawling trilogy of the almighty Worm. Join Monique, Donna, the Gray Maiden, and more in desperate searches for lost lovers, dire revelations, and shattered futures, where every step brings the discomforting touch of celestial cruelty.
Hailed as a modern cosmic horror classic, exploring queerness, worship, connection, transcendence, and fate, the original novella The Worm and His Kings has been gathered here for the first time in a single volume with its sequels, Even the Worm Will Turn and Song of the Tyrant Worm. Together, they invite you down mysterious caverns within the earth, into strange histories, and out of the world you know, where you’ll come face-to-face with a darkness that stretches from the dawn of time and across the stars.

2024 Newsletter #7: New Jeff Strand pre-order. Update on the Drive-In anthology.
All,
April is here and it feels good to be through March. February was chaotic. March was a bit smoother (although last week was rough from a shipping standpoint, hoping to catch up this week). However, I still have three months to go before I am back to normal.
Two announcements to go over in this newsletter.
First, I am taking pre-orders on Thunderstorm’s 11th Jeff Strand book. The first five I published were all under my standard oversized Black Voltage line. The second five were all under Jeff’s Gleefully Macabre imprint. And after some discussion, we decided to return to the Black Voltage production. We want to get a good grasp on how many Strand collectors are planning on picking these up since they will have different production attributes and price points. The first book (11th book) will be Veiled. We are in talks of doing Creep Out next.

PRE-ORDER TODAY!
The second announcement is that shipping for Joe R. Lansdale’s The Drive-In: Multiplex is scheduled to begin one week from today. 4/8/24. One important thing to note is that if you have moved in the last year (preorders started nearly a year on the dot last year), please email me your new address at thunderstrombooks@gmail.com. The post office will not forward media mail, so your address needs to be up-to-date.
