Well, hello there! If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably when wondering when world famous author Brent Michael Kelley (me) would be releasing a new novel. Well, I have just confirmed with his people (also me) that his brand new comedy-horror novel PUMPKIN GUTS is going to be published in October of 2026! What’s it about? I’ll go ask him. Okay, I’m back. He says it’s about this:

Hiding out from the Icelandic mafia in the middle of nowhere, Lia Rail finds herself offered up as the annual Halloween sacrifice to an oversized pumpkin-monster called Jack o’ the Patch. After a narrow escape, Lia is pursued by a growing horde of Jack’s pumpkin-minions. Monstrous worms, bats, and spiders will tear the town apart until their master gets his victim. As the creatures flood the town and close in, Lia’s survival depends on making friends and giving them a reason to trust her. She’ll have to do it quickly, too, before Jack o’ the Patch himself comes down from the mountain to destroy the city in search of his prize.

What!!! Pumpkin monsters, human sacrifice… the Icelandic mafia!!! This book looks awesome, and you can’t wait to read it! Here, enjoy this image of the cover, courtesy of legendary horror cover artist Lynne Hansen:
