"Light passed through the lead-glass windows; 
shadows stretched across the floor with fingers that seemed to reach for her, 
to pull her in."

 


"Riley thought a minute, then said, 'I've heard that sometimes objects act as conduits, you know? Like if you hold your grandmother's wedding ring, you might call her back enough to be able to smell her perfume.'

'I've always had this idea that objects hold history,' Helen said.

Riley nodded. 'But maybe it's more than that. Maybe they don't just hold it - maybe it flows through them, you know? Gives the dead a kind of ... touchstone; something to pull them back to this world."

June 2020

Here is the original trailer for this month's book club pick ~ 

This story is part fantasy, part historical fiction and part evil.
What I got most out of this book was an appreciation for the writer and the incredible world he has created here.  
While reading, I was transfixed into a place of beauty and mystery and darkness.  I felt compelled by the characters; apprehensive of the forest and what lives there; a need to follow the clues in this enchanted and dangerous place.  
Truly, I wish they had added some of the darker elements of the book into this video clip to really give you a feel for this creepy adventure, so, I guess you're gonna have to take my word on it and get the book, read it, and determine for yourself if you think Serafina has earned her seat on the bookshelves of Evil's Library.
I hope you'll agree she does.

Look how excited I am about this month's book pick.

If there is anything you learn from this month's book club pick is that imagination is everything.
Here is Chuck Palahniuk with 
- what I believe was his second book - 
and an incredible story to keep us turning the pages.

Invisible Monsters is disturbing and memorable.

Be Advised:  
This book contains violence, 
unthinkable horrors, 
brutality and 
a darkness you may not come back from.




Elias Witherow delivers one hell of a nightmare 
that is perfect for the shelves of Evil's Library.
His incredible story-telling takes us to places never before imagined and 
leaves us terrified in the moment and haunted well after the book has finished with us.
Witherow introduces Nick and Jess, 
a couple seeking to end their pain in this world through suicide.
They yearn for the long slumber of darkness and disconnect 
they assume is waiting for them on the other side.
Instead of peace and quiet, however,  
they encounter a place of terror and suffering beyond belief.
Follow their gruesome story through The Black Farm.
And be thankful you're not with them.

Well, everyone interested in death, that is.
And this book is especially for those interested in visiting the final resting places of those who have gone before us.
Tod Benoit delivers with this masterpiece of information.
He touches on so many good and troubled souls in his remarkable book -
Where Are They Buried? How Did They Die?

Whether you are into sports legends, authors, artists, celebrities, musicians, historical figures, famous personalities, war heroes or gangsters, then this is the book for you to have and to reference.

The Night Lights Book Club picks another haunted read for Evil's Library.
And the cool thing about that is it's name implies as much.



The Haunted by Danielle Vega is a great spooky read for the season.
It is a chilling tale of past sins and present payment.
It deals in ghosts, shadows, and haunted houses.
I really enjoyed this tale and hope you do as well.

Evil's Library snags another soul for its shelves.
😈
Check out my book club pick for September.
Have you read it?
Will you check it out?




🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁


House of Leaves is an adventure.
Reading this novel took me on a twisted, daunting, exciting, wicked ride.
It is a story within a story within a story.
If you've read it, you know what I mean.
If you haven't yet, get to it and let me know what you think.
I hope you find something in these pages to hold on to and to thrill you and to haunt you.
There is no doubt that Mark Z. Danielewski brings to his reader 
a world filled with imagination.
He also gives us the gifts of reason and knowledge and choice.  
The choice to believe in the unknown; 
in the darkness; 
in its possibility.
A choice to dismiss the crazy; to view the facts; to conclude with sanity.
Bottom line.
This book is epic, as is the author.
And I am extremely proud to have it as our September pick for the Night Lights Book Club.
Enjoy it, Creepsters.

Joe Hill gives us hell served up on a Christmas platter.
I love the twisted way he takes the innocence of such a beloved holiday and creates a world of chaos and fear and evil.
There were times when I put this book down because I could not wrap my head around its darkness,
 only to pick it up again because the characters were so compelling and strong.
NOS4A2 is a dark, demented read that has found its home here in Evil's Library.

June 2019 

My book club pick for June is 




Recently - and with a little help - I was fortunate enough to stumble upon this find at a book store.
It is the latest release from the Sylvia Plath archives and comes to us from her 20-year-old self.
It is a story about a girl who is young and hesitant and unsure.
It is filled with decision and allegory.
Released this year, it unveils a sinister train ride where uncertainty seems to be the only constant. 
I absolutely loved it.
Check this one out and let me know what you think, Creepsters.
It's classic Sylvia...

My book club pick is based on location.
I was traveling at the beginning of the month and I wanted a scary read for the beach.
This one talked about the Sun, so I was sold.
(It is filled with anything but sunlight.)😊
It is filled with fear and imagination and terror.
(Classic King.)
A perfect read for this book club and a perfect addition to our library here.


Have you read this story by Stephen King?
Are you familiar with its evil?

Hi Creepsters.
This month's video for the Night Lights Book Club is meant to make you laugh 
and to ponder certain areas of the Unknown.
I had a recommendation from a fellow Creepster to check out a book that proposes questions about our Universe and many other worldwide mysteries. 
And even though this author wrote the book as a sort of serious ledger, 
I wanted to give it some green appeal.
So, have a laugh at my quirky clip about aliens and books...

Please note that I am a work in progress and may have to work on my camera game.

Thanks for being here and spending your time with me.

Hi Creepsters.
How's your reading going?
Anything good?  Interesting?  Weird?
Our book club pick for this month checks all those boxes...
It contains good ideas, 
proposes interesting theories, 
and allows the mind to ponder some weird and wonderful questions. 
Erich Von Daniken's bestseller, 
is a journey through some of the world's biggest mysteries.
It has sold more than 63 million copies and has become a notable classic in many communities.
Although this read isn't creepy in the way we're used to around here, it does tackle the Unknown on so many levels, that I wanted to share it with you.
Maybe you've already read it?
Maybe you're reading it right now?
Either way, let me know your thoughts.
Let me know if you believe...

And a big thank you goes out to Creepster Randall for this recommendation.

Hi Creepsters!
Welcome back to our Night Lights Book Club.
For this month, we are looking at a classic.


Dante's Inferno has been added to Evil's Library.
Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 700 years, you've had to hear about this book.
It has stood the test of time and is referenced repeatedly 
throughout our entertainment venues, social media and society in general.
I am currently working on a piece of fiction that involves the afterlife 
and that of Heaven and Hell.
I wanted to revisit this classic as a kind of summoning for my writing;
A bit of research for my work.
The images and writing of Dante is haunting and memorable.
Check this one out and let me know your thoughts.

A shout out this month to one of my all-time favorites, Sylvia Plath.
If you are unfamiliar with her work, get to know her.  
You will love her words.
You will love her honesty.
If you've already read her poems or prose, 
then you are well aware of her genius.
Long may she inspire and haunt us.

This month, Evil's Library is getting another wicked read added to their shelves. 
The Apartment by S.L. Grey is an incredible journey of darkness and terror.
 It is a chilling account of what happens when you come face to face with your demons.

Read this novel and let me know your thoughts on it, Creepsters.
Let me know if it gave you a scare too.

October 2018


So, I have to admit that I felt some pressure with this month's book club pick,
simply because it is the best time of the year for scary stories and I wanted to make sure I picked one that was not only wicked, but one that might cause some nightmares for you out there.
I hope you will find HEX by Thomas Olde Heuvelt to be just that read.




For me, this was a great story to get lost in and once I got into it, I could not put it down.
I couldn't stop reading about Black Spring, a town cursed for all eternity;
About Katherine, their witch of days gone by who haunts, waiting for someone to remove stitches from her eyes and mouth; 
And I couldn't help but fall in love with the technological side of the operation whose job it is to detect and protect.
I highly recommend this read as we dive into the Halloween season.

I recommend it for those cool October nights when the sun sets early and the wind whispers its breezes among the trees.
Enjoy its darkness, Creepsters.
Enjoy its evil.

September 2018



With Halloween right around the corner, 
this is the perfect read for the season.


A short story collection, Slasher Girls and Monster Boys is a killer read.
And I do mean killer.
The cool thing about this collection, 
is that it takes from all of our favorites...
Pieces of Alfred Hitchcock and Stephen King and Lewis Carroll are found among these stories;
Snippets of Nirvana and Mudvayne linger among its pages.
Read it and find out what I'm talking about and then post and share your favorite story with us.
This book comes highly recommended by me and by Evil's Library:

And please show April Genevieve Tucholke some love 
for putting this wicked collection together.

August 2018



As a writer, I believe that those who can tell a really compelling story using the least amount of words, wins.
I've read many novels that were as thick as bricks as didn't say a whole lot.
And then I find something like The Lottery by Shirley Jackson and I am blown away.
It is very short, but packs a punch 
and if you put into perspective the time at which she wrote this, 
you can imagine the shock that it created for its audience.
And I know that Ms. Jackson does not need me to verify her talent, 
but I highly recommend this read and give it the highest rating here at Night Lights:

April 2018


"It was a pleasure to burn."

From this opening line I am hooked.
I am enthralled by this newfound world of chaos and confusion and conformity.
I am all in and yet, 
I am only an onlooker; 
Just an observer of a time that I do not want to see;
Only a reader of books,
And for this alone, I will pay the price.


This is a story that needed to be told.
It needs to be read.
It needs to be passed on...
And although this story doesn't contain demons or creatures or paranormal activity of any kind, 
it is a haunting read.  
It is a classic and it has more than earned its mark in the literary world.  
Ray Bradbury is a genius with this one -
and that is why Fahrenheit 451 gets the highest mark here at our book club:

The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman is the perfect pick for November.  
Coming off the Halloween high that so many of us enjoy, 
this book will keep that euphoria going strong.
This read is haunting and magical.
You will get lost in the spirit world that Gaiman so cleverly has composed, and 
- hopefully - 
you will treasure your walk with the characters that he has so intricately created.
It is a spooktacular read and is receiving the highest mark from us here at Night Lights:

September 2017




This month, I have picked 

for The Night Lights Book Club.
This book is clever and crazy and I just couldn't get enough of it.
I love the point of view that Kepnes uses to tell her tale;
I love the detail of the story;
I love the raw, psychotic honesty of its characters.
This is a real page turner, Creepsters.
It's like nothing I have ever read before.
Read it.
If you're twisted, like me, you will absolutely love it.

My rating for this book gets 5 outta 5:  ❤❤❤❤❤

August 2017 
(Love that facial expression.)  
😊



My pick for August is from the master of horror, Stephen King.
I am a huge fan of his work (not his biggest fan, for that role has already been taken)
and out of all of his books I decided to start with Mr. Mercedes.  
I am only half way through this novel 
but am already recommending it because it's got a hold on me.
I will - no doubt - update this post when I finish the book and rate it accordingly.

UPDATE:  This book gets 5 outta 5: ❤❤❤❤❤
Why?  
Because it's Stephen-fucking-King, Creepsters 
and he always gets a 5 out of 5 here at Night Lights Cast Shadows.
(And it's also a really good detective novel.)
This is actually part of a trilogy, so if you like it, check out Finder's Keepers and End of Watch.
I'm guessing they're just as good.  They are also on my list of must-reads for the season.

July 2017



  The Girl With All The Gifts


The legendary M. R. Carey is my pick for July.  
This novel captured my attention in the book store 
(thanks for the nudge, Kim) 
and it captivated me from the first word until its last. 
They have recently made this into a movie so you can always check that out too.

My rating for this masterpiece?  It is nothing short of = 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

For June, I have chosen this gem by Iain Reid.
It is his debut novel and is extremely well done.
It will intrigue you and scare you and scar you.

Expect it to leave an impression.

Daughters Unto Devils

For the month of May, I have chosen this dark read by Amy Lukavics ~  "Daughters Unto Devils".
This book came up in conversation with a friend (Thank you, Jessica) and I told her I would check it out.  Well, I am ever so grateful for her suggestion because it is fantastic.  
It is dark and disturbing and a great debut novel for Author Amy.  If you can make out the tag line written by Cat Winters, it says "Imagine Stephen King writing "Little House on the Prairie") 😳 Wtf?!?!  Well, this intrigued me even more to read it.  
   
So, Creepsters, find the time and check it out.  I would LOVE to know what you think of it and if you were - maybe - a little frightened by it?  A bit disturbed?  Did you find it unnerving? Unsettling?  Would you recommend it to a friend? And just how many dark hearts would you give this read? 

My rating?  "Daughters Unto Devils" = 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
