Have you heard, It came From The Pumpkin Patch makes its way into the world on October 22. Available for preorder on Amazon, (link in the comments) and soon, details on a special edition hardcover available from either Kate Reedwood or myself, this will be the first standalone novel from us. Unless….

It Came from the Pumpkin Patch… and it doesn’t want to go back.
Thirteen-year-old Timmy Mantis hates pumpkins and anything to do with them. Growing up in Harvest Creek, the pumpkin growing capital of Wisconsin, has been a living hell. Especially at Halloween when the small town becomes obsessed with everything pumpkin at the annual fall festival.

When an accident happens at the local research laboratory and one of the experiments escapes, Timmy realizes he was right to hate pumpkins. As the festival becomes ground zero for a monstrous invasion of gourds-gone-wild and the body count rises—literally—Timmy must face his greatest fears or become another victim.

Accompanied by a scientist determined to put things right, Timmy uses whatever means he can to save the town and his life. But how can one kill an undead pumpkin that has revenge on its mind?

Pumpkin carving takes on a whole new meaning in this Halloween-themed horror story coming October 2024.

It's supposed to rain this weekend. So why not do something fun inside and come join me at Niagara Falls Comic Con. I'm in Artist's Alley table 60. I'll have the Legacy Hunter series, the Mall Priest trilogy, and a few copies of Project Hell and the Little Miss Kick Ass books available. I'll have a few of the Mall Priest Collector's Edition Book Boxes on hand as well, but only a few, so if you want one, grab it early while you can.

Looking forward to seeing you and having a fun weekend which starts THIS FRIDAY at the Niagara Falls Convention Center from 3-8pm.

What people are saying about MALL PRIEST

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique 1980s horror dark comedy with great characters

“Mall Priest: A Tale of Demonic Holiday Horror is a fast-paced, gore-filled horror novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Set on Christmas Eve in 1985, the story follows Father Sam, the mall priest of Springfield's largest shopping mall, as he and a group of unlikely heroes band together to stop Abaddon, one of the Devil's deadliest soldiers, from unleashing hell on Earth.
Heinicke and Redwood do a masterful job of creating a sense of dread and suspense as the body count rises and the mall becomes a battleground between good and evil. The characters are well-developed and relatable, and the action is relentless. The book is also full of humor, which helps to offset the darker elements of the story.

One of the things that makes Mall Priest so enjoyable is its unique premise. The idea of a demon possessing a shopping mall is both absurd and terrifying, and Heinicke and Redwood really run with it. The mall comes to life in all its garish, 1980s glory, and the authors use the setting to great effect, creating some truly memorable and disturbing scenes.

Overall, Mall Priest is a must-read for fans of horror fiction. It's a fun, thrilling, and original novel that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
Here are some of the things that I loved about the book:
The unique and original premise
The well-developed and relatable characters
The relentless action and suspense
The perfect balance of humor and horror
The vivid and atmospheric setting
If you're a fan of horror fiction, I highly recommend checking out Mall Priest. It's a book that you won't soon forget.”
