From Robert Essig, author of Death Obsessed, In Black and People of the Ethereal Realm, and Jack Bantry, author of The Lucky Ones Died First and editor of Splattepunk Zine.For some of the punks, it was just another night at a local gig.Partying with crazy people after gigs was nothing new, but on this night there was something in the air. Was it all the tequila and weed? Something was turning the locals into maniacs . . . deviants. Something was giving them an INSATIABLE sexual appetite!For Megan it was another late night at the lab, but when she needed another cup of coffee what she discovered in the break room would shock her to the core.And that was just the beginning...of the end of the world!Punk rockers, secret labs, sexy cops and animal rights activists. INSATIABLE will take you to hell and back!"Vampires, werewolves, living dead...none of that...welcome aboard an epidemic of 'insatiable' sex-crazed maniacs. Taste this new virus, and you will be the next to be fucked. A high voltage enjoyable reading, between Laymon's 'Virus Black Widow' and a satirical science fiction B movie." - Alessandro Manzetti, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of NARAKA"A ferocious adrenaline overload delivering a thick slab of gore-encrusted brutality on a platter of libido-fuelled perversity."- Chris Hall, DLS ReviewsNot ready yet

After an ancient tribe of sentinels disbands, the realm between Earth and Hell devolves into a land where vile beasts roam free and corruption reigns. In this aberrant land time is only relative, and pain can last forever. On Earth there are three strangers in search of something tangible, something real, something that gives meaning to their lives. Little do they know that a grisly murder in San Diego will mark the beginning of a series of events that will draw them to a world of madness, torture, and lawlessness where they will be forced to fight for their desires and their lives. Once in the realm of the In Between will they ever be the same again? Is there a way back home to Earth, or does Hell await? "Essig brings a fat slice of urban horror combines with his uniquely abstract vision of a hellish world. Endless suffering abounds! For fans of down and dirty horror!" - Daniel I. Russel, author of Come into Darkness

This is exactly how underground horror fiction should be, unfettered, uncompromising and deliciously nasty. Horror has a new voice.” – Mass Movement“Sometimes you stumble across something and you want to tell the world about it. It happens I’ve found something I’d like to share, something joyous, yet unsettling, amateur, yet smart. I’m talking about Splatterpunk Zine.” – Snakebite Horror

Sing Me A Death Song (Splatter Western)

Dead Sky Publishing

Remember those old VHS tapes with labels that said "banned in 40 countries" and "not for the faint of heart," with titles like Faces of Death and Mondo Violence? Well, they're back, only this time it's a book. This book. Death Obsessed is Faces of Death with an identity crisis. Get ready for something mondo macabre!Back when he was a teenager, Calvin was into the morbid stuff. He thought he outgrew it, but he's only a video clip away from becoming obsessed, and what's Ronnie going to think about that? She's not the kind of girl who digs cemeteries and dead things. But Hazel, she's something else altogether, and oh how persuasive is a woman who knows what she wants.Drawn back to a place Calvin had forgotten about, and lured by the baritone drawl of Mr. Ghastly, who promises the much sought after death scenes classic known as Death's Door, Calvin trips down one hell of a rabbit hole, and everything is at stake. Can he leave his nine-to-five life in the dust for some real action, or will he be left sick, all alone, and Death Obsessed?"For anyone who dared picked up Faces of Death at the video store as a teenager or perused the atrocities of early internet shock sites like Rotten.com, Death Obsessed is a nightmarish trip down a rabbit hole slick with corpse slime and grave dirt. It's a supernatural glimpse at the deranged world behind the execution videos and crime scene photos and the people who enjoy them." -- Mike Lombardo, writer/director of I'm Dreaming of a White Doomsday
