The black maybe by Veres Attila at Valancourt Books - if you buy a hardcover, you get a free download code for the album, The Amber Complex.
---
The first-ever official soundtrack to a Valancourt book! THE AMBER COMPLEX is an album by Hungarian dark synth pop act Clayfeet, inspired by Attila Veres’ short story "The Amber Complex" from his collection THE BLACK MAYBE. It is out now and available on Bandcamp. Listen to it at pornaftermidnight(dot)com or on Bandcamp.
In Veres' story "The Amber Complex", the protagonist ends up in a strange winery offering so-called "complexes". By tasting the drinks one gets a glimpse into other lives or worlds. Each round brings a new batch named after a color from Blue to Indigo, but few people make it to the end: the Amber Complex...
The album consists of seven tracks, each complex represented by one song. Just like the stories hidden in the complexes, the album varies in style (even within tracks) from gloomy downtempo through trippy techno and dark synthwave to horror industrial metal and ambient space-synthpop.

This was such a perfectly creepy summery read. You really feel the heat & drowsiness of peak summer through McDowell's writing, but the spooky moments will chill you. * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #pugsandbooks #theelementals #michaelmcdowell #valancourtbooks #horrorbooks #summerreads https://www.instagram.com/p/CC9mdFDAWQU/?igshid=10g7wa2jtrxqm

Sometimes horror is better left implied than graphically stated. The Devil in a Domino by Chas L'Epine does just that. It follows a man in the late 19th century who is a seemingly happily married & rich man. But he has a history of periods of morose isolation & soon the bodies of mutilated women start showing up in London. This was supposedly inspired by the Jack the Ripper murders, but it goes much deeper than that. It tries to explore the psyche of the murderer & the effects on those dear to him. I love how so much is left to the imagination & the reader to deduce, but it also led me to a slightly confusing ending. If anyone else has read this, please comment below or dm me as I have questions about the last couple chapters! * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #bookreview #thedevilinadomino #valancourtbooks #horrorbooks #vintagehorror https://www.instagram.com/p/CD64KoIA0pW/?igshid=142z73haljtmj

THE NEST by Gregory A. Douglas, introduced by Will Errickson It was just an ordinary garbage dump on peaceful Cape Cod. No one ever imagined that conditions were perfect for breeding, that it was a warm womb, fetid, moist, and with food so plentiful that everything creeping, crawling, and slithering could gorge to satiation. Then a change in poison control was made, resulting in an unforeseen mutation. Now the giant mutant cockroaches are ready to leave their nest--in search of human flesh!

Hello everyone! I’m just recovering from a bout of flu caused due to the sudden weather change in Mumbai. Plus, it’s been hectic week work wise too. Looking forward to the weekend! *********************** I discovered November Night Tales by Henry Chapman Mercer while browsing through my shelves today afternoon. Mercer was a famous archaeologist, historian, architect and collector. This volume contains six stories including the rare story, “The Well Of Monte Corbo”. I’m once again reminded of the fact that I have too many #unreadbooksonmyshelves. *********************** #bookstagram #valancourtbooks #novembernighttales #henrychapmanmercer #lovethesupernatural #lovetoread #bookishhygge #bookishglee #thesimplejoysoflife #whatcouldbebetter (at Mumbai, Maharastra)

So my recent purchases were pretty firmly in two camps - horror & early 20th century lesser known modern classics. Have you read any of these? Any recs for which I should read first? * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #pugsandbooks #bookhaul #horrorbooks #britishlibrary #valancourtbooks #paperbacksfromhell #furrowedmiddlebrow https://www.instagram.com/p/CDSTxw7AZdC/?igshid=qbqgxrakyks5
