Holy Hell.
Jake just showed me the outline for his summer 2026 release. And I swear, I don’t rattle easy — but halfway through his pitch I cut him off.
“Jake!!! Do NOT share this with anyone.”
He gave me that smirk — the one that says “you’re just being dramatic, Ash.” And then he actually said it:
“Why are you so bent, Ash? Nobody cares.”
That’s when I hit him with the most serious tone I’ve ever used:
“We will care when another author writes this after a publisher steals it.”
Because here’s the truth: I’ve been a horror addict my entire life. Books, films, shows — I’ve consumed them all. And I can honestly tell you: I have never seen, never read, never even imagined a concept like this.
It’s not a twist on zombies. It’s not a haunted house rehash. It’s not some bargain-bin possession story. It’s something entirely new. It’s horror on a frequency no one’s touched before.
So what did I do?
I stole the manuscript and locked it in my safe. 🔒
Because this isn’t just a story. It’s a bomb.
And when it drops next summer, it’s going to make everything else in horror look like yesterday’s leftovers.
Trust me when I say: you’re not ready.
But you will be.
—Ash
