u can preorder it now and preordering greatly helps prove that trans authors and trans horror has an audience, i love u all

for anyone looking for excellent trans horror: OLD WOUNDS by logan-ashley kisner

[transhorrors]

By the way, for my fellow horror fan mutuals, the news about the Suzy Izzard horror movie feels like a great time to promote this person: logan-ashley kisner

He's been researching and trying to create the first comprehensive list of every trans character in horror, and because of the nature of film, the project has also become one of preservation.

You find all it's work here: https://linktr.ee/transhorror

And if you want to listen/watch a pretty decent rundown of how the work was going a year ago, he's recorded one 2 hour video detailing the movies he had watched at that point and their place in the historical timeline/eras of trans representation in horror: https://youtu.be/rmKiBNGMy_k

The video includes some pretty great insights about trends in both bigotry and storytelling across the history of horror - but it especially highlights the positive aspects of some trans horror stories that might get generally dismissed as "problematic" without context.

This whole project is INCREDIBLY cool and informative. I really hope my fellow horror fans check it out and maybe show him some support.

Old Wounds by Logan-Ashley Kisner

Two transgender teens end up in a small, isolated town, where they must escape the locals who plan to sacrifice one of them to an ancient monster that only eats girls. A pulse-pounding thriller perfect for fans of Midsommar and Hell Followed with Us!

Erin and Max are two transgender teens trying to get to California. Max is desperate to finally transition, and Erin is longing to understand why she’s on this trip to begin with. The last she spoke to Max was when he suddenly broke up with her two years ago.

But when they find themselves stranded in the middle of the woods in a small Kentucky town, they realize they have much bigger problems. The locals need a female sacrifice for the monster that lives in the woods—according to them, the sun won’t come up again until the monster eats a girl . . . and it only eats what it kills. Fighting back is futile; no one selected as the offering has ever survived the night.

When the two strangers show up, the locals believe they have the perfect candidate. The irony of the situation is almost too much to fathom.

The thing is, the locals don’t know who they just trapped as their sacrifice. They don’t know Erin’s and Max’s secrets, which could be a death sentence on a good day. And the monster that lives in their woods has never faced prey who have already fought so hard to live.

totally forgot to post this here but we did the cover reveal for Old Wounds yesterday!

wrote this book in 2021 and 2022 basically off the frustration of modern Feminist Horror always being trans-exclusionary, and so here’s this story about two trans kids who not only have to survive a pseudo-cult and their monster, but also do the math on what a “female sacrifice” logistically entails (and which, if either of them, are truly in danger). also features the horror of being stuck in a car with your ex, musings on trans autonomy in fictional contexts, and pushing back on the idea that violence against queer people is “predestined” or otherwise unavoidable

you can preorder from any of the links here or add it on goodreads here :) comes out september 10th!

I lied I actually do like the second film but I still don’t consider it canon
