Séance in the Asylum #1 by Clay McLeod Chapman and Andrea Mutti. Cover by Mutti. Variant cover by Trevor Henderson. Out in July.
"1865. Defrauded spiritual medium Alicia Wilkinson is brought to The Ashcroft Hospital at the behest of Dr. John James Templeton. He offers Alicia a second chance to revive her once-thriving career: perform a séance amongst the patients in order to drawing out their mental maladies. Alicia performs her first series of séances with the patients - including traumatized soldiers returning from the Civil War, women whose sanity has slipped through their fingers - only to realize their sessions might work all too well. What no one knows is Alicia is a fake. A liar. A cheat... So why are the patients suddenly acting possessed?"

You guys don't understand how insane Wendell & Wild will make me. A Henry Selick (James & The Giant Peach/Coraline) Jordan Peele (Get Out/Us/Nope) collaboration based on a Clay McLeod Chapman (Whisper Down The Lane/The Remaking/Edge of Spider-Verse) piece?
Absurdity. 10 outta 10

Wendell & Wild
On Netflix October 28 |  In Select Theaters: October 21
From the delightfully wicked minds of
Henry Selick
and
Jordan Peele
comes Wendell & Wild, an animated tale about scheming demon brothers Wendell (
Keegan-Michael Key
) and Wild (Peele), who enlist the aid of Kat Elliot (
Lyric Ross
) — a tough teen with a load of guilt — to summon them to the Land of the Living. But what Kat demands in return leads to a brilliantly bizarre and comedic adventure like no other, an animated fantasy that defies the law of life and death, all told through the handmade artistry of stop motion.

Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions presents QUIET PART LOUD, A Fictional Horror Podcast Exclusively on Spotify
Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions presents Quiet Part Loud, A Fictional Horror Podcast with Immersive Audio and Sound Design Featuring Tracy Letts, Arian Moayed, Christina Hendricks, Taran Killam and more!
Tumblr media
The Story... Conservative radio personality Rick Egan (Tracy Letts) lost his platform in the wake of 9/11 for spreading xenophobic rumors surrounding a group of missing Muslim teenagers. Eight years later, a washed-up Rick is slumming it on the convention circuit when a mysterious woman (Christina Hendricks) presents a tantalizing revelation: One of the missing teens is back. This sends Rick on a quest for vindication as he follows a trail of unfathomable events. He is left face to face with the true culprit…The Blank (Taran Killam), a faceless sound parasite that thrives on the air of hatred. Rick receives a Faustian bargain from the mysterious entity and is about to find out exactly how far he will go to claw his way back to the top. 
From Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions, Quiet Part Loud is an audio horror fable that explores the terrifying power of a violent, virulent and unrelenting lie. It’s a haunting parable of monsters both human and otherworldly and a fictional but unflinching examination of the current animosity, fear and divisiveness in America.
With the use of immersive audio and sound design, Quiet Part Loud stands out from other horror narrative podcasts. The show consists of 12 bite-sized episodes that will be available for listeners to binge all at once.
Written by Mac Rogers and Clay McLeod Chapman; directed by Mimi O’Donnell; produced by Geoff Foster, Amy McLeish, and Katie Pastore; executive produced by Jordan Peele, Win Rosenfeld, and Mimi O’Donnell.
Quiet Part Loud Cast
Tracy Letts as Rick Egan, Nikohl Boosheri as Noor, Christina Hendricks as Allied Alice, Taran Killam as The Blank, Milly Shapiro as Becca, Arian Moayed as Tariq, Alfredo Narciso as Vernon, Krish Marwah as Khalil, Krysta Rodriguez as Gaby, Heidi Armbruster as Nicole, Dariush Kashani as Imam, Ali Louis Bourzgui as Hassan, Marwan Salama as Yusef, and Pooya Mohseni as Fatima.

Wendell & Wild (2022)
My rating: 6/10
Maybe it's because I was down with the 'rona at the time, and the various oozes and secretions corresponded a bit too closely with my own lived experience, but I couldn't really get into this one - and then my PC died, so I'm only getting around to reviewing it a month later, which is of course not ideal. Still, I suppose it's fine, I just wasn't as blown away as most people seemed to be.

Library readathon 2022 update: Here’s the library books I’ve finished so far this month! Some I read and have nothing in particular to say about them; some I do have little comments on, so those titles are bolded and comments are under the cut.  (Whether I had something to say doesn’t really correlate to how much I liked the book.)
Detransition, Baby, Torrey Peters
Striding Folly, Dorothy Sayers
What Angels Fear, C.S. Harris (Sebastian St. Cyr #1)
Skinwalker, Faith Hunter (Jane Yellowrock #1)
Loot, Jude Watson
The Witness for the Dead, Katherine Addison
Death Comes to the Village, Catherine Lloyd (Kurland St. Mary #1)
When Gods Die, C.S. Harris (Sebastian St. Cyr #2)
Whisper Down the Lane, Clay McLeod Chapman
Sting, Jude Watson (sequel to Loot)
OK, and some musings:
What Angels Fear, C.S. Harris (Sebastian St. Cyr #1) - was amused by the intro of the main character as, basically, “this is my detective, he can see in the dark and hear better than anyone and has yellow eyes like a wolf. also he has trauma.” but the author’s note does list a possibly plausible genetic reason for the eyes/seeing/hearing, so there’s that!
Skinwalker, Faith Hunter (Jane Yellowrock #1) - OK the weird thing is, the author’s note on the book above said that the seeing well/yellow eyes thing is also something that crops up in mixed Cherokee/Welsh populations in the US, and the main character of this book is a Cherokee skinwalker, so has preternatural abilities and yellow eyes (!). Obviously in this book the reason is magic, and I have done no other research on this connection yet, but I found it interesting!
Loot, Jude Watson - I liked that the thieves never had a moral panic over being thieves. (As far as I can tell, the only reason they consider not doing it is to avoid being caught.)  There’s enough other conflict; doing successful jewel heists is mostly just cool. And though I picked this one up randomly, I requested the sequel, so you can tell I liked it!
The Witness for the Dead, Katherine Addison - I did adore this gentle book, and look forward to the sequel! Reminded me in some ways of a Tamora Pierce, like her Terrier, possibly because of the solid plot and intense worldbuilding behind it.
Death Comes to the Village, Catherine Lloyd (Kurland St. Mary #1) - I liked this better than the other regency-era mysteries I read this month. Some slightly annoying but plausible for the setting “oh it’s because she is female”...“men are so bad at emotions”- type binary thoughts; but the MC guy (as opposed to the MC woman) is currently an “invalid,” literally not walking, b/c of the Battle of Waterloo, so he is unable to throw himself around heroically in the way other male protags of mysteries sometimes do (incl. St. Cyr, above). A nice change.  Requested the next one, we’ll see if it holds up.
Whisper Down the Lane, Clay McLeod Chapman - not a bad thriller, I just felt like everything that was supposed to be a twist was unsurprising? I think it’s reasonable that the MC/narrator is surprised, but I also think the reader is supposed to be sometimes, and I mostly wasn’t.  Could be because of reading a lot of mysteries/mystery-adjacent things and being aware of genre conventions, but idk. I usually don’t mind being able to predict twists, but this time instead of feeling like “I knew it!” (triumphant!) I felt more like “I knew it” (duh?).

Ghost Eaters
Clay Mcleod Chapman
RATING: 🕯🕯🕯🔥 (3.5/5)
Ghost Eaters by Clay Mcleod Chapman is a metaphor masquerading as a paranormal horror. It has a wonderful premise and is executed quite well - though a bit lackluster at times. Some parts of the book will have you awake until 3am reading, reading, reading, while others may feel like they drag out just a bit too long. All in all I think this book is certainly worth a read, if only for the perspective on addiction that it offers, just maybe not a second. Not for me, at least.
SUMMARY: "Erin hasn’t been able to set a single boundary with her charismatic but reckless college ex-boyfriend, Silas. When he asks her to bail him out of rehab—again—she knows she needs to cut him off. But days after he gets out, Silas turns up dead of an overdose in their hometown of Richmond, Virginia, and Erin’s world falls apart.
Then a friend tells her about Ghost, a new drug that allows users to see the dead. Wanna get haunted? he asks. Grieving and desperate for closure with Silas, Erin agrees to a pill-popping “séance.” But the drug has unfathomable side effects—and once you take it, you can never go back."
MY DETAILED REVIEW (SPOILER WARNING)
It took me less than a day to read Ghost Eaters. According to the Libby app, it took me 6 hours and 48 minutes to be exact. The story it tells is a great one - grief, addiction, the dependancy of a toxic relationship, love and loss. The way that Silas and his mushrooms take over the Tobias' body and the entire house like a parasite, the parallels between them are amazing.
As a metaphor, the book is solid. It gives a perspective on addiction that while I cannot comment on as someone who has never had substance abuse issues, I can appreciate. This book I think will be hit or miss with readers, with some loving it and some being a bit ambivalent towards it, like myself.
All in all, it's not my personal vibe but it was an entertaining read. Very visual, sometimes viscerally so. I may get myself a physical copy some day, if only for the love I have of owning physical books.
