A snippet of a painting used on a book cover. A scorned person wears large glasses and a red hood.

Horror’s Grand Frightener himself, Garth Marenghi, descends upon Bristol Beacon for an unmissable night of dread, dark visions, and possibly giant moustachioed skeletons.

Marenghi’s latest masterpiece, This Bursted Earth, sees horror author Nick Steen battling reality itself as his imagination threatens to consume the town of Stalkford.

Expect bone dry wit, apocalyptic absurdity, and the unique brand of terror that only Marenghi can deliver.

Hardback copies will be available to purchase, with strictly time limited signings.
