One of Us brings together some of the most respected independent horror publishers and writers from across the Midwest, offering readers a chance to discover new voices and connect directly with the people creating some of the genre’s most talked-about work.
Featured presses include Weirdpunk Books and Cursed Morsels Press (MPLS), and Filthy Loot (Ames). Joining them are authors Paula D. Ash, Joe Koch, and Matthew Mitchell, along with other creatives from around the Midwest. It’s a gathering whose work has received Shirley Jackson, Bram Stoker, and Splatterpunk Awards, and has been featured in Fangoria, Rue Morgue, and Scream Magazines.
One of Us is built around a simple idea: to celebrate the strange, the independent, and the profoundly personal. Whether you’re a longtime fan of horror or just curious, this is a chance to explore what’s happening on the edge of the literary map — and to meet the people pushing it forward.
