“Larry Hinkle offers up horror in a multitude of some funny, some gory, and some weird af, it's hard to pick a favorite. Do not miss out on this up-and-comer in the horror world!” – EV Knight, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Fourth Whore From a corn maze hiding a cosmic secret between its rows to the basement of a Nebraska woman with a magic eye…From a support group for necrophiliacs to a demon searching for a new apprentice…From a town overrun by a sentient garbage dump to the tunnels beneath one of the country’s most haunted hotels…From the trail less travelled to a remote outpost on the outskirts of civilization... The 20 stories in this debut collection from horror author Larry Hinkle explore the space between our world and the next. Between then and now, and now and then. Between found and lost. Between the innocence of a child and the bloodlust of a monster. Tread lightly and watch your back. You’re never alone in the space between. With a foreword from Bram Stoker Award-winning author Tom Deady. “An everyman’s collection of uncanny twisted little tales exploring the weird in corn fields, quarries, quarks, and other creepy corners of the world. With a voice that is irreverent, unexpected, and delightfully macabre, Hinkle is an author to watch.” – Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Monster Stories
Author

Larry Hinkle is the least famous writer you’ve never heard of. A copywriter living with his wife and two doggos in Rockville, Maryland, when he's not writing stories that scare people into peeing their pants, he writes ads that scare people into buying adult diapers so they’re not caught peeing their pants. "The Eris Ridge Trail," his new cosmic horror road trip novella (with dogs!) was released in March 2025, while his debut collection, “The Space Between,” came out in February 2024. His work has also appeared in "October Screams: A Halloween Anthology," "The Rack: Stories Inspired by Vintage Horror Paperbacks," and The NoSleep Podcast, among others. He's an active member of the HWA (his short stories made the preliminary Stoker ballot in 2020 and 2022); a graduate of Fright Club and Crystal Lake’s Author’s Journey program; an HWA mentee; and a survivor of the Borderlands Writers Bootcamp.
