E hele i loko o kou wahi ʻo Barnes a me Noble a hoʻāʻo e ʻimi i kahi mea weliweli. Hiki paha iā ʻoe ke ʻike iā King, Koontz, a i ʻole kekahi mea mai Richard Matheson, Jonathan Maberry, a i ʻole Peter Straub. E ka poʻe, aia kahi pūʻali o nā mea kākau weliweli weliweli ma waho i kēia manawa ʻaʻole i loaʻa i ke aloha n 'shelf space i kūpono iā lākou. Aia kekahi poʻe heluhelu e aloha i ka nui o kēia mau haku hoʻokalakupua inā ʻike lākou i ko lākou ola.

I kēia manawa, ua haʻalele ka poʻe hoʻoweliweli weliweli i kekahi mau makahiki i hala i ka wā i pani ai ʻo Dorchester Publishing i kona mau puka. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, he kuʻikahi ʻo Dorchester me Barnes lāua ʻo Noble. Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka mea hou mai Brian Keene a me nā mea ʻē aʻe he nui ma laila ma ka hōʻike "Nā Pepa Hou". Ua hānai ka Leisure Book Horror Club i ka noʻonoʻo daimonio i ke ʻano weliweli i pā i kāu ʻōnaehana e like me ka māwae (ʻaʻole wau i hana i ka crack). Ua hoʻomālamalama ʻoe, a makemake koke i nā mea hou aʻe. ʻO ke kanaka i alakaʻi i ka laina Leisure Book Horror, ʻo ia ke kanaka e hana like nei no Samhain Publishing, Don DʻAuria. Inā hoʻihoʻi mai ʻo Don i kahi mea kākau EONO mau manawa hoʻopaʻapaʻa ... maikaʻi loa ʻo ia.

I koʻu hoʻomaka ʻana ma ʻaneʻi ma iHorror, ua hoʻolauna aku au iā ʻoe i kekahi o koʻu mau hoaaloha. E ʻae mai iaʻu e hoʻolauna iā ʻoe i kekahi. ʻO Russell James kona inoa. Ua hoʻokuʻu wale ʻo Russell i kāna moʻolelo weliweli hou (a ka ono no Don D'Auria a me Samhain Publishing). Ua kapa ʻia, Kaha moeʻuhane, a maikaʻi loa (E loaʻa iaʻu kahi loiloi no ʻoe i kēia pule aʻe).

 

ʻElua mau mea maoli. Hoʻokahi manaʻolana.

He aha inā inā ʻoe i noho i ʻelua honua, a hiki ke make i kekahi? Hiki iā Pete Holm. He moeʻuhane ʻo ia, hiki iā ia ke huakaʻi i ke aupuni o nā moeʻuhane, e komo pū ana me ka honua pōʻino o Twin Moon City, kahi e hoʻopaʻa ai kahi ʻuhane voodoo hewa i nā ʻuhane ola i ka weliweli me kāna pūʻali o ka poʻe make hele.

I ke ao e ala ana, ʻike ka haku lāʻau ʻo Jean St. Croix i ka mana o ka mea moeʻuhane e hiki ke hoʻōki iā ia, no laila ua hoʻohiki ʻo St. Croix e make ʻo Pete.

ʻO Pete wale nō ka manaʻolana e hoʻopakele i nā ʻuhane nalowale ma Twin Moon City… ke ʻole ʻo St. Croix e pepehi mua iā ia. Hiki i kekahi ke ola i ka wā e hui pū ai nā mea ʻelua?

 

I ka pule i hala aku nei, ua kamaʻilio wau me Russel e pili ana Dreamwalker, a me nā mea hou aku ...

ʻO Glenn Rolfe: Kou puke hou, Kaha moeʻuhane, he mea kupanaha loa. Heluhelu au iā ia i ʻelua pule i hala aku nei, a ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻike iā ia ʻaʻole e hana i kaʻu 10 kiʻekiʻe o 2015.

Pehea ka lōʻihi o kēia papahana mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana a i ka pau ʻana a no ke aha i lōʻihi ai ka lōʻihi?

Ua hoʻomaka hou kēlā i ka wā i haʻi mai ai ʻo Don iaʻu e pili ana i ke kelepona hoʻouna ʻana ma ka World Horror Con. Ua hana au i kahi noiʻi hoʻoweliweli Gothic, hoʻomanaʻo i koʻu aloha iā Edgar Allen Poe, a ʻai i kekahi mau kakini o kāna mau moʻolelo e loaʻa ai ka ʻono o ka wā. ʻO ia wale nō ka moʻolelo aʻu i hana ai i kēia manawa kahi aʻu i hoʻāʻo ai e hoʻololi i koʻu ʻano.
