Pirate horror is where the salty swagger of piracy crashes into the shrieking terrors of the supernatural. Think cursed gold that bites back, skeletons manning ghost ships, and sea monsters with a taste for rum and sailors alike. Incase you missed it. Yesterday we launched our first ever Kickstarter called DarkLit Sails, a pirate horror series of novels and novellas by some incredibly talented underrepresented and marginalized authors. We funded the project within 12 hours of launch and have reached our first stretch goal! Nervous, anxious, excited… So many feelings to process but more than anything, we are incredibly grateful for our readers and the horror community for all of your support. One thing we noticed that stood out the most with readers was the cover art by Val Halvorson. Their stunning illustrations bring this project to life and we can’t wait to show it off here, with all of you. If you like what you see and you want to learn more about the project, search PIRATES on Kickstarter or CLICK HERE! Of Black Flags and Devil Birds by Christopher Robertson, pitched as Pirates of the Caribbean meets Jurassic Park. Island of the Unclaimed by Alyson Hasson, pitched as Count of Monte Cristo meets Taboo. Dead Soil by Sylvester Barzey, pitched as Pirates of the Caribbean meets The Return of the Living Dead. The Nine Teeth of the River Styx by Damien Casey, pitched as The Evil Dead series and The Void with the visceral imagery of Mad Dog. The Devils and the Deep Blue Sea by Zachary Rosenberg, pitched as Black Sails meets The Vigil. The Flesh of the Sea by Lor Gislason and Shelley Lavigne, pitched as Our Flag Means Death meets Lovecraft Country. It Bubbles Under the Skin by Caitlin Marceau, pitched as a sapphic reimagining of The Lighthouse meets The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan. Dead Men's Chests by William Sterling, pitched as the spiritual crossroads of As Above, So Below, or a horror Indiana Jones. We have so much in store for this project. Make sure you follow the project so you don’t miss a thing! 📚 TAKE A BOOK, LEAVE YOUR SOUL! All of us at DarkLit Press are proud to host the LITTLE-FREE-LIBRARY OF HORRORS.
