Dreadful Discussions – Turkey Day
2025-11-22 12:00 - 17:00
We will discuss Turkey Day by Armondo Munoz
On Thanksgiving morning, Kelly and her wife Angela return to Kelly’s rural childhood home for a family reunion and holiday dinner. Not everyone welcomes them to the feast; like the country, they are a family divided. Also in attendance is a secret guest in an intricate turkey costume, somebody influenced by the holiday’s darker history, somebody who hollows out humans and decorates with their insides. Not even Jerky and Giblet, the turkeys kept in the coop out back, will receive a pardon from Turkey’s slaughter. Can Kelly and Angela survive until dinner, and will anyone be alive for a slice of pumpkin pie?

Dreadful Discussions – Crafting for Sinners
2026-01-24 12:00 - 13:00
A queer woman must fight her way out of a craft store run by a megachurch in this gripping survival horror novel by Jenny Kiefer, author of This Wretched Valley.
The ratcheting tension and gut-churning terror will appeal to fans of Camp Damascus by Chuck Tingle and Horrorstör by Grady Hendrix.
Ruth is trapped. She’s stuck in her small, religious hometown of Kill Devil, Kentucky, stuck in the closet, and stuck living paycheck to paycheck. After her manager finds out that she lives with her girlfriend, Ruth is fired from her job at New Creations—a craft store owned by the church that dominates life in Kill Devil.
In an act of revenge, Ruth attempts to shoplift some yarn but is caught red-handed. Instead of calling the police, the employees lock her in the store—and attack her. As Ruth fights for her life using only the crafting supplies at hand, she plunges deeper into the tangled web of the New Creationists, who are hiding a terrible secret that threatens not only her but the entire town.
Urgent, scathing, and utterly original, Crafting for Sinners cements Kiefer’s status as a dazzling new star in horror.
