Attractions in Development

We are charging along with The Groundskeeper! The night drags on and each twist and turn gets wilder and wilder. This is turning out to be a fun story to create and develop. Remember, this is being written one chapter at a time; you’re experiencing it as the first draft is being produced! Though a rough design exists for the completed attraction, we are rolling headlong together on this impromptu journey!

The relevancy here is that the staging for the upcoming attraction—A Vampire’s Vengeance—hinges on the completion of The Groundskeeper. We here at the Calamity are very excited to unveil Volume II of the Backstage Pass, and much of this week’s efforts have gone into its development and conceptual considerations. Part of this includes the allusion to pulp fiction in the title! But actual pulp fiction, from horror pulp magazines of yesteryear. We’ll be delivering classic horror tales straight to your inbox, baby! More details will be revealed as we draw closer to its unveiling. For now, the dust cover must remain over the attraction’s scaffolding.

As mentioned in last week’s edition, Unholy Requiem is in the hands of our esteemed Advance Readers. As they pour over and scrutinize every minute word choice and diligently search for plot holes, a concept for the physical book has been designed and the proof soon to go out for the perusal of those in the Advance Reader group. I cannot contain how excited I am to see this novel come to life. More details on this as Unholy Requiem approaches completion!

And now without further ado …

The Groundskeeper, Part XVI
