An Evening with Adam Cesare at The Haunted Book Shop

Why dread the horror of back-to-school when you could celebrate with us and ADAM CESARE at The Haunted Book Shop on August 25th? Yes, you read that correctly. Adam Cesare is coming to Mobile as part of his national tour for book four in the series, "Lights! Camera! Frendo!"

This is your chance to meet Adam, author of the wildly popular horror series CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD, and have him sign your copy of Lights! Camera! Frendo! After the signing, Adam and select ticket holders will head down the street to the Crescent Theater for a special screening of the slasher film Clown in a Cornfield, followed by a Q&A with Adam. Only 95 screening tickets are available, so if you snooze on this invitation you will face the horror of a "sold out" banner.

The fun officially starts at 5:30PM at The Haunted Book Shop, but Alchemy Tavern will start slinging their Adam Cesare-themed cocktails earlier that afternoon to get you in a festive mood. There's nothing scary about an Alchemy cocktail.

So, horror fans, who's with me? Ready for all the jump scares and suspense of Adam Cesare and Clown in a Cornfield? Grab your ticket today. A paid, advance ticket is required for entry to the event. In the ticket ordering section, you will have your choice of ticket level for this event.

There will be three ticket types for this event:

• 1st tier - Book & Signing Line only (Includes book)
• 2nd tier - Movie & Q&A only (does not include book)
• 3rd tier - Book, Signing Line, & Movie & Q&A (includes book)

About Lights! Camera! Frendo!

Let the killing continue in Lights! Camera! Frendo! It’s the fourth installment of Adam Cesare’s Bram Stoker Award-winning series, and this time Frendo goes Hollywood – with all the blood, guts, and mayhem you’d expect from the series that spawned the blockbuster motion picture.

Sabrina Alvarez is pretty much a nobody—until she lands the starring role in the big budget film based on the Kettle Springs Massacre. Sabrina knows she should be on top of the world. She’s going to be THE Quinn Maybrook, Final Girl of Final Girls, national hero and certified badass. But as soon as Sabrina gets to Kettle Springs, she just can’t quite shake the feeling that something’s off. A spate of deaths, an out-of-control director, a town decimated by loss and divided by anger, and a movie designed to glorify it all. Something bad is brewing, and this time, it’s all on film.

A meditation on the villains inside us all, it’s the latest installment of Adam Cesare’s Bram Stoker Award-winning series, Clown in a Cornfield.

Dive into the dark corners of suspense and intrigue with Cesare’s newest novel, where the line between horror films and reality blurs, leaving the characters—and readers—questioning what is truly real.

See you on August 25, 2026, at 5:30PM as we welcome Adam Cesare to Mobile! Tickets required and includes the book.
