We’re so excited to welcome horror author Jonathan Janz to the shop for a book signing and meet & greet! Join us on Saturday, October 4th from 10:00am-12:00pm to meet the author and snag an excellent horror novel (or two!) to get you in the October mood.
We're especially excited for Janz's upcoming releases: 'The End of the World As We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King's The Stand' (out 8/19/25) and 'Veil' (out 9/16/25)! These titles (as well as select books from Janz's backlist) will be available for purchase at the event (while supplies last) but pre-orders are highly encouraged!
