Horror Panel with Megan Bontrager & Daisy Pearce at the Haunted Bookshop
About this Event
Join us for an evening with Megan Bontrager, author of 'The Sea Hides Its Dead', and Daisy Pearce, author of 'Dark Is When The Devil Comes'. Megan and Daisy will be interviewed by our own Suki Broad, author and founder of the Bristol Women Fantasy Writers Group.
From Megan’s cosmic survival horror to Daisy’s eerie folklore, these two know exactly how to write prose that lingers long after the final page. We’ll be diving deep into their latest books, what they’re brewing up next, and all things horror.
Daisy Pearce was born in Cornwall and grew up on a smallholding surrounded by hippies. She read The Hamlyn Book of Horror far too young and has been fascinated with the macabre ever since.
Daisy began writing short stories as a teenager and had her first short story 'The Black Prince' published in One Eye Grey magazine. In 2015 'The Silence' won a bursary with The Literary Consultancy and her short story, 'The Brook Witch', was performed on stage at the Small Story Cabaret in Lewes.
Daisy's debut novels The Silence and The Missing were published by Thomas & Mercer in 2020. Her third novel Something In The Walls was published in the US in 2025 and will soon be available in the UK. Daisy currently works in a library and hunts ghosts.
Megan Bontrager is a Horror and SFF author, currently based in Yorkshire. Megan received her BFA in English from the University of Central Florida and her MA in Writing from Johns Hopkins University. In her free time, Megan loves to play TTRPGs and is a lifelong horse girl who dreams of rehabilitating rescues. The Sea Hides its Dead is her debut horror novel from Orbit.
Come out for a glass of wine and some "mild" discussions of blood and viscera.
See you there!
