Welcome to Zombie Talk

There's not a lot here. There will be soon. Stuff like:

  • News on PRINT IS DEAD's latest releases.

  • News on AMC's The Walking Dead and the film version of World War Z.

  • Interviews with some really awesome zombie authors, including Jonathan Maberry, Joe McKinney, and many more.

  • Reviews of comics, movies, and books.

  • A report from the set of Brian Keene's Ghoul.

  • News on Zombie stuff I've currently forgotten about.

  • News on Zombie stuff of which I am currently unaware.

For starters, you might be wondering: What the heck is PRINT IS DEAD?

It's a line from Ghostbusters, and it's also the name of the new zombie imprint from acclaimed indie-publisher, Creeping Hemlock Press. We launched in 2005, with Corpse Blossoms, a Stoker-nominated anthology that Jack Ketchum called "the best, most consistently satisfying anthology" that he'd read in years. Earlier this year at World Horror 2011 in Austin, we unveiled our first three zombie novels:

  • Pray to Stay Dead by Mason James Cole

  • World In Red by John Sebastian Gorumba

  • Scavengers by Nate Southard

All three books are receiving rave reviews, and this is just the beginning: we have several other excellent zombie titles in the pipeline, including The Living by Kealan Patrick Burke and Reanimated Americans by Martin Mundt. 2012 will bring even more zombie awesomeness-- much of which I can't even tell you about. We'll be working with some of very best horror writers around to bring you the very best in zombie fiction.

Check back often, and thanks for stopping by.
