Founded in 2017, TK Pulp is a Belfast-based independent imprint run by Trevor Kennedy, the creator of Phantasmagoria Magazine. TK Pulp specialises in handpicked, exceptional books: standout novels and short story anthologies of the horror and weird fiction variety.
Are you ready for ghastly ghosts, demons, abominations of nature, ghouls, the darkest of dark poetry, a haunted dolls' house, giant spiders, knife-wielding maniacs, the Pale Emperor, malevolent insects, zombies, 'Sandmen', visits to 1980s Northern Ireland, Victorian England and 'Isla's Island', a man who can morph into a scarecrow, aging songstress Cher doing battle with Jesus and Thor to save the space-time continuum, and a whole plethora of other unspeakable horrors?!
Welcome, friends, to Trevor Kennedy's Gruesome Grotesques Volume 2: Vampires, Werewolves and other Beautiful Monsters, a dark and twisted journey into the undocumented world of the fantastique.
Penned by a select group of diabolical creatives from right across the known world, prepare yourselves for weird tales and dark poetry concerning undead creatures of the night, lycanthropic monstrosities, necrophilia, underwater beasts, vengeful femme fatales, sexy murderous aliens, killer sheep, Lovecraftian terrors, zombies, monsters of the mind and a whole gruesome selection of other unspeakable grotesques!
Can your nerves stand the intensity of the sheer devilment ahead?!
The mystical side of the known universe. We are all interested in it. Intrigued even. The Dark Arts is something which has captivated the minds of the human race since recorded history first began. The great ancient civilisations - the Romans, the Greeks, the Egyptians - all had their tales of twisted magic, terrifying daemons of the underworlds and more. Modern man may have advanced more technologically, but deep down we still share the same fears of the unknown as our predecessors did. We have wrestled with notions of the mysteries of life for centuries now.
This compendium you hold in your hands is an international exploration of the occult, transgressing culture, class, race and creed. A collection of vivid verse and stories designed to enthral, entertain and educate in equal measure. But please be warned, our documentations are not for the faint of heart or the squeamish either.
Welcome, seeker of knowledge, and enjoy the treats we have in store for you…
An international science fiction anthology paying tribute to the genre masters of page and screen.
Imagine if you will several leading and many upcoming names in the genre coming togetherin a single book to pay tribute to the old classic anthology series, those that helped seal our love of strange, thought-inspiring fantasy.Take a journey into the unknown with us as we present umpteen tales of the unexpected, stretching the outer limits of humanity’s collective imagination through black mirrors and beyond, into that most twilight of zones.There’ll be countless twists and turns, of course, as you join us on a trip into a dimension as vast as the universe and as ancient as time itself; a middling ground between night and day, proven fact and fiction, the answers always lying somewhere in between.Welcome, my friends, to The Outer Zone . . .
ROLL UP, ROLL up, ladles and jellyfish! Please take your seats, sit back and relaxand prepare your weary souls for the most demented, the most extravagant, the most batshit bizarre, foully obscene spectacle known to mortal man – welcome, my fiends, to the Carnival of Freaks!
A Grand Guignol for the modern age, we cackle in the face of all that is deemed good and decent as we subvert your expectations with a collection of twisted tales, vexing verse and abhorrent artwork, the result of a diabolical deal made with Old Nick himself, inked in the blood of innocents (naturally!) by a conglomerative of crazed creatives, some very well-known (infamous even!), established names, alongside their up and coming bright young familiars.
Within Trevor Kennedy’s Bad Dreams and Reflections - a Collection of Weird Horror Stories (from Dark Owl Publishing) you will discover a world of darkened shades of night and long-forgotten angles of reality where good and evil collide.
A plane of malevolence where vampiric cats, insectoid abominations, mischievous genii, demonic entities from Hell, lycanthropic freaks of nature, the sleepless dead, the foul stench of rotting ghouls, and Lovecraftian terrors coexist and stalk the twisted streets and mist-filled entries, as treacherous cursed tomes and the apocalypse wait patiently in the shadows.
Do you dare walk the roads of this forbidden wasteland of unprecedented horror?
Johnny's first book, Back From The Dead: The Legacy of the Pan Book of Horror Stories got him the Project Editor role of the 50th anniversary edition of The Pan Book of Horror Stories. He created the critically acclaimed series Dead Funny: Horror Stories By Comedians and helmed several volumes of Best British Horror. Johnny wrote the introduction to Stephen King’s 30th anniversary edition of Thinner and has spent several years in the archives finding lost works by Algernon Blackwood, Edith Nesbit, Daphne Du Maurier and Arthur Machen, among others. He is the editor of the cornerstone anthology Celtic Weird for the British Library and his second novel, A Man at War (November 2022), sold its audio rights within a day of it being sent to a Radio 4 producer
"Of these two bottles of wine there is one flavoured with a certain poison—the name of which is an unnecessary detail. I am not aware which one contains the deadly stuff. My proposal is that we shall each choose a bottle and drink of it. The chances are equal . . ."
Trapped in the Black Hart during a storm that seems to rage on forever, two men, Pharoah and Hermes, try to outdo the other by telling stories of the weird and uncanny, with our unnamed narrator listening on. With tales of madness, plague, poisoning, atoms, mesmerism and lost noses, At the Change of the Moon is the debut work of an author completely unknown to genre historians and readers, and reprinted for the first time since its initial publication in 1902.
Discovered by Johnny Mains, Mislaid Books is proud to present this new edition of a lost weird fiction collection with a biographical essay by Mains that gives context to Bernard's life and tragic death and examines At the Change of the Moon in greater detail.
Bernard Cecil Blake (1882–1918) was a Hampshire-born author who wrote three works of fiction, At the Change of the Moon (1902), The Peculiar History of Mary Ann Susan (1903) and Cain's Wife (1906). He died during the Battle of Lys in 1918. At the Change of the Moon was his only work of speculative fiction.
From British Fantasy Award-winning editor Johnny Mains comes THEY'RE OUT TO GET YOU - VOLUME ONE: ANIMALS AND INSECTS - the ultimate 'when animals attack' anthology. Featuring killer cows, pigeons, lice and other beasties 'red in tooth and claw', this first volume in a new series published by TK Pulp will make you seriously consider going near any animal or insect ever again.
Author, bookseller, spybreaker, killer. Enter the world of Russell Stickles. Not since George Harvey Bone in Hangover Square has there ever been a singular protagonist as compelling. As sickly. As sick.
From the creator of Dead Funny: Horror Stories by Comedians comes a stunning novel that re-invents the tale of the empty man.
Abandon all hope ye who enter the Inferno as Dean M. Drinkel and TK Pulp take you on an unforgettable journey into the darkest recesses of the 9 Circles of Hell first imagined by Dante . . .
"Dean and his publisher, Trevor Kennedy, have assembled a marvelous team of imaginers and storytellers to offer up these latest visions of Dante’s nine circles of Hell and of the human sins that lead us there. I doff my cap admiringly to Peter Mark May, to Barbie Wilde, to Allison Weir, to Katie Black, to Dean and Trevor themselves, to Tim Dry, and to Adrian Baldwin, and will now step out of their way and let them take your hand and lead you, eagerly or reluctantly, back once more into the Inferno."

Grýla, the Icelandic, cannibalistic "Christmas witch", takes centerstage in this dark seasonal novella from bestselling author Graham Masterton and Karolina Mogielska . . .
The most wonderful time of the year has never been so disturbing . . .
by Benjamin Kurt Unsworth
There are some corners of the universe which have bred the most terrible things – and one such corner is Little Hodbury.
With a haunted tree, mutations in the heart of the British countryside, mythological creatures, and even menaces which plumb the depths of humanity's worst instincts – nobody said living here was easy.
Benjamin Kurt Unsworth's Into Wrack and Ruin presents thirteen stories which detail the various shades of the town and its inhabitants' grief, devastation, chaos and anger – the question is who (or what . . . ) shall survive to tell the tale?
“Enthusiastically gruesome, viscerally vivid, invigoratingly weird, Unsworth’s collection offers an enviably varied feast to nourish the imagination.”
—Ramsey Campbell, author of The Incubations and Ancient Images
