S.A. Barnes Interview: From Space Horror to Dark Academia Romantasy

S.A. Barnes Interview: From Space Horror to Dark Academia Romantasy

Claustrophobic space stations. Corporate corruption bleeding into deep space. A doomed luxury cruiser lost for decades, its halls still wet. S.A. Barnes built a devoted readership on sci-fi horror that traps you in the dark with nowhere to run.

Now she’s swapped the wreckage for a dusty university library. But don’t mistake the change of clothes for a change of temper.

Pixerina: A Haunting by Joanne Anderton Review – Suburban Gothic That Cracks Ordinary Walls

Pixerina: A Haunting by Joanne Anderton Review – Suburban Gothic That Cracks Ordinary Walls

A house on a hill should feel safe. In  Pixerina: A Haunting by Joanne Anderton, it does not. This suburban Gothic novella transforms familiar domestic spaces into something quietly sinister. The story follows Rebecca, an artist trapped between creative frustration and the weight of unspoken losses. She finds an old house. She becomes obsessed. Anderton builds dread not through jump scares but through atmosphere so thick you feel it in your ribs.
