Johnny Grissom—nicknamed "Johnny Gruesome" by his high school classmates—is a heavy metal hellion who loves to party, watch horror movies, and get into fights. One winter night, Johnny's car, The Death Mobile, is discovered submerged beneath the icy surface of Willow Creek, with Johnny's waterlogged corpse inside. The townspeople believe that his death was accidental. But soon the murders begin—horrible acts of violent vengeance that hint at a deepening mystery and terror yet to come. A headless body is discovered at the high school, a priest is forced to confront his own misdeeds, and a mortician encounters the impossible. The sound of a car engine and maniacal laughter fill the night, and one by one, Johnny's enemies meet a grisly demise. The students at Red Hill High School begin to fear for their lives—especially Johnny's closest friends, who all harbor a dark secret.

Paul Wilson (The Last Christmas: A Repairman Jack Novel) - With interview - Thomas F. Monteleone (Night Train) - With Interview - Jeff Strand (Cold Dead Hands) - Richard Christian Matheson (Brothers In Arms) - With Interview - And so much More! “Rick Hipson is that rare talent who conducts his interviews with sheer professionalism. His questions are penetrating, original, and sometimes surprising. His reviews reveal a person who clearly cares about his duty to write with clarity, perceptivity, and a deep understanding of his subject’s place in genre history. His ability to recognize such subtleties as style and influences marks him as more than a cut above the usual reviewer.” - Thomas F. Monteleone, 5-time winner of the Bram Stoker Award “Dark Bites is a book full of reviews and interviews swimming in the horror culture. If you’d like to discover a new movie, book, or find out the thoughts and secrets behind them, this is for you. Full disclosure: I’m in it. Twice. And I’m the least interesting person in there. LOL! Rick has a way of asking questions that dig deeper than other interviewers. He does his homework, he looks into past projects and makes sure you find out what’s coming next. This is a collection of reviews and interviews that have appeared in other locations such as the Dark Bites website and others, but you will also find some new work in here as well. Personally, after reading one of the reviews, I went to find the short film right away. Rick is honest, and I know immediately if that work he’s talking about is “for me” or not. Covering a range of topics, if you’re into horror and looking for anything ranging from schlocky to serious, zombies or psychological, Rick Hipson won’t steer you wrong.” - Dean Italiano author of Pain Machine, The Starving Queen “If you love horror, in any capacity, I highly recommend this book of interviews and articles that has been lovingly and painstakingly put together by Rick Hipson. It’s not often that I am asked to review non-fiction material but his was well-worth my time. Full of amazing in-depth reviews of books and movies, along with interviews with so many well-known authors, producers, actors and directors that I cannot name them all here.” - Candace Nola (Uncomfortably Dark)
