This Halloween, the Headless Haunt, our Dark Equestrian, saddles up for a one-shot gathering creepy tales perfect for a night of nightmares. The Headless Horseman Halloween Annual is a new Halloween anthology from Dark Horse Comics and contains macabre merriment from a host of haunting creators, including Angela Slatter, Lukas Ketner, Olivia Stephens, Phillip Sevy, Christie Porter, Leah Kilpatrick, David Dastmalchian, Valeria Burzo, Tyler Crook, Frank Cvetkovic, and more. These five stories are presented by creators who share a love of shudder-inducing, spine-tingling imagery and spooky tales.
“Doing a Halloween-themed anthology has always been a dream of mine, and we were able to assemble a fantastic crew of creators to help carry out that vision. The book is full of fun, creepy, and iconic stories that will scare and delight readers, I can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on it!” said editor Megan Walker.
“Being able to write Horror House with David was such a gift to my spooky heart and seeing Tyler’s beautiful artwork bring it all to life was something truly special.” added writer Leah Kilpatrick. “It’s such a treat to be able to be a part of an anthology series and when that series is about Halloween what more can you want!”
If you’ve ever gotten lost while trick-or-treating, if writer’s block gives you a disproportionate sense of dread, if you won’t walk past that certain house down the road… just in case, if you have ever wondered why the new kid came to town or what could possibly make those spooky horror games even scarier, and especially if you think nothing can frighten you, this anthology is for you.
With plenty of thrills and chills, the 56-page (6.625” x 10.1875”) Headless Horseman Halloween Annual with the main cover by Lukas Ketner will be in comic shops on October 23, 2023 for $7.99.
