#shatnerquake

This collection of tales from the mind that brought you Shatnerquake & Cripple Wolfis dark, weird, and yes, Bizarro af. It is composed of some previously published stories in addition to some brand new ones, including the titular story. This is a rare opportunity to see Jeff Burk’s range as a storyteller, beyond horror & absurdism. He shares the stories behind the stories, which are as entertaining as the stories themselves. We love this collection & we think you will too!

The Very Ineffective Haunted House

There’s something about people who are failures but refuse to ever give up that I find charming. The idea of someone who is terrible at something but still keeps trying despite the fact that any rational person would have given up long ago is inspiring to me. I know a lot of artists and writers look positively upon their art but I never feel that way about my stories, I can only see their faults but other people seem to like them so I keep writing them. This is another one of those stupid stories and it’s about failure and just leaning into that failure.

But instead of it being about a writer who drinks too much and plays with cats all the time it’s about a haunted house who only wanted to be an artist.
