DEAD SOCIALS BY JEFF HILL
OUT NOW ON E-BOOK, PAPERBACK & HARDBACK
Disgraced reporter Jed Hollingsworth returns to his hometown of Sarah Falls to document the story of the worst school shooting in the history of the country. Except it’s the people who didn’t survive he’s interviewing, in preference to those who did. For he’s got no qualms asking the dead to tell their stories.
And when a friend reaches out from beyond the grave via social media, Jed knows there’s more to the story than he could have ever imagined. What dark secrets could possibly link this small town in the Midwest to a haunted mansion in upstate New York where every inhabitant has taken their own lives? This is a scoop to die for.
Dead Socials is a supernatural thriller that explores the world of mass media hysteria. Sometimes the most dangerous weapon is a cell phone. And the only thing more terrifying than ghosts are the people who killed them.
We are delighted to announce that Horror writer Jeff Hill, has signed with Poe Boy Publishing.
Jeff's horror novel Dead Socials was published in 2025 - His new short story collection - Dark Tendencies and Dirty Secrets will be coming summer of 2025
Jeff is a real talented writer, and we can’t wait to publish more and more of his work.

Jude is on a mission. The hitman has traveled the world, meticulously studying his targets, learning their habits, and striking at just the right moment. His only payment is a promise of Salvation. An end to damnation. Now, his final target is in his sights and the seduction of that mark's daughter will afford him the opening he needs.
John Garvey is a fallen angel with a heightened sense of awareness, even if he seems to have been forgotten over the years. A gun runner, drug dealer, and killer, it's this attention to detail that has made him a success at keeping a low profile. Now, he's the target of an unforeseen threat. An assassin forged in the flames of Hell.
Agent Marion Oliver is used to working cases that seem to be unexplainable but a string of grisly murders with common circumstances have her on the trail of a dangerous killer. With the help of Adrian Dillard, an expert in the supernatural, the agent seeks to uncover the truth behind the seemingly biblical crimes.
BLED OUT
Available Now!
D.I. Bambridge and D.C. Lawrence, one an experienced detective
fighting his own demons, one a raw rookie trying to
prove herself, are brought together to hunt for a killer
whose victims are strung up and bled out.
Can they put their own personal problems aside as they seek
the perpetrator of these horrific murders, or will they be
taken to breaking point by a cold and calculating killer in
a city where any innocent person is a potential victim?
On the streets, apprehension and fear mount as the two
detectives battle themselves and each other as they desperate-
ly seek to bring safety to their city and the killer to justice.
Bled Out by Mark Simmons is a tense thriller that leaves the
reader wondering, who exactly is the criminal?
THE RAVEN MASTER WILL SCARE YOU NOW
Legend has it that if the six resident ravens leave the Tower of London, the Kingdom, and the tower itself will fall. It is the Raven Master's calling to protect those regal but, at times, evil birds.
However, the Raven Master holds more secrets in the world’s darkest, dankest dungeon, for he is the master storyteller, older than time itself. Each tale of the macabre and depraved serves as an offering, satiating the birds, and enrapturing them and enticing them to stay. Just like they will you, dear reader…
In Casey Masterson's debut book, The Raven Master shares eighteen tales from the ancient tome of horrors. You will join the ravens as they are regaled with tales of suffering, humanity, and the deepest fears ingrained within us all. Cannibals, murderers, mutilation, and even love, lie in wait to strike when you least expect.
The Raven Master is waiting for you. Do you dare join him and his unkindness for a spell or will you try to fly away?
