What we’re about
Yup, it's a Book Club! The twist? We only read horror books. 😱 I thought it'd be fun to meet with other horror fans and discuss scary books. We will meet once a month on the last Sunday of the month in the afternoon.💀👻
Like horror movies? Check out my other group Austin Horror Movie Club!

See all- SEPTEMBER -- The Ballad of Black Tom (Cosmic Horror) 🌌☄️😱Pour House, Austin, TX
The Ballad of Black Tom by Victor LaValle
People move to New York looking for magic and nothing will convince them it isn't there.
Charles Thomas Tester hustles to put food on the table, keep the roof over his father's head, from Harlem to Flushing Meadows to Red Hook. He knows what magic a suit can cast, the invisibility a guitar case can provide, and the curse written on his skin that attracts the eye of wealthy white folks and their cops. But when he delivers an occult tome to a reclusive sorceress in the heart of Queens, Tom opens a door to a deeper realm of magic and earns the attention of things best left sleeping.
A storm that might swallow the world is building in Brooklyn. Will Black Tom live to see it break?
