Stephen King’s New Novel ‘The Outsider’ Releases Today!

Published

on

There has been a lot of buzz about all the Stephen King adaptations hitting the big and small screens, but the legendary horror writer isn’t resting on his laurels. King’s newest novel The Outsider has finally released today, and the Hitchockian plot promises to be one horrifying crime thriller full of twists and turns.

The story revolves around the gruesome and baffling murder case of a young boy in the small town of Flint City, Oklahoma. Popular local man Terry Maitland becomes the prime suspect with damning evidence that places him at the scene. Terry’s apparent guilt sends shock waves through the community. However, there is just as strong contradictory evidence that absolves Maitland of the crime.

How could someone be in two places at the same time? Has Maitland been framed? You can’t rule out the possibility of a supernatural element, such as an evil doppelganger or worse, given King’s track record.

You can read the official plot synopsis right here.

King also released the short story Laurie free online last week, which he described on Twitter as an “appetizer” to The Outsider. Sounds like just the thing to wet the appetites of fans until they receives their copy of his new book. The short story is available here on King’s website.

Who knows? With how quickly the adaptation rights for Stephen King stories have been getting snatched up, maybe in the future we’ll see The Outsider hitting screens as well. But fans definitely shouldn’t wait around for that! Be sure to pick up a paper or audio book copy in stores and online today!

Eli Roth (Cabin Fever) and Crypt TV are knocking it out of the park with their new VR show, The Faceless Lady. For those unaware, this is the first fully scripted VR horror show on the market.

Even for masters of horror like Eli Roth and Crypt TV, this is a monumental undertaking. However, if I trust anyone to change the way that we experience horror, it would be these two legends.

Ripped from the pages of Irish folklore, The Faceless Lady tells the story of a tragic spirit cursed to wander the halls of her castle for all of eternity. However, when three young couples are invited to the castle for a series of games, their fates may soon change.

So far, the story has provided horror fans with a gripping game of life or death that doesn’t look as if it will slow down in episode five. Luckily, we have an exclusive clip that may be able to satiate your appetites until the new premiere.

Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?

Published

A new trailer for the movie formerly known as Pussy Island just dropped and it has us intrigued. Now with the more restrained title, Blink Twice, this  Zoë Kravitz-directed black comedy is set to land in theaters on August 23.

The film is packed with stars including Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, Alia Shawkat, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Christian Slater, Kyle MacLachlan, and Geena Davis.

The trailer feels like a Benoit Blanc mystery; people are invited to a secluded location and disappear one by one, leaving one guest to figure out what is going on.

In the film, a billionaire named Slater King (Channing Tatum) invites a waitress named Frida (Naomi Ackie) to his private island, “It’s paradise. Wild nights blend into sun-soaked days and everyone’s having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.”
