I think I went a little insane while reading it." --Norman Prentiss, author of Haunted Attractions with your Other Father and The Apocalypse-a-Day Desk Calendar"Stylish, atmospheric, and chilling, GOTHIC is an affectionate ode to the horror greats, and an effective reminder that Philip Fracassi is destined to become one of them. One of my favorite reads of the year so far."- Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Kin and Sour Candy""GOTHIC is the literary equivalent of the abyss gazing right back at you from the hellish depths of its pages. Don't lean in too close, lest you fall into this nightmarish novel and never find your way out again." - Clay MacLeod Chapman, author of Ghost Eaters"A diabolical novel! Fracassi pens this one with furious, devilish glee. Readers--and writers--of horror fiction will love it." - Ronald Malfi, author of Come with Me and Black Mouth"A dark and delirious journey into the unraveling of a mind, Gothic is the accursed 21st century bastard child of the 70s horror boom and John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness. Deadly, compelling, and pulls no punches." – Brian Evenson, author of The Glassy, Burning Floor of Hell
