THE PUMPKIN MAN is a horror thriller featuring a Ouija Board and a mysterious killer who cuts off the heads of his victims and replaces them with pumpkins carved in the likeness of their faces. It was my fifth and final novel for Dorchester Publishing, and it’s a story I’ve always wanted to do a sequel to (but so far, never have quite found the time!).
When it was first released, New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry said of the book, “With The Pumpkin Man, John Everson carves his name into the list of great horror writers. A deliciously creepy novel!”
This week, The Pumpkin Man was added to Amazon’s special “Prime Reading” program in the US and UK, which means that anyone who is a Prime subscriber can download it for free!

Here’s the back cover description:
After her father’s gruesome murder, Jenn needed a place to get away from it all with some friends, to take her mind off her sorrow. The empty seaside cottage she inherited seemed perfect. Jenn didn’t know that the cottage held arcane secrets, mysteries long hidden and best left alone. She didn’t realize until it was too late that the old books and Ouija board she found there really do hold great power. And it was only after her friend’s headless body was discovered that she knew the legend of the local bogeyman was no mere legend at all. An evil has been unleashed, a terrifying figure previously only spoken of in whispers. But now the whispers will become screams. Beware…The Pumpkin Man.
