I'm going to level with you: if you want some of the best modern Gothics that do surprising things with the foundational conventions of the genre, you really need to read Laura Purcell's The Silent Companions and House of Splinters.
Spooky Readers March pick: The Silent Companions by @spookypurcell.bsky.social! Victorian manor. Creepy wooden figures. A mystery that gets under your skin. It's atmospheric Gothic horror at its finest. Grab your copy and read along! π―οΈπͺ #BookClub #GothicHorror #SpookyReaders

Today on @thefantasyhive.bsky.social Iβm reviewing House of Splinters by @spookypurcell.bsky.social
βexpertly captures the essence of a classic gothic haunted house tale. I was suitably spooked!β
Review Link: fantasy-hive.co.uk/2025/10/hous...
Thanks to @spookypurcell.bsky.social for an excellent talk about her new novel #TheHouseOfSplinters last Thursday. It's a prequel to her most popular novel #TheSilentCompanions. Both are great reads if you like atmospheric, beautifully written Gothic Mysteries. We have #SignedCopies too.
We outdid ourselves
I don't want to exaggerate but the standees for the House of Splinters tour feel like the highlight of my career π
