STEVE NALLON’S GHOST STORIES
STEVE NALLON’S GHOST STORIES is a darkly humorous collection of spooky tales with modern takes on classic supernatural story traditions. There are haunted houses, enchanted mirrors, spooky graveyards, ghosts-on-the-road, avenging witches, and all kinds of blood-curdling horrors. Each yarn has its own distinctive style, from scream-fest terror and psychological fear to comedic mischief and warm-hearted tales of redemption. “Christmas angels, mysterious shadows, and a theatre ghost... what’s not to love in this madcap, spooktastic collection of tales?” – Sally McDonald, THE SUNDAY POST. “Don’t be fooled by the cover of Steve Nallon’s Ghost Stories ... beneath that surface, as you’ll find out in this collection of tales, is a mind that inhabits the catacombs of hell.” – Nigel Watson, STARBURST magazine.
CLASSIC MONSTERS OF THE MOVIES magazine
Since its launch in 2015, CLASSIC MONSTERS OF THE MOVIES magazine has built up a highly passionate, global following among ‘monster kids’ and cinema historians. The magazine is known for its high-end production values, its elegant layout, its rare publicity stills painstakingly cleaned up and digitally restored, and its exceptional cover art. In fact, each edition is produced as a luxury collectors’ item. Steve Nallon joined the team of regular contributors to CLASSIC MONSTERS in 2025. Editor, Nige Burton, said of Steve’s series of four articles on The Haunted House Movie, “As absorbing as it is authoritative... trust me, you’ve never seen this particular subgenre explored to this level.”
THE SWIDGERS
THE SWIDGERS is a Young Adult fantasy and time-travel adventure book series that follows the story of William Arthur, an orphan who discovers he is a ‘Swidger’ – a cosmic being who lives in the real world but has the unique instinct and power to save lives by making tiny, seemingly insignificant decisions that alter timelines. William is mentored by Granny, an eccentric and indomitable figure who serves as his funny yet wise companion as they navigate the mysteries of time and space. “Grabs you from the beginning and doesn’t let go. Steve is a master mimic and uses all his skills to create a powerful and dramatic tale of mystery!” – Rory Bremner, BAFTA-winning writer and performer. “A rambunctious riot of a book with a totally unpredictable plot – I never knew where I was going to be taken next! Granny is a joy of a character; delightfully irreverent with wicked one-liners.” – Joseph Elliott, YA author of THE GOOD HAWK, THE BROKEN RAVEN and THE BURNING SWIFT.
