Welcome to February and the announcement of which horror movie I will live-tweet this month. Join me for Satan's Slaves on... I might have said that I received the best Christmas present: Shudder TV!

At a book conference in 2018, I received an ARC of it. The cover's deep blue with iridescent writing, the magical description—I was bewitched from the beginning.
