As the nights grow longer and Halloween looms on the horizon, horror aficionados are in for a spine-tingling treat as Storm King Comics, the brainchild of horror legends John Carpenter and Sandy King, reveals a bone-chilling lineup of four new comics set to terrify readers of all ages.

Leading the sinister charge is DEATH MASK, the inaugural title from Storm King’s brand-new “Dark & Twisted” imprint, a venture into horror that transcends the shadows and delves into the unsettling realities of everyday life. DEATH MASK, a collaboration between Sandy King and New York Times best-selling author Amanda Deibert, thrusts Detective Sonia Maza into a nightmarish investigation of cartel-related murders. As the bodies pile up in increasingly gruesome ways, Maza discovers a serial killer adept at hiding in plain sight, leading her on a perilous journey into the heart of justice, morality, and the blurred line between good and evil. DEATH MASK debuts on September 6 in comic shops and digitally, with a wider release on September 19.

For younger readers seeking a spooky adventure, STANLEY AND THE HAUNTED HOUSE emerges on September 13, introducing Stanley and his friends as they challenge the supernatural in a haunted house. Crafted by writer Jeff Balke, along with artists Walter Carzon and Horacio Ottolini, and letterer Janice Chiang, this comic promises a delightful yet chilling tale perfect for the “spooky season.”

On September 27, brace yourself for the arrival of the ninth volume of JOHN CARPENTER’S TALES FOR A HALLOWEENIGHT, an award-winning graphic novel series that brings together over 20 of the most formidable storytellers and 24 artists. Curated by Carpenter and King, this compendium of creeps will test the mettle of even the bravest readers.

Simultaneously, the trade-paperback version of THE ENVOY by author David J. Schow and artist Andres Esparza will hit online and comic shops, followed by bookstores on October 10. THE ENVOY unfolds a gripping narrative of two scientists racing for Earth’s first contact with aliens, with one encountering a benevolent entity while the other discovers something far more monstrous. Featuring cover art by Cat Staggs, THE ENVOY is a tale of extraterrestrial encounters that may spell Earth’s salvation or doom.
