“Duncan P. Bradshaw is irreverently funny and in possession of a real flair for the gory set-piece.” — Chris Kelso ![]() The Sinister Horror Company, in association with EyeCue Productions are proud to reveal the cover of our forthcoming title Cannibals From Outer Space by Duncan P. Bradshaw which will be released on the 26th July 2019. He’s back! The man with one of the most unique voices in modern horror returns to the stable that he helped create. And what a return. Fresh from his success with the popular and bizarre Mr Sucky (a serial killer possessed vacuum cleaner tale), he’s put his stamp on the Sinister Horror Company catalogue with Cannibal Nuns From Outer Space. Expect guts, gore and gags. Expect bizarre twists and turns. Expect meticulous detail to design and layout. Expect something completely different from what you’ve read before. Expect pure Bradshaw. Dunk has this to say about the new release: “I love crappy films, more specifically, the ones with ropey FX, characters that are larger than life, and lots of OTT blood and gore. So when I woke up at my mother's house one morning, the title of this book was the first thing to greet me. Who the hell would want to read a book called cannibal nuns from outer space, let alone write it? Me. Which is the most important thing about any project I approach. I was finally getting to the stage where I'd figured out what it was that I enjoyed writing, a mix of horror, comedy and bizarro, so no sooner had I thought of the title, my brain was working out how I could try and make it entertaining. The book itself is meant to be a b-movie that's gone straight to book, and is presented that way, with fake movie trailers before the story itself, end credits, deleted scenes, even a director's commentary in the super-duper hardback version. It's just meant to be pure unadulterated fun, because that's what reading has always been about to me. A book takes you somewhere else, granted, it uses someone else's words, but the places that they create, and the people you meet? They're yours, and yours alone. So when I chatted to Justin about what I was going to do with it, we both said the same thing, release it through the place that we both helped to build, but he has turned into a majestic oak. So, I'm back, and one thing's for certain, these damned nuns are hungry as hell. You can find out for yourself on Friday 26th July 2019, or, if you're super keen, at Edge Lit a few weeks before.” ![]() Cannibal Nuns From Outer Space blurb: With an encyclopaedic knowledge of cake, and exclusive access to the church’s stockpile of holy weapons, the Order of the Crimson Rosary are on the frontline in the eternal war between good and evil. Whether it’s repelling demonic possession, judging the authenticity of supposed miracles or having the final say on the colour of bunting at church fetes, the organisation's members sacrifice their own freedom to keep the world safe. Father Flynn, the top operative in the UK, has been responsible for a number of recent high profile gaffs. Given an ultimatum, he must choose between returning to his old job of preserving the last microfiche machine in the church’s library, or submit himself for rehabilitation. Yet evil doesn’t take a ticket and wait in line, as the dreaded cannibal nuns from outer space land to begin their annual harvest. Can Flynn get himself sober enough to repel their evil machinations? Or will another idyllic British village become the nun’s latest buffet? One thing’s for certain, to beat them, Father Flynn is going to have to kick the habit. Cannibal Nuns From Outer Space will be available on Kindle, Paperback and Hardback from Amazon and the Sinister Horror Company website from the 26th July 2019. Pre-orders for Paperback currently available via Amazon. Other formats to follow shortly. Cover art by the incredible Adrian Stone.
