Haunt Publishing
Launched in 2019 and is an independent publisher of Gothic, horror and dark fiction books. We publish books with the curse of being unputdownable, that keep a reader up all night. Books that provoke unease, terror, and dread. Basically, Haunt publishes books that haunt readers long after consuming them.
