About the Book

On Hal­loween night, fol­low­ing an unnerv­ing phone call from his dia­betic mother, Hale and six of his med school class­mates return to the house where his sis­ter dis­ap­peared years ago. While there is no sign of his mother, some­thing is wait­ing for them there, and has been wait­ing a long time. Writ­ten as a lit­er­ary film treat­ment lit­tered with foot­notes and exper­i­men­tal nuances, Demon The­ory is even parts camp and ter­ror, com­bin­ing glib dia­logue, fas­ci­nat­ing pop cul­ture ref­er­ences, and an intri­cate sub­text as it pur­sues the events of a haunt­ing movie tril­ogy too real to dis­miss. There are books about movies and movies about books, and then there’s Demon The­ory – a refresh­ing and occa­sion­ally shock­ing addi­tion to the increas­ingly pop­u­lar “intel­li­gent hor­rorâ€? genre.
