About this listen

From the mind of horror master Garth Marenghi: a masterful multi-volume horror masterpiece thirty years in the making...

Dare you crack open the TerrorTome? (Mind the spine)

When horror writer Nick Steen gets sucked into a cursed typewriter by the terrifying Type-Face, Dark Lord of the Prolix, the hellish visions inside his head are unleashed for real. Forced to fight his escaping imagination - now leaking out of his own brain - Nick must defend the town of Stalkford from his own fictional horrors, including avascular-necrosis-obsessed serial killer Nelson Strain and Nick's dreaded throppleganger, the Dark Third.

Can he and Roz, his frequently incorrect female editor, hunt down these incarnate denizens of Nick's rampaging imaginata before they destroy Stalkford, outer Stalkford and possibly slightly further?

From the twisted genius of horror master Garth Marenghi - Frighternerman, Darkscribe, Doomsage (plus Man-Shee) - come three dark tales from his long-lost multi-volume epic: TerrorTome.

Can a brain leak?
(Yes, it can)

A great writer can only write a book this bad.

The sharp comedy is written for fans of both reading and writing and some sentences contain multiple levels of jokes. I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end and my only regret is that it didn't go on longer.

brilliant

I would have used proper punctuation in the title of my review, but I believe that that is the crutch of cowards with no imagination. You now have the ability to sample the most brilliant mind and horror in an audio format for the first time and to not do so would be a sign of ill-breeding. I cannot recommend this enough. would ask anyone who is not cheap or choosing to live their life in a less than honorable fashion to make this a part of your horror collection.

Brilliant

Amazing audiobook reading - laughed out loud - worth listening JUST for the best post-book announcements (the credit and copyright bits) I’ve ever heard!

Reads like an unhinged Clive Barker

I thought it would be as bad as his failed TV show, but without having to worry about cinematography, sound, and actors, Garth Marenghi commands your attention with a wide variety of words, unpredictable storytelling, and fearless voice acting. Marenghi has mercifully inserted trigger warnings before sections deemed too radical, too...dangerous...by his publisher.

Garth has written more books than he's read.

If you loved Dark Place, you'll love this. I need Incarcerat to be released in the US asap.

Marenghi has raised the bar on horror

Hideously graphic. Aggressively erotic. Emotionally taxing. This is a true page turner...if this audio presentation had pages. Marenghi has once again raised the bar of the horror genre. No other book on the planet has ever made me physically ill to the degree Terrortome has. A true exploration of the farthest reaches of the darkest places in the most creatively horrific mind.

A love letter to Darkplace fans

If you've enjoyed Matthew Holness, especially Darkplace, then this was made especially for you. The thing I personally love so much about his writing is that he puts so much effort and thoughtfulness into the aesthetic of low-effort, thoughtlessness.

I laughed every few minutes and so will you.

Greetings, friend. l hope you're sitting un-comfortably, on your sofa, or beanbag, if that's how you choose to live your life.

They would not make this show today. They would not make it. You know, it was way the hell out there. You know, we were young, we were physically fit, and we were challenging logic.

a perfect spooky story

Binge-worthy and hysterical, I listened to the whole book in a single sitting. If you like Garth Marenghi's Dark Place you'll assuredly enjoy this!

Garth Marenghi does it again

I'd listen to 12 more of these. Absolutely stunning and so so funny, I mean scary. Glad to hear one of the greatest horror talents of our time in audiobook form!
