A Cullman Times Pick of Season's Readings

From Bram Stoker® Award–nominated author Johnny Compton, Midnight Somewhere is a frightening collection of thought-provoking stories perfect for fans of Stephen King’s Night Shift, Tananarive Due’s The Wishing Pool, and the work of Junji Ito.

A man gets into a car that can take him anywhere he can imagine—including the past, into the worst mistake of his life, a memory he does not want to relive, cannot escape, and is even more afraid to alter … 

A seemingly harmless, forgettable film about “alien hand syndrome” inspires a wave of self-harm among viewers—and even stranger things among those who become obsessed with it … 

A woman tries to bring her dead lover to life through a macabre ritual that requires attacking his corpse. Is it because she longs to be with him again … or because the two of them have unfinished business?

The assorted characters in this thrilling collection encounter horrors that range from mysterious to murderous, discovering that darkness can find anyone, anywhere, at any hour of the day. After all, it’s always Midnight Somewhere … 

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Johnny Compton thrives in the short-story form. These stories use the merciless surrealism of Dali to create a more frightening Twilight Zone experience.” Agatha Andrews, host of the She Wore Black podcast
“A genuinely scary collection. Compton shines a light on the walkways between liminal spaces, invigorating tropes with fresh perspectives. From the insidious magnetism of going viral to a family dinner that replaces hunger with madness, each story is a satisfying exploration of ‘what if?’ Midnight Somewhere is sure to draw comparisons to King. Highly recommended!” L. P. Hernandez, author of No Gods, Only Chaos and In the Valley of the Headless Men
“One of the biggest horror releases to close out 2025.” Paste
“This collection…will be perfect to weather the dead of winter.” Book Riot
“Compton uses unsettling prose and well-timed gore to add an extra twist to almost every tale…Good, creepy fun.” Booklist
“This book distills [Compton’s] detailed, disturbing vision into more compact formats…Readers who enjoy the imaginative yet unsettling horror of John Langan and Ananda Lima should bask in the uncanny visions of Compton’s haunting tales. It is a solid collection with no weak stories.” Library Journal
“A strong pick for readers who appreciate thought-provoking horror that blends the uncanny with emotional dread.” The Cullman Times
“One of the freshest voices working in horror fiction today…Compton presents chills and scares across genres in one of the most anticipated books this year.” This Is Horror
