‘Sleepaway Camp’ Novelization to be Published in August
Encyclopocalypse Publications will release an official Sleepaway Camp novelization in paperback, mass market paperback, and e-book on August 26.
Based on the 1983 screenplay by Robert Hiltzik, the 210-page book is written by B.R. Flynn. Jennifer Nelson-Duregger pained the new artwork for the trade paperback edition.
Set in the summer of 1983 at Camp Arawak, the story follows Angela Baker, a quiet and withdrawn teenager seeking a fresh start amidst the camp’s lively atmosphere. However, as tensions rise and bodies begin to pile up, Angela’s past traumas resurface, and a darkness within her starts to emerge.
The adaptation delves deeper into Angela’s psyche, exploring themes of trauma, identity, and the societal challenges faced by those who are misunderstood. This novelization not only honors the original film’s legacy but also provides a nuanced narrative that resonates with contemporary readers.
Flynn commented, “As someone who has struggled with issues of gender and identity, the opportunity to shape this classic slasher juggernaut into something that satisfies longtime fans and, hopefully, show them something new, has left me humbled, elated and, in the end, proud.”
Felissa Rose starred in the slasher alongside Jonathan Tiersten, Mike Kellin, Katherine Kamhi, Paul DeAngelo Christopher Collet, and Karen Fields.

The Wasteland Gets Bloody in ‘Ronin’, Midnight Pulp’s First Original Novel Available to Preorder Now
Welcome to the brutality of the wasteland, where it’s kill or be killed.
Oscar Brady’s Ronin is a new take on the post-apocalyptic ’80s exploitation/punksploitation pulp, mixed with the fem-action of Coffy, the playful sexuality of Supervixens, and the cargo-hauling, coast-to-coast adventure of Smokey and the Bandit.
It’s also the first book released by Midnight Pulp, expanding the popular streaming service’s footprint into publishing.
Ronin is available for pre-order now on Amazon.
In Ronin, “Meet Seph. Seph is a badass outsider hero for a f*cked-up, rabid, and gruesome world. All her life, she has scraped by, choosing to fight to live over ending up on some mutant cannibal’s dinner table. When she is assigned a big score to escort a truckload of trafficked sex workers across the country, she fends for her life… and the lives of her priceless cargo. Accepting the seemingly impossible quest was the easy part of the mission. Seph never knows when she will come face-to-face with randy rape riders, monstrous mutants, and feral forest folk.
“Will anybody make it out in one piece? Not if Seph has her say!”
“I am very excited to see where this new venture takes me. My story, Ronin, pays homage to the sensational, over-the-top grindhouse and exploitation films that I love watching, so Midnight Pulp makes perfect sense for me and my story,” said Oscar Brady.
Midnight Pulp. Read something strange.
