Er ist mein Bodyguard. Gefühle sind verboten. Seitdem ich Zeuge eines schweren Verbrechens wurde, sind wir auf der Flucht.

Was passiert, wenn der Mann, der mein Leben retten soll, auch derjenige ist, der mein Herz für immer zerstören kann?

Evan: Mich zu verlieben war nie geplant, schon gar nicht in meinen besten Freund. Doch in Chesters Nähe bemerke ich plötzlich, wie sehr ich den Klang seines Lachens liebe, seine starken Hände und die Art, wie sich der Stoff seiner Arbeitshose um seinen Hintern schmiegt. Hilfe, ich mag ihn viel zu sehr. Dabei bin ich nach Pinecrest gekommen, um abzuschalten und eine schmerzhafte Zurückweisung zu bewältigen. Stattdessen finde ich mich in Chesters Bett wieder, spüre seinen warmen Atem auf meinem Gesicht und habe Gedanken, die ich eigentlich gar nicht haben will.

Horror movies hold a complicated space in the queer community: historically misogynist, and often homo- and transphobic, the genre has also been inadvertently feminist and open to subversive readings. It Came from the Closet features twenty-five original essays by writers speaking to this relationship, through connections both empowering and oppressive. From Carmen Maria Machado on Jennifer’s Body, Jude Ellison S. Doyle on In My Skin, Addie Tsai on Dead Ringers, and many more, these conversations convey the rich reciprocity between queerness and horror.

Jason is getting ready to have the adventure of his life! He and Sandy are heading to the Gathering, which is a conference where the Heads of the Households of the supernatural world network, talk about problems and solutions facing the Houses, and learn a few things. Jason is going just to support Sandy, and figures he’ll have a mildly interesting time and be home soon. Instead, he gets poisoned, fights for his life, meets a whole new nation, learns the history and secrets of runes, has a cosmic encounter, makes many new friends, and finally gets in touch with his godhood.

The Gathering only lasted for seven days, but it ended up being a lot more of an adventure than Jason had expected. Now it’s time to head home. Jason learned a lot, and he’s eager to put that knowledge to use. If his ideas work, it could totally revolutionize how Sandy and the crew make charms—allowing them to heal, train, and defend the House even better than before. So when the rotten mages show up, Jason is still feeling confident in himself and his new knowledge. He’s a warrior mage now and stronger than ever before. What could possibly go wrong?

After getting punched in the face by a golem, Jason discovers he desperately needs two things: A much better offense and a much better defense. To a hammer, everything looks like a nail, and to a mage, everything is solved with magic. That is, unless your magic is small and restricted like Jason’s. Since he can’t use charms, create shields, or throw fireballs, he needs to find a different way to win battles. Fortunately, Tyler is back, and as a Natural, he is ready to teach Jason the Way of the Fist. Among other things. (Nudge nudge, wink wink).
