ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Haley Newlin grew up on the theatrical terror of William Castle's gimmicks and Vincent Price films — both of which have heavily influenced her work. She has published three novels, including Take Your Turn, Teddy, and her latest release, The Film You Are About To See. Her short fiction appears in multiple horror anthologies, including "The Butcher on Blue Jay Way" in Kandisha Press' SLASH-HER and "Trick or Tr(EAT)ment," forthcoming in Death By Tbr Books' Twisted Tales To Tell In The Night: Another Halloween Horror Anthology (June 2026). Newlin holds an MFA in Creative Writing & English and writes for Cemetery Dance Magazine. When she's not writing, she's watching classic horror films or reading. She lives in Indiana with her boyfriend and three dogs.
“In Not Another Sarah Halls I tried to be intentional in expressing what I have come to call the beauty of horror; the genre’s demand of self-reflection and unqiue ability to humble us in our own humanity. Horror makes readers ask what would my manifested fear look like? But most importantly, in inciting self-reflection, it helps readers determine not only what their fears are, but gives them the courage to look their fear in the face and say, ‘This is how I beat you.’"
