Many fans of Cullen Bunn and Tyler Crook’s acclaimed Dark Horse Series Harrow County were upset to see Emmy’s story wrap up last summer.  Luckily, Bunn, Crooks, and new artist Naomi Franquiz (Misfit City, The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl) will return to the world of Harrow County this December with a new four issue series called Tales from Harrow County: Death’s Choir.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hitting the stores next week from Dynamite Entertainment is the first issue of the new Pumpkinhead mini-series written by Cullen Bunn. Bunn, the recipient of the 2016 Horror Comic Award for Writer of the Year, crafts a story that fits perfectly into the Pumpkinhead universe. Bunn weaves a clever story that could make for an interesting sequel for the film franchise.

For thirty years the demon has remained quiet, but after a reckless driver kills a pair of children, the monster returns for vengeance.  In this adaptation, Bunn provides adequate enemies for Pumpkinhead, as he squares off against a backwoods crime syndicate protecting the driver. A short backup story featuring the witch, Haggis, also appears at the end of the book. read more

We caught up with writer, Cullen Bunn to talk about his new series from BOOM! Studios, The Unsound.

Horror News Network: Can you talk a bit about how you came up with the concept for The Unsound?

Cullen Bunn: I think it is fairly obvious if you read a lot of my work that sanity (or the loss of sanity) is something that I’ve always been fascinated and terrified by. I live in mortal terror of losing my own mental faculties. When I first started brainstorming this book, I wanted to explore the idea of a deepening madness under the auspices of a haunted house story. Over time, the “house” became a mental hospital. read more
