About The Book
Aliens return to a desolate Earth with enslaved humans to enter a haunted house, and a mummy wakes up in South Boston with only drug dealers and a YouTube film snob to stop it, in two genre-bending horror novellas that make up this double creature feature.
The Last House on Earth: An abducted couple, who love each other more than life itself, find themselves under the thumb of nearly omnipotent aliens. These aliens use a group of humans to navigate a celestial haunted house said to hold the secrets of life and death. Can the couple survive the house and the aliens to finally find peace in their love?
Death Walks South Boston: A crew of outcasts, including a drug dealer and a struggling YouTube streamer, face an ancient ancestral evil that has come back from the dead to take over the world of the living. If they can't stop it, Death will walk through the entire world and make it into its image.
Across both short novels, the editor-in-chief of cult indie press CLASH Books, Christoph Paul, paints a dark world where the super-rich (human and non-human) own technology, and it’s up to humanity to stop them from spreading evil.

"Christoph Paul just smacked the Splatterpunk genre in the teeth. Gore… check! Social commentary… check! A Splatterpunk/Sci-fi masterpiece where we learn that every once in a magical while, righteousness can still hand evil its ass. Punk af, go get this one."
– Justin Holley, author of Hellweg's Keep and Blood from the Stars
