Interests

  • General



    Every story you are about to enjoy has been written with a strong base in horror and containing elements of action and fantasy. It's just the way I write. I blend genres without thinking about it for your enjoyment and amazement. The story flows and this is what happens.
  • Music

    rock, pop, metal, most music. I also like Classic hits of the 80s, 90s and today. Iron maiden was THE best band ever. When Bruce left, the band was never the same again. When he returned the magic was gone (it's so sad). Motley Crue were great as well, now they are classic rock.
  • Movies

  • Television

    I don't have that much time for TV. Writing is more important.
  • Books

    I have way too many. Some of the best are: The Dark Half (King’s best), Demogordon (Lumley’s best), Host (Peter James’ best), Night Chills (Koontz), Cold Fire (Koontz), Tick-Tock (Koontz), Island (Laymon), The Travelling Vampire show (Laymon), The Waking (Jenkins), Sings the Nightbird (McCammon), Swan Song (McCammon), Dreamcatcher [book and movie. Book was better] (Stephen King)

    Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my new erotic horror novel THE 13TH is now in stores everywhere! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride!

    There's even a website devoted just to the book, with an interactive map of the places and characters at www.the13th-horror.com.

    Edward Lee called THE 13TH "A double-barreled shotgun blast of macabre entertainment -- an expert amalgamation of grotesquerie, eroticism, mystery, and pitch-black occult horror that no fan of the genre can miss."

    And Gary A. Braunbeck said, "John Everson's The 13th is the first out-and-out horror novel in a long while to actually scare the **** out of me while reading it. It's stylish, extremely well-written, filled with richly-drawn characterizations, and boasts a labyrinthine plot worthy of Umberto Eco. Trust me -- this one will fry your nerves and break your heart."

    “While some may find scholar S.T. Joshi's claim in his introduction that Pulver “can take his place with that of the masters of our genre” (including Poe and Lovecraft) a trifle hyperbolic, all will agree that Pulver is a writer to watch. (Dec.)” – Publisher’s Weekly

    “Whatever your expectations may be, check them at the door. Pulver has a truly unique style for the horror genre, and this collection of short stories is a perfect vehicle for this sort of style . . . Pulver is an original.” -  Rick Kleffel’s The Agony Column

    Hi folks! 
    This is something that's great fun - my very sweet and VERY funny friend Karen Schindler has started a campaign to take my book trailers viral. 
     It's a hell of a challenge. Are you up for it? Drop by Karen's blog for instructions... let's prove what social media can really do! 
    On that page are twitter links so those with twitter can tweet! (Would be kinda fun to be a trending topic!!) Now off you go, and have fun. Let's get the hit counters on the videos jumping!! And don't forget my interview over at Blazing Trailers... http:​/​/​blazingtrailers.​blogspot.​com/​2009/​10/​meet-​cat-​connor.​html

    Hello Lee  ;0)  Wanted to drive by and wish you and your
    family a fun & safe Labor Day Weekend !!  
    I ran into a couple people earlier this week , Caught them jaywalking at
    night .   I beeped the horn to get
    they’re attention and both of them gave me a hand signal telling me that I was
    # 1 !!  I thought that was so nice of
    them, and  decided at that point that I
    would make them part of my celebration this weekend  !!  Hope they appreciated
    it !!  ;0)   Want a bite ??  I’ll
    share ! ;0)  {oo)==v==(oo}

    Hello! I hope you are cool. I just
    wanted to let you know that my new novella, Apartment 14F: An
    Oriental Ghost Story, is out NOW! The publisher, Damnation Books, is
    running a cool promotion called variable pricing, whereby the first
    copy is FREE then the price increases daily. At the moment its
    selling for only $0.80, less than a quarter of the RRP. Get it HERE!

    Loads of other great reads too. After
    all, what the hell else can you buy for $0.80?

    Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:

    “SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.”
    —Famous Monsters of Filmland

    “John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes
