A Estrada da Noite
Joe Hill
Uma lenda do rock pesado, o cinqüentão Judas Coyne coleciona objetos macabros: um livro de receitas para canibais, uma confissão de uma bruxa de 300 anos atrás, um laço usado num enforcamento, uma fita com cenas reais de assassinato. Por isso, quando fica sabendo de um estranho leilão na internet, ele não pensa duas vezes antes de fazer uma oferta.
"Vou ´vender´ o fantasma do meu padrasto pelo lance mais alto..."
Por 1.000 dólares, o roqueiro se torna o feliz proprietário do paletó de um morto, supostamente assombrado pelo espírito do antigo dono. Sempre às voltas com seus próprios fantasmas - o pai violento, as mulheres que usou e descartou, os colegas de banda que traiu -, Jude não tem medo de encarar mais um.
Mas tudo muda quando o paletó finalmente é entregue na sua casa, numa caixa preta em forma de coração. Desta vez, não se trata de uma curiosidade inofensiva nem de um fantasma imaginário. Sua presença é real e ameaçadora.
O espírito parece estar em todos os lugares, à espreita, balançando na mão cadavérica uma lâmina reluzente - verdadeira sentença de morte. O roqueiro logo descobre que o fantasma não entrou na sua vida por acaso e só sairá dela depois de se vingar. O morto é Craddock McDermott, o padrasto de uma fã que cometeu suicídio depois de ser abandonada por Jude.
Numa corrida desesperada para salvar sua vida, Jude faz as malas e cai na estrada com sua jovem namorada gótica. Durante a perseguição implacável do fantasma, o astro do rock é obrigado a enfrentar seu passado em busca de uma saída para o futuro. As verdadeiras motivações de vivos e mortos vão se revelando pouco a pouco em A estrada da noite - e nada é exatamente o que parece.
Ancorando o sobrenatural na realidade psicológica de personagens complexos e verossímeis, Joe Hill consegue um feito raro: em seu romance de estréia, já é considerado um novo mestre do suspense e do terror.

Joe Hill
The rain lashes the grassy dunes of Brody Island, and seagulls scream above the bay. A slender figure in a raincoat carries a large wicker basket, which looks like it might be full of melons…covered by a bloodstained scrap of the American flag. This is the story of June Branch, a young woman trapped with four cunning criminals who have snatched her boyfriend for deranged reasons of their own. Now she must fight for her life with the help of an impossible 8th-century Viking axe that can pass through a man’s neck in a single swipe-and leave the severed head still conscious and capable of supernatural speech. Each disembodied head has a malevolent story of its own to tell, and it isn’t long before June finds herself in a desperate struggle to hack through their lies and manipulations...racing to save the man she loves before time runs out. Plus, in the premiere chapter of the backup story “Sea Dogs,” which sails across all the Hill House Comics titles!

Heart Shaped Box
Joe Hill
When Judas Coyne heard someone was selling a ghost on the internet, there was no question what he was going to do. It was perfect for his collection of the macabre and the grotesque: the cannibal’s cookbook, the witch’s confession, the authentic snuff movie. As an ageing death-metal-rock-God, buying a ghost almost qualifies as a business expense.
Besides, Jude thinks he knows all about ghosts. Jude has been haunted for years .. by the spirits of bandmates dead and gone, the spectre of the abusive father he fled as a child, and the memory of the girl he abandoned, who killed herself. But this ghost is different. Delivered to his doorstep in a black heart-shaped box, the latest addition to Jude’s collection makes the house feel cold. It makes the dogs bark. And it means to chase Jude from his home and make him run for his life...
Heart-Shaped Box
Joe Hill
An aging death-metal rock god, Judas Coyne, is a collector of the macabre: a cookbook for cannibals... a used hangman's noose... a snuff film. But nothing he possesses is as unlikely or as dreadful as an item he learns is for sale on the Internet. For a thousand dollars, Jude will become the proud owner of a dead man's suit, said to be haunted by the deceased's restless spirit. Judas has spent a lifetime coping with ghosts - of an abusive father, of the lovers he callously abandoned, of the bandmates he betrayed - so what's one more?
But what UPS delivers to his door in a black heart-shaped box is no imaginary or metaphorical ghost, it's the real thing. And suddenly the suit's previous owner is everywhere - behind the bedroom door... seated in Jude's restored vintage Mustang... staring out from his widescreen TV - dangling a gleaming razor blade on a chain from one hand...
Heart Shaped Box - Kotak Berbentuk Hati
Joe Hill
Hanya karena iseng, Judas Coyne---vokalis band beraliran death metal rock---membeli hantu dari situs lelang di Internet berupa setelan milik orang mati.
Sejak setelan itu datang, dalam kotak berbentuk hati, mulai terjadi hal-hal aneh. Hantu pemilik setelan tersebut benar-benar datang, membawa pendulum berbandul silet yang bisa memengaruhi Jude sehingga melakukan hal-hal gila, ia bahkan nyaris menembak kekasihnya.
Sejauh ini, yang mampu menjaga kewarasan Jude cuma anjing-anjingnya. Entah bagaimana, anjing-anjing itu sepertinya bisa menghalau bujukan si hantu.
Tetapi ia tak bisa terus mengandalkan mereka...
Horns
Joe Hill
Ignatius Perrish spent the night drunk and doing terrible things. He woke up the next morning with a thunderous hangover, a raging headache . . . and a pair of horns growing from his temples.
At first Ig thought the horns were a hallucination, the product of a mind damaged by rage and grief. He had spent the last year in a lonely, private purgatory, following the death of his beloved, Merrin Williams, who was raped and murdered under inexplicable circumstances. A mental breakdown would have been the most natural thing in the world. But there was nothing natural about the horns, which were all too real.
Once the righteous Ig had enjoyed the life of the blessed: born into privilege, the second son of a renowned musician and younger brother of a rising late-night TV star, he had security, wealth, and a place in his community. Ig had it all, and more—he had Merrin and a love founded on shared daydreams, mutual daring, and unlikely midsummer magic.
But Merrin's death damned all that. The only suspect in the crime, Ig was never charged or tried. And he was never cleared. In the court of public opinion in Gideon, New Hampshire, Ig is and always will be guilty because his rich and connected parents pulled strings to make the investigation go away. Nothing Ig can do, nothing he can say, matters. Everyone, it seems, including God, has abandoned him. Everyone, that is, but the devil inside. . . .
İtfaiyeci
Joe Hill
Locus En İyi Korku Romanı Ödülü
Goodreads Yılın En İyi Korku Romanı Ödülü
2000'li yıllarda pek çok yazar korku türünde eserler verip sıradışı işler ortaya koydu ancak bu zaman aralığında Joe Hill kadar istikrarlı ve her yapıtı modern bir korku klasiği olan başka bir yazar ortaya çıkmadı. İtfaiyeci de hem distopyayla teması hem sosyal medya çağını yansıtması hem de özgünlüğü ile yalnızca günümüzün değil, Hill'in de en iyi yapıtlarından.
Kimse nereden geldiğini bilmese de bir salgın şehirleri yavaş yavaş ele geçiriyordu: Ejderpulu. Hastalığın tedavisi mümkün olmayan sporları, ele geçirdiği vücutları aniden havaya uçuruyordu. Milyonlarca insan bu hastalıktan mustaripti artık. Her köşe başı alev alevdi. Medeniyetin sonunu ateş, kül ve duman getiriyordu.
Yeni hamile kalmış hemşire Harper Grayson da bu hastalığa yakalanmıştı ve alevlere karışması an meselesiydi. Ama belki bebeğini kurtarabilirdi… tabii o kadar uzun yaşayabilirse. İşte böyle bir zamanda İtfaiyeci denen bir adamın hikâyelerini duymaya başladı. Ejderpulunu taşıyan ama onunla yaşamayı öğrenmiş hatta hastalığın sebep olduğu alevleri kontrol edip bu gücünü insanları kurtarmak için kullanan bir deliydi o. Tüm dünya alevler tarafından yutulmadan önce İtfaiyeci'yi bulmak, sırlarını öğrenmek için Harper'ın gözünü karartmaktan başka çaresi yoktu artık.
İtfaiyeci seni kurtarmaya geliyor. Sakinliğini yitirme.

King Sorrow
Joe Hill
Arthur Oakes is a reader, a dreamer, and a student at Rackham College, Maine, renowned for its frosty winters, exceptional library, and beautiful buildings. But his idyll—and burgeoning romance with Gwen Underfoot—is shattered when a local drug dealer and her partner corner him into one of the worst crimes he can imagine: stealing rare books from the college library.
Trapped and desperate, Arthur turns to his closest friends for comfort and help. Together they dream up a wild, fantastical scheme to free Arthur from the cruel trap in which he finds himself. Wealthy, irrepressible Colin Wren suggests using the unnerving Crane journal (bound in the skin of its author) to summon a dragon to do their bidding. The others—brave, beautiful Alison Shiner; the battling twins Donna and Donovan McBride; and brainy, bold Gwen—don’t hesitate to join Colin in an effort to smash reality and bring a creature of the impossible into our world.
But there’s nothing simple about dealing with dragons, and their pact to save Arthur becomes a terrifying bargain in which the six must choose a new sacrifice for King Sorrow every year—or become his next meal.

The Fireman
Joe Hill
From the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of NOS4A2 and Heart-Shaped Box comes a chilling novel about a worldwide pandemic of spontaneous combustion that threatens to reduce civilization to ashes and a band of improbable heroes who battle to save it, led by one powerful and enigmatic man known as the Fireman.
The fireman is coming. Stay cool.
No one knows exactly when it began or where it originated. A terrifying new plague is spreading like wildfire across the country, striking cities one by one: Boston, Detroit, Seattle. The doctors call it Draco Incendia Trychophyton. To everyone else it’s Dragonscale, a highly contagious, deadly spore that marks its hosts with beautiful black and gold marks across their bodies—before causing them to burst into flames. Millions are infected; blazes erupt everywhere. There is no antidote. No one is safe.
Harper Grayson, a compassionate, dedicated nurse as pragmatic as Mary Poppins, treated hundreds of infected patients before her hospital burned to the ground. Now she’s discovered the telltale gold-flecked marks on her skin. When the outbreak first began, she and her husband, Jakob, had made a pact: they would take matters into their own hands if they became infected. To Jakob’s dismay, Harper wants to live—at least until the fetus she is carrying comes to term. At the hospital, she witnessed infected mothers give birth to healthy babies and believes hers will be fine too. . . if she can live long enough to deliver the child.
Convinced that his do-gooding wife has made him sick, Jakob becomes unhinged, and eventually abandons her as their placid New England community collapses in terror. The chaos gives rise to ruthless Cremation Squads—armed, self-appointed posses roaming the streets and woods to exterminate those who they believe carry the spore. But Harper isn’t as alone as she fears: a mysterious and compelling stranger she briefly met at the hospital, a man in a dirty yellow fire fighter’s jacket, carrying a hooked iron bar, straddles the abyss between insanity and death. Known as The Fireman, he strolls the ruins of New Hampshire, a madman afflicted with Dragonscale who has learned to control the fire within himself, using it as a shield to protect the hunted . . . and as a weapon to avenge the wronged.
In the desperate season to come, as the world burns out of control, Harper must learn the Fireman’s secrets before her life—and that of her unborn child—goes up in smoke.

When he’s loaned a decrepit old baby stroller to cart his groceries home, the rickety squeak of the wheels comforts him. So do the sweet coos of a baby Willy knows can’t be real. Can it? In this twisted thicket, wishes come true—with a price.
Joe Hill’s The Pram is part of Creature Feature, a collection of devilishly creepy stories that tingle the spine and twist the mind. They can be read or listened to in one petrifying sitting.

A young man who has improbably escaped death twice reveals his secret in a spine-tingling short story by New York Times bestselling author Joe Hill.
Martin Lorensen is a twenty-three-year-old counselor for disturbed teenagers. He’s bright, compassionate, attractive, and outgoing. He’s also—and this is the most interesting thing—not dead. Martin has improbably survived not one but two deadly disasters that claimed dozens of lives. The kid is riding one hell of a lucky streak. Two federal agents think there is something darker at play. Now that they’ve arranged to interview Martin, they want answers. Martin is ready to share everything he knows. One thing is for certain: when it comes to escaping death, luck doesn’t figure into it at all.

Ο πυροσβέστης
Joe Hill
Κανείς δεν ξέρει πώς και από πού ξεκίνησε η πανδημία.
Το FOX έλεγε ότι ο μύκητας εξαπολύθηκε από το ISIS, με τη χρήση σπορίων που είχαν παρασκευαστεί από τους Ρώσους τη δεκαετία του 1980. Το MSNBC έλεγε ότι είχε δημιουργηθεί από βιολόγους της Χαλιμπάρτον και τον είχαν κλέψει φανατικοί Χριστιανοί κολλημένοι με την Αποκάλυψη. Το CNN ανέφερε και τις δύο θεωρίες.
Οι γιατροί το αποκαλούν Draco incendia trychophyton. Για όλους τους υπόλοιπους είναι απλώς το Δρακόστιγμα. Ένα ιδιαιτέρως μεταδοτικό σπόριο που σημαδεύει το σώμα όποιου προσβληθεί από αυτό με μαύρα και χρυσά στίγματα –μέχρι την αυτανάφλεξη.
Δεν υπάρχει θεραπεία. Κανείς δεν είναι ασφαλής.
Η Χάρπερ Γκρέισον είναι σχολική νοσοκόμα. Είναι έγκυος και έχει μολυνθεί από το Δρακόστιγμα. Και καθώς ο κόσμος γύρω της μετατρέπεται σε στάχτες, το μόνο που θέλει είναι να ζήσει. Έστω μέχρι να καταφέρει να γεννήσει το παιδί της.
Και τότε, ο Πυροσβέστης έρχεται…
Ο πολυβραβευμένος Τζο Χιλ επιστρέφει με μια συναρπαστική ιστορία επιβίωσης στο τέλος του κόσμου και παρουσιάζει ένα καθηλωτικό δυστοπικό μυθιστόρημα, το οποίο ψηφίστηκε από το παγκόσμιο αναγνωστικό κοινό ως το Καλύτερο Βιβλίο Τρόμου στα Goodreads Choice Awards 2016.
