It has been one year since Louisville welcomed a horror bookstore to its ranks of cool, independent offerings. Butcher Cabin Books is a mother/daughter labor of love; Jenny Kiefer and her mother run the show. Jenny has been a horror fan since she was a child and also happens to be a horror writer whose debut novel titled This Wretched Valley will be published in January 2024 by Quirk Books. It has a wild inspiration story which she tells us about in this episode. Her dog Rye also gets in on the interview action, although his horror tale was that dinner might be delayed.
Butcher Cabin Books prides itself in having a large selection of books in stock from not only the Big 4 publishers but also small independent presses where so much of the exciting new horror literature is produced. Via their website, you can get these indie press scary favorites shipped to your door.
Last but not least, the store is sponsoring Butcher Cabin BookFest in Lexington KY on Oct. 18 from 5-9 at Pivot Brewing to benefit the Lexington Public Library. There will be a mass meeting of great horror writers to sign books and chat with readers, including Cynthia Pelayo, JH Markert, Andrew Shaffer, and Laurel Hightower. There will also be book bingo, silent auctions, and more.
