BLOODY BOOK CLUB • Daisy Johnson (The Hotel)
Bloody Book Club, our monthly series of interviews with horror authors, welcomes Daisy Johnson, author of the short story collection The Hotel

Her new book is a collection of interconnected short stories swirling around a haunted hotel in the Fens, a place of mythos, rumours and secrets.
