In Burn The Negative, journalist Laura Warren confronts her traumatic past while investigating a cursed horror film, determined to break the cycle of death surrounding it.
In Burn The Negative, journalist Laura Warren returns to Los Angeles to cover the remake of a notorious '90s horror film, one that holds a dark and personal history for her. As a child, she starred in this cursed movie, which has been linked to the mysterious deaths of eight cast and crew members who died in ways that chillingly mirrored the film's on-screen fatalities. Haunted by her past, Laura had to abandon her previous life, adopting a new identity to escape the trauma. However, her return to the scene of the horror ignites old fears and unresolved questions.
Upon her arrival, a shocking event unfolds before her eyes: a man plummets from a building, reigniting the terror associated with the film. This incident forces Laura to confront the chilling reality that the curse may not be over. Determined to uncover the truth behind the deaths and put an end to the cycle of horror, she embarks on a perilous journey into the heart of the film's legacy. As she delves deeper, Laura finds herself entangled in a web of fear, obsession, and the supernatural.
Burn The Negative is a gripping tale that explores the intersection of horror films and the psychological impact they have on those involved. With a blend of suspense and a reflection on the human psyche, this novel keeps readers on the edge of their seats, questioning what is real and what is merely a product of fear and obsession.
Burn the Negative is a creepy, twisty, compulsively readable haunted house of a book built from horror movies and our obsessive response to them. You'll root for Laura and fear the Needle Man. Be sure to make the popcorn and dim the lights * Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts *
Wow! No one can make us feel so much childhood nostalgia and then so much terror as Josh Winning! Absolutely loved it. This one's a killer. -- CJ Leede, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Maeve Fly
The best slashers are the ones where, for all your Randy Meeks-ing, you can’t quite figure out who the killer is. This is one of those. * Stephen Graham Jones *
