DARK LITERATURE AND FILM

A Boundary-Breaking Artist Collective.

Our Story

BAD DREAM BOOKS

is the brainchild of Splatterpunk Award-winning authors Aron Beauregard, Kristopher Triana, and Daniel J. Volpe. Originally, the brand began as a vehicle to release the extreme underground horror series The Obituaries. The idea was to bring no-holds-barred extreme horror directly to the reader, with no publisher or cooperate distributor to veto the themes or imagery of their publications.
It has since expanded into a tight-knit collective of like-minded writers and artists who support one another and the common goal of distributing disturbing literature to the masses.
