Kindred is the nightmarish debut horror novel from long-running extreme music and horror journalist Chip McCabe.
Creed Woodhouse is the horror writer alter ego of author/journalist Chip McCabe, who has written extensively about music for publications such as the Chicago Tribune, Hartford Courant, Hartford Advocate, New Haven Advocate, and Metal Insider. He currently pens the blog TheMetalDad.com where he writes about music, horror movies, and parenting, and he hosts the horror movie podcast The Fiendish Five Podcast, available on all major streaming platforms. While McCabe has authored two non-fiction works – 100 Things To Do In Hartford Before You Die and 666 Days of Metal – Kindred is his first fictional horror novel.
In Kindred, it’s June 1987 and Eric Smith, an otherwise average teenager getting ready to graduate high school in rural southern New Jersey, is plagued by nightmares of a strange hallway and a door with a golden knob. When a young girl is found mutilated deep within the nearby Pine Barrens it sets off a string of events that will forever alter the lives of Eric and all those close to him.
As Eric’s terrorizing nightmares grow increasingly realistic, those around him, including friends and family, begin to slowly reveal their true selves and the secrets they have been harboring. As the line between Eric’s dream and reality becomes completely blurred his entire world begins crashing down and pure evil is manifested.
Kindred is available at bookstores including Barnes & Noble HERE.
A signing event for Kindred will take place at Folklore & Fable in Colchester, Connecticut on May 30th from 1-3pm. More info can be found HERE.

“…Kindred offers a super fun and slightly freaky yet compelling storyline for all lovers of a good old-fashioned thriller… Kindred deftly balances its horror elements with mystery elements but never forgets to put its characters first.” – Karen Ponzio
