They say it’s hard getting into the movies…try getting out!Fresh from the cutting room floor, The Silver Scream exposes the bloodiest behind-the-scenes details of the most gruesome, shocking, true-crime tragedy of our time. Part autopsy, part grisly director’s “cut,” this is the only book with a comprehensive exploration inside the mind of America’s notorious, celluloid-obsessed, rock star turned cinema-copycat murderer, Spencer Charnas. Bayonet Award–winning television reporter Roy Merkin is the only storyteller in possession of the journals scrawled by disgraced psychotherapist Dr. Ian Black. The Silver Scream reconstructs, with unflinching detail, how fiction became fact, art imitated death, and the most horrific movie murders by the likes of Jason, Leatherface, Freddy, Michael, and the rest became real. Merkin courageously slashes open the ghoulish mind and tortured nightmares of Spencer himself, probing deeply, with razor-sharp precision. Learn how the box office created so many oblong boxes. Understand why this rock n’ roll heartthrob chose to stop so many human hearts.

Spencer Charnas is dead. That's the bold claim detailed by Roy Merkin in Welcome to Horrorwood, written in the maverick journalist's courageous and virile prose. This is a forbidden chronicle ripped from the controversial manuscript of District Attorney Marcie Kent, the very woman who put Spencer Charla's on trial, and then put him in the ground. The people and organizations who want the world to believe that the person, thing, or artificial intelligence masquerading as Spencer at concerts, conventions, and correctional facilities around the globe is the real deal have fought mercilessly to keep this book from publication. Welcome to Horrorwood unpacks the trial of the century with a first-person view as Merkin's razor-sharp annotations guide readers through Kent's obsessive psyche to reveal deep layers of conspiracy, collusion, and cavalier con jobs. Welcome to Horrorwood is the book they don't want you to read. Coverage you can count on, from the Merkin you trust.
