Gaming meets Literature
I’m beyond excited to announce the official release of my very first sci-fi horror novel: Apocalyptical Horror – Undead Novel! A project that actually started out as a simple concept briefing for a video game somehow evolved into a full-blown book – and now it’s finally out there.
An exclusive preview (PDF) is now available online – check it out!
This story draws from dystopian sci-fi, conspiracy theories, and those unsettling thoughts that sneak into your everyday life—like a bug corrupting a seemingly perfect simulation.
What’s Apocalyptical Horror about?
Apocalyptical Horror is a dark science fiction horror novel that dives deep into alien threats, psychological unraveling, government conspiracies, and a creeping sense of societal detachment. At the center of it all is Jordan Bennett, a paranoid truth-seeker who’s long lost touch with the world around him—until a bizarre solar eclipse throws him into a chain of apocalyptic events.
The world literally falls into darkness after a mysterious object appears in space. With the light gone, so too vanish order, time, and certainty. Nature begins to twist—plants mutate, animals grow violent, governments collapse. Jordan is haunted by visions, memories, and strange encounters that blur the line between reality and madness.
Joined by scientist Sierra Foster and his old friend Riley Parker, Jordan embarks on a mysterious research expedition aboard the ship Polaris. But the ship isn’t just transportation—it’s a passage into something else entirely: a realm of shifting timelines, eerie spaces, and biological nightmares.
With each chapter, the reader falls deeper into a world where the undead aren’t just zombies—they’re metaphors for mind control, digital addiction, and social decay. This book weaves together cryptozoology, alien mythology, psychological disorders, and philosophical critique into something that’s more than just horror—it’s a slow-burn descent into existential dread.
Apocalyptical Horror isn’t your typical story with a clear beginning and end. It’s a journey through the unknown, blending mystery, science fiction, and sharp social commentary. Every character, every detail, every setting is part of a bigger, unsettling puzzle. The real horror isn’t in blood and gore, but in the creeping realization that we might never have been alone—and never truly free.
