Horror, Hollywood, and the fight over who gets written out

Misha’s Oscar nomination arrives alongside a demand from studio executives: remove the gay characters from his series finale. His refusal turns a career decision into a threat, while monsters connected to his horror-movie past stalk him and his friends in the hills above Los Angeles. The book brings the pressures of Hollywood storytelling into a horror plot, linking the fate of fictional characters to Misha’s own danger. Its setup also places questions of representation and industry power alongside creature horror, with the screen’s imagined terrors crossing into the characters’ lives.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Horror readers interested in monsters and stalking threats
  • Readers interested in LGBTQ+ representation in entertainment
  • Readers drawn to stories set within Hollywood and television production

Book overview

The instant USA Today bestseller by Chuck Tingle about what it takes to succeed in a world that wants you dead.

Named one of the Best Horror Books of 2024 (Esquire, Parade, and Library Journal) - Winner of the Locus Award for Best Horror Novel - A Lambda Literary Award finalist!

Misha knows that chasing success in Hollywood can be hell.

But finally, after years of trying to make it, his big moment is here: an Oscar nomination. And the executives at the studio for his long-running streaming series know just the thing to kick his career to the next level: kill off the gay characters, "for the algorithm," in the upcoming season finale.

Misha refuses, but he soon realizes that he's just put a target on his back. And what's worse, monsters from his horror movie days are stalking him and his friends through the hills above Los Angeles.

Haunted by his past, Misha must risk his entire future--before the horrors from the silver screen find a way to bury him for good.

"Brilliantly bloody, wildly fun, and extremely scary, Bury Your Gays brings a sledgehammer down on tired tropes and makes a masterpiece of their guts."--Rachel Harrison, national bestselling author of Black Sheep
