Burn The Negative

<p>Fresh off the plane in L.A. here to visit the set of a new streaming horror series journalist Laura Warren sees a man jumping from a bridge landing right behind her car. It’s started she thinks. Because the series she’s reporting on is a remake of a ’90s horror flick. A cursed ’90s horror flick which she starred in as a child—and has been running from her whole life.<br><br>When Laura was eight years old eight members of the cast and crew died in ways that eerily mirrored the movie’s on-screen deaths making the film a cult classic—and ruining her life. She changed her name and her accent dyed her hair and moved across the Atlantic. But some scripts don’t want to stay buried.<br><br>Now as the body count rises again Laura finds herself on the run with her aspiring actress sister and a jaded psychic hoping to end the curse once and for all.</p> Burn the Negative is a creepy twisty compulsively readable haunted house of a book built from horror movies and our obsessive response to them. You'll root for Laura and fear the Needle Man. Be sure to make the popcorn and dim the lights <b>Josh Winning</b> is the author of the critically acclaimed The Shadow Glass.
