“This summer, don’t waste your downtime doing nothing,” says Nicholas. “Relax, escape, and dive headfirst into a world that’s far scarier and far more thrilling than your own.”

From disturbing psychological games to eerie supernatural elements, Nicholas crafts worlds where the line between fear and fascination disappears. With each book, readers are transported into dark new realms that challenge the mind and quicken the pulse. Fans are gravitating towards Nicholas’ spine-chilling stories in record numbers. As horror popularity continues to climb, he is this summer’s must-read horror author.

As the horror genre continues, building on the momentum of record-breaking sales in previous years, Nicholas is emerging as the latest standout voice in thrills and chills. According to The Guardian, horror fiction sales jumped 54% between 2022 and 2023, and that growth surged another 34% in early 2024. In 2025, the trend shows no sign of slowing, as readers continue to turn to horror to process real-world anxieties surrounding powerlessness, politics, and global unrest.

“My goal is to keep horror modern and relevant by exploring today’s fears and anxieties, but I also draw inspiration from the raw suspense and energy of ’80s slasher films. With books like Shade, Nightmare, and Animal, I blend psychological twists with that classic chilling vibe to create stories that both thrill and resonate deeply with readers,” explains Nicholas.

One reader raved, “I don’t like slasher books or movies, but The Animal is a different breed. Its twists and turns are so breathtaking and the characters so real that I could not put the story down.”

This summer, readers are craving more than the usual horror fare; they want stories that challenge, thrill, and resonate on a deeper level. His novels offer fresh and unforgettable experiences that will keep fans turning pages long into the night.
