Dark Horse’s ‘Shock Shop’ is a Horror Anthology Flip Comic set in a Haunted Comic Book Shop

Dark Horse Comics have announced details of SHOCK SHOP, a brand new horror anthology flip comic from Cullen Bunn (Harrow County), Danny Luckert (Regression), and Leila Leiz (The Last Book You’ll Ever Read.)

The horror takes place in a haunted comic book shop, and readers will be treated to two scary stories told across four issues.

Each issue will feature variant covers by a host of horrifyingly talented artists, including Francesco Francavilla, Fábio Moon, Caitlin Yarsky, James Stokoe, James Harren, and Tonci Zonjic.

Here’s a breakdown of each story:

In FAMILIARS: After a painful divorce and custody battle, Trevor rents a house and tries to rebuild his life. Soon, he discovers that his house appears to be “haunted” by more than one spirit: the minions of a long-dead coven of witches. When the creatures begin feeding on Trevor’s feelings of anger and guilt, they lash out at those who draw his ire, whether he wants them to or not.

In SOMETHING IN THE WOODS, IN THE DARK: A husband and wife who are going through a tough time go on a camping trip with a few friends into the deep woods. As they trek further into the forest, they realize that they are being stalked. Something in the woods starts killing the campers–a hideous, inhuman thing that may have more ties to the campers than any of them realize.

SHOCK SHOP #1 hits comic book store shelves and digital platforms on the 7th of September 2022, and is available for pre-order now.
