8114 is a terrifying horror novel investigating the mysterious death of a high school friend through an embattled podcast and hallucinatory hauntings at the abandoned house of his childhood.

After returning to his hometown, Paul, the beleaguered host of a small-time podcast, discovers a longtime friend committed suicide in the dilapidated ruins of Paul's childhood home. Desperate to find answers, Paul interviews friends and locals hoping to find closure. He finds himself in a chilling downward spiral of his memories and the land he grew up on. Has his past caught up with him or is there something far more sinister at play?

Joshua Hull, screenwriter of Glorious, brings an edge of horror film expertise to this story of small-town haunting, trauma, and grief that just won't let go. 8114 roots out the rot of a small town's past and unravels the memories we must face to survive the present.

Book peeps…this was one hell of a creepy read!! 🙌 While it was creepy as hell, it felt like it took ideas from different horror movies, rather than being more original. It even read more like a movie than a book to me! 👀 I feel like the characters needed more depth and that MMC - man, he was utterly unlikeable! I’m left with so many questions still, I’m scratching my head…🤔 But the creep factor was on point! For that alone, I’d recommend checking this one out! 👏 Thank you to NetGalley and Clash Books for the opportunity to read the eARC in exchange for my honest review! ❤️ TW: infant/child death, suicide
