Exclusive: Bestselling horror novelist Paul Tremblay, whose A Head Full Of Ghosts is set for a film adaptation directed by Scott Cooper, has signed a three-book deal with the William Morrow imprint of HarperCollins.
The publisher has acquired US and Canadian rights to three new books by the writer, the first of which will be The Pallbearer’s Club, set for publication in summer of 2022.
The novel is described as a horror story about a less-than-successful middle-aged man who reflects on his long-ago involvement with a group who served as volunteer mourners at the funerals of people with no friends or family — and the mysterious person he met along the way who changed the course of his life irrevocably.
Also included in the William Morrow deal is a new short story collection and a currently untitled novel.
Tremblay is the author of six previous novels, including the recently-released Survivor Song.
