BCWS Banner.png

Blurb:

Five friends. Five haunted carnival attractions. One spicy, spooky night.

“Let’s split up and look for clues!”

When Brad convinced his friends to dress up as the Scooby gang for Halloween, it was mostly to combine his two favorite crushes: Daphne and his friend Kylie.

He didn’t expect things to get weird. Really weird.

A demonic teddy bear. An animatronic clown. A sentient rollercoaster. A ghost trapped in the Tunnel of Love. A… popcorn monster?

HAUNTED CARNIVAL HIJINKS: A SPOOKY, SPICY HALLOWEEN is a spicy horror novelette (15k words, 70 pages) for adventurous readers who want a little (okay a lot of) heat with their goosebumps. Cozy, nostalgic vibes meet wacky, weird spice to create one unforgettable night. It’ll leave you saying “What did I just read?” and “Why was it so… hot?” Turn the page, brave reader—if you dare.

Who’s Adeline Alchemy?

In case you missed it, Adeline is my (Bethany Baker’s) new pen name for Spicy-Cozy Horror! The Ms. Hyde to my Dr. Jekyl, if you will.

Sometimes I have (unhinged) ideas that don’t fit into a monster romance story.

Things like haunted sentient objects, transforming trinkets, and stalker succubi…

“Cozy” means these stories aren’t particularly scary. You’ll get vibes reminiscent of Goosebumps, What We Do in the Shadows, or the Addams Family. While our characters might be bewildered or embarrassed, they’re always having a good time.

“Spicy” means these stories are still very adult. 😏 Our characters are getting off, one way or another.

“Horror” means things get weird. Squishier. Stranger. Stickier. You might bump into some icks or skin-crawling premises—in a fun way, of course.

ARCs coming soon

Y’all, this one is so unhinged and so fun! It’ll be out Oct 1st on Kindle/KU and Paperback*. (*Paperback release may be delayed depending on processing times.)

If you want to snag an ARC (Advance Review Copy) you can apply to the Adeline Alchemy review team here! The only requirement is that you make a free BookSprout account and are able to post a review to Amazon or Goodreads, though the review itself is totally voluntary. (ARC FAQs here)
