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.

Reviews for 8114

""Reading Joshua Hull's grief-rot-opera 8114 is akin to uncovering that lost VHS tape at the far back of the Blockbuster video, all scuzzed up with nowhere to go but straight into the cassette player of your brain. This is opaque horror, this black mold horror, this is the hole at the center of Hull's own heart and it's swallowed me up."" —Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes “8114 is a speeding car with no brakes on a road going straight into Hell. A brutal tale of how narcissism and ego in today’s technology-driven world can conjure the very worst kinds of evil, then give it a microphone.” —Philip Fracassi, author of Boys in the Valley ""Dripping with guilt and grief, heartbreak and hope, Joshua Hull has achieved something special here, a blend of the haunted self and the haunted house narrative. 8114 leaves a mark, a scar that will leave readers lost in thought, reflecting on the authenticity of their own memories."" —Michael J. Seidlinger, author of Anybody Home? and The Body Harvest “Surprising and relentless, Joshua Hull’s 8114 is an absolute banger of a novel. Few writers can induce nervous laughter while scaring the pants off readers, but Hull absolutely excels at it. 8114 is a macabre blast of cinematic horror!” —Jonathan Janz, author of Veil and Marla
