In this episode, I sit down once again with author Andrew Adams to dive deep into his chilling new novel, Son of a Serial Killer. We explore the terrifying legacy of fictional killer Brock Blackwood, and his troubled (and possibly hallucinating) son, Glenn Overton—a man slowly unraveling under the weight of routine, trauma, and maybe something supernatural.
Andrew and I discuss everything from inherited guilt and toxic workplace dynamics to how society mythologizes serial killers. We get into the cult-like obsession around violence, the ambiguity of Glenn’s visions, and how horror can blend psychological realism with surreal nightmare logic. Plus, Andrew shares his thoughts on practical effects in slashers, his writing process, and working with indie publishing platforms like Godless.com.
Whether you’re a fan of psychological horror, true crime fiction, or just curious about what it means to powerbomb a genre, this conversation offers a fascinating look at how Andrew Adams is redefining horror fiction from the inside out.
