HORROR AUTHOR | ILLUSTRATOR
“Cat Scully’s invited us all to a party you won’t want to miss. Below the Grand Hotel is a bloody labyrinth filled with demons and desperation, sorrow and sacrifice. The real horror in these pages is how often we have to choose between suffering for our own sake, and suffering for the sake of others. Follow the author down into a glamorous hell, where damnation comes in every delicious flavor!”
—Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Birds and The House of Last Resort
"Cat Scully has created an art deco inferno. Below the Grand Hotel is a gorgeous, sumptuous perdition gilded in blood and excess that would make F. Scott Fitzgerald sell his soul to spend just a night in one of its accursed chambers."
-- Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
"A starry-eyed nightmare, delicious and dark. Cat Scully's Below the Grand Hotel gives us gilded-aged horror at its finest. Do check in, darling. You may not want to leave."
-- Robert P. Ottone, Author of The Vile Thing We Created and the Bram Stoker award-winning novel The Triangle
