“Night of The Mummers” is the first book in a series of high quality comics that give us a view into the folk horror world of DCI Hedrek Stern as he tackles a startling string of murders that may or may not be supernatural in nature.

The reader is drawn into a macabre story beautifully illustrated by the incredibly talented David Hitchcock, who has previously worked for 2000ad, Heavy Metal Magazine and his own acclaimed titles Spring Heeled Jack and Spirit of The Highway Man.

Writer Laurence Alison is Professor of Forensic Psychology. He has worked for nearly 30 years on offender profiling and criminal investigation, terrorism, and disaster studies, being the key psychological advisor on many of the most notable cases in recent British History. In 2020 he was awarded an MBE for his services to decision making, rapport-based interviewing and child protection. He has worked across Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas.

Be warned: Hedrek is pretty strong stuff and not for the faint of heart or easily offended. Adult content!
