Critics Review

“John Harrison has orchestrated such a diabolical encanto with Did You Get The Package?, which will be gasped at alongside such cerebral creepfests as Marcus Kliewer’s The Caretaker and Adam Nevill’s Last Days.”Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Devil Inside
“Some packages are better left unopened … but you’ll be glad you opened this one. A master storyteller in every medium, John Harrison delivers vivid prose, richly human characters, and a slow-burning sense of dread that gets under your skin while asking unsettling questions about art, love, addiction, and the wounds we never truly leave behind.”Tina Romero, writer/director of Queens of the Dead
“Harrison’s fiction lingers long after you turn the final page. He’s a born storyteller.”Clive Barker, New York Times best-selling author
“In Did You Get the Package?,” Harrison’s deliberate prose is a textbook in slowly unraveling the psyche of the characters; purposeful, frustrating, while leaving the reader feeling like they only have one foot on the ground, and grappling with the architectural possibilities of a simple box … us.”Del Howison, two-time Bram Stoker Award winner, and author of The Survival of Margaret Thomas and What Fresh Hell Is This?
Did You Get the Package?” is a current, compulsive psychological horror about the sometimes dangerously transformative power of art. Fans of Mark Z. Danielewski and Catriona Ward will feast on this one.”Meredith Borders, senior editor of FANGORIA magazine & author of First in Fright: The FANGORIA Compendium
“Anyone who knows horror will already know that John Harrison spins cinema-cally vivid scary tales like no one else. But did you know that he can make the psychological landscape of a young couple’s tormented relationship as riveting and frightening as the sinister house that surrounds them? Well, once you get this package, you will never forget it.”Adam Lowenstein, director at The Horror Studies Center of the University of Pittsburgh
