Reviews for Gulf
“Shelly Campbell’s Gulf is an extraordinary read. Equal parts coming of age story and otherworldly horror, Gulf probes the depths of loneliness, loss of identity and childhood trauma. It is a true treat for fans of the genre and had me clutched in its razor-clawed hands from the first word to the last.” -C.M. Forest author of Infested
“GULF is a heartbreaking and frightening exploration of isolation, loneliness, and timeless childhood horror. Campbell plays on our fears of being abandoned or forgotten by those around us, crafting a literal depiction of a young man slowly cut off from the world he knows, and subsumed into a horrific existence that his own family cannot understand or perceive.” -Sunyi Dean (she/her) author of The Book Eaters
“Gulf reads like a fever dream, where the pull of the darkness is all consuming and screaming into the void is only the beginning. Deeply disturbing and unsettling, be careful not to lose yourself in the Gulf.” -Candace Nola, author of Hank Flynn and Bishop.
“They only come out at night… Part horror, part dark fantasy, Campbell draws the reader in with an immensely likeable main character, pitting a normal teenage boy against the forces of darkness. The story will grip you from the very start and keep you turning pages to the end..” – Holley Cornetto, author of We Haunt These Woods
“Campbell’ work exudes atmosphere, mixing themes like family and identity in a dark, tense, and stunningly unique manner. Gulf is bleak and eerie, but brimming with heart.” – Brennan LaFaro, author of a Noose and Slattery Falls
“Portal fiction works best when this world and that world are living, breathing entities that co-exist deep within the readers nightmares. ‘Gulf’ by Campbell has remained steadfastly taking up space within my head ever since I first read it. Outstanding.” – Steve Stred, Splatterpunk-Nominated author of ‘Mastodon’
