@EldritchKing_
The doors are open.
The Eldritch King Founder’s Subscription is now available.
As a Founder, you will receive:
— Your book signed, at no additional price.
— Access to early art and content.
— The quiet satisfaction of having arrived before the crowd.
That last privilege is yours to handle with whatever degree of grace you can manage.
This is my invitation to join us from the very beginning.
Once the first 1,500 places are taken, the founding circle closes.

@MrARMBARS @EldritchKing_ Not until after the book has arrived at your door, but after that, the number will stay the same throughout your subscription

[Eldritch King Books @EldritchKingSub]

@007king700 @EldritchKing_ They are chosen at random at the start but you will keep the same number throughout your entire subscription

@EldritchKing_

You have shocked me.

Never have I seen such feverish, depraved hunger.
The Founders Pact sold out. To be expected of course. But so swiftly? In less than *two minutes*?
You have astonished me, my gloriously mad subjects, and you have my gratitude.
So much haste, even Shopify couldn’t keep up. Your crazed assault on our website was so fierce, our capped numbers couldn’t close the pact quick enough. Animals indeed.
Some of you slipped through my net.
But, worry not. There will be no cancellations here. Certainly not on my watch. As of today, the Founders Pact is now capped at 2,000 subscribers. Unexpected, to be sure, and not what I had planned. I offer apologies.
The Blood and Soul Pacts will be opened next week. Try to be more civilised next time.
Until then, thank you for answering My call into the darkness. — The Eldritch King

@EldritchKing_

You have been so patient. I’m impressed.

Or perhaps you’ve just been distracted with the new titles.

Whichever it is, the result is the same: less whining about wanting to know more.

Your wait is almost over. Behold, the Leather-bound Edition of World War Z.

Subscriptions for our Founder’s Pact open tomorrow, 10th November, at 8pm GMT.

£40 plus postage.
Worldwide shipping.

Some of you may want to know what happens if you miss out on the Founder's Subscription.

Worry not, slots for my Blood (cloth-bound) and Soul (wintan leather-bound) Pacts will open up soon after.

How many?

Another 1,500, total. And if you miss out on that?
There will be a waitlist. More slots will open in time, I plan to slowly increase the number of subscribers.

Visit https://t.co/HyMGTaIMnN for more information, art, and to sign up to my newsletter.

Don’t miss out – you wouldn’t want to disappoint me. #horrorart #booksubscriptionbox #horrorcomunity #eldritchking

@JustThis44 We're currently working on IOSS shipping in Europe but there will be customs and handling fees that customers will need to pay.

[Eldritch King Books @EldritchKingSub]

Offer me your ear, I have something dark to whisper.

Here are the details of my special edition horror subscription tiers.

BLOOD PACT

- Clothbound hard covers with fiendishly designed foil stamping
- Paper so good that it’s used by Curious King releases (if you don’t know, you should)
- Top quality dustjacket materials and cover treatments
- Redesigned interior layouts to the level they should be for these works
- Full colour illustrated endpapers by true artists worthy of the title
- Precision-printed edges with surprising, creative design
- £30 plus shipping for each release (every other month)

SOUL PACT

- Everything that’s in the Blood Pact as above
- Wintan Recycled genuine leather covers, versions with the same designs of the Blood Pact
- £40 plus shipping for each release (every other month)
- But there’s more . . .

FOUNDERS PACT

The first 1,500 subscribers may sign the Founder’s Pact: our leatherbound Soul Pact editions with signatures bound into the book—no bookplates (I may be evil but I’m not that evil).

Signed by the author, or a contributor if the author has already passed to my dark realm. £40 per book, plus shipping. That’s right–the same price as the Soul Pact.

Act quickly. This tier will never increase in number. Ever.

I do appreciate punctuality. Occasionally, I even reward it.

[Eldritch King Books @EldritchKingSub]

@Hughes1988M I will reveal titles very...very soon. You will know the titles before the subscriptions are open.

[Eldritch King Books @EldritchKingSub]

@binding_broken Ah, a hoard worthy of a fellow sovereign. Such beauty bound in paper and ink

[Eldritch King Books @EldritchKingSub]

A book bearing my name must earn the privilege.

The paper. The binding. The artwork. Even the smallest detail will have my attention.

Fortunately, I have chosen my servants well. Anthony Kaye, founder of Curious King, oversees every edition. His books have been shortlisted in four categories at the British Book Design & Production Awards.

An encouraging start.

World-renowned artists are creating exclusive artwork for my editions. Gomer Press, one of Britain’s finest book printers and binders, has been entrusted with their making.

Expect carefully chosen papers. Smyth-sewn bindings. Intricate foil detailing or screen printing. Ribbon markers to keep your place when your courage fails.

Exceptional horror and dark fiction, made into objects of devotion.

You’ve seen what my servants can do. Wait until you see what they have done for me.

The first title will be revealed on 7 November. Sign up for my newsletter.

@CharmaineL45601 I do appreciate that you've seen the vision... and I think you'll love the books we've chosen

[Eldritch King Books @EldritchKingSub]

People whisper, “My Lord, why a subscription?”
It’s simple.
I want you to open your delivery, examine the book, remember what you paid for it, and wonder how on earth we managed it.
Here is how it works. Planning our print runs around our subscriber numbers gives us the certainty to invest in each edition while keeping costs under control.
We’re choosing to keep our margins modest, too. That means we can put more into the books while keeping the price low. And I have quite specific ideas about what belongs in those books.
Extraordinary artwork. Beautiful printing on carefully chosen paper. Smyth-sewn bindings made to endure. Thoughtful design that makes every page a pleasure to read.
The effort goes into the book itself--no . . . gimmicks. Something to collect, certainly. But also to open, enjoy and return to for years.
The editions we’re preparing, at the prices we’ll be offering, are only possible because of the subscription.
Special-edition horror and dark fiction, delivered every two months.
Subscriptions open Tuesday 10.
Join My newsletter at https://t.co/qzGhxOQdOG to find out exactly when.
I look forward to showing you just how much is possible. #eldtritchking #bookstagram #horrorart #horrorcommunity #horror

So you found us.

Whether through exceptional taste or a regrettable accident, you now stand before Eldritch King—a new publisher of special-edition horror, from the creators of Curious King.

For those who prefer their books beautiful and their peace of mind temporary.

Our subscription will bring you a carefully chosen horror novel every other month, in an edition worthy of your shelves. And, more importantly, worthy of my name. An ongoing arrangement, then. One encounter with me would hardly be sufficient.

But pay attention. I will not repeat myself simply because you were elsewhere.

Follow along. There will be revelations.
