COVEN OF THE WORM MOON with JC Vande Zande

from Quills and Chills · host Rick Clifton

In this episode of Quills & Chills, I welcome back author JC Vande Zande to talk about Coven of the Worm Moon, the third and concluding book in his Fletcher Family supernatural horror trilogy.We explore how the series uses horror to examine grief, addiction, family, and generational trauma, and why this final installment shifts perspective to Carson, who lives with the constant voices of the dead. JC shares how the trilogy’s mythology evolved as he wrote, the growth of Emily’s nature-linked powers, and the complicated connection between Carson’s drinking and his supernatural gift.We also talk about the book’s memorable Mackinac Bridge sequence, the meaning behind the “Worm Moon,” finding readers through BookSky on Bluesky, and whether Coven of the Worm Moon really marks the end of the Fletcher Family story.You can find the book on Amazon & Kindle.Follow JC Vande Zande online:Bsky: @jeffvandezande.bsky.socialFollow Quills & Chills:Instagram: @quillsandchillsBluesky: @quillsandchills.bsky.social
