The Black Labyrinth series is a horror imprint that released limited-edition novellas from established genre authors. Joe R. Lansdale contributed The Walls of the Castle (2012), Prisoner 489 (2014), and The Booking (2016), alongside editions of his Drive-In novels.
These shorter works gave Lansdale room to experiment with contained horror stories, each built around claustrophobic or surreal premises. The Black Labyrinth editions are collector’s items in the horror fiction market.
