The Queer Fear Collective: Brainwyrms by Alison Rumfitt

Are you a fan of queer horror? Get ready to sink your teeth into our new book club!

We’re kicking things off with Brainwyrms - a dark, provocative, and hallucinatory novel from Alison Rumfitt. Shocking, grotesque, and downright filthy, Brainwyrms confronts the creeping reality of political terrorism while exploring the depths of love, pain, and identity. Part body horror, part social satire and entirely unforgettable, it’s the kind of book that will haunt you long after the last page.

A discount code for the book will be sent to you once you have reserved your place!

Dates: Tuesday 23rd September 2025 & Friday 26th September 2025
Time: 7-9pm
Venue: The Bookish Type, 77a Great George Street, LS1 3BR

Tickets are free! You are able to provide a donation alongside buying your ticket but this is entirely optional!
