Editorial Reviews

Review

"Never Leaving evokes VHS classics like The Amityville Horror, House by the Cemetery, and The Boogens-all with Alley's easygoing humor and wicked penchant for driving likeable characters up a tree only to chop it down." Coy Hall (Colossus with a Poison Tongue, The Switchblade Svengali)

"Elford Alley must be a chemist. He manages to construct horror comedy, with the perfect amount of scares and laughs, to create medicine for the soul. Never Leaving presents itself as a working-class take on the haunted house trope, before Alley gives the test tube a shake and you find yourself immersed in something else entirely. This is as much a story of struggles and love, as it is of hauntings and whispers in the dark."

Adam Hulse (The Forgotten War, Below Economic Thresholds)

    great author
  • Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2025
    Never before have I read a book that made my heart race at the especially tense scenes & then in the next moment had me chuckling out loud at some of the humorous dialogue. What an excellent read! I highly recommend if you're looking for some laughs to go along with some really well-written horror.

    Alley has another hit on his hands, filled with horror and humor in his signature style. Grappling with the difficulty of homeownership in late-stage capitalism, the misallocation of tax dollars in small towns, and what it means to take a stand, to stake your claim in a callous world.

    A thrill from start to finish, author Elford Alley shows his strongest prose yet and weaves a tale that is sure to crawl into your bones and, well, never leaving.

    Definitely my new favorite of Alley’s works. A great blend of haunted house, monsters, and humor. The only downside is that it’s over so quickly, leaving you wanting more.

    Never Leaving evokes VHS classics like The Amityville Horror, House by the Cemetery, and The Boogens—all with Alley’s easygoing humor and wicked penchant for driving likeable characters up a tree only to chop it down.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 8, 2025
    Elford just gets it right. Pacing, story, characters. A little sprinkle of comedy in there. Tension. A little creepy. Some gore. Look, it's a little pot of horror that is stirred up nicely.
    I really enjoy Elford's work. You should check him out.
    You can blast through this one in a couple of hours.
