Critics Review
“Séance in the Asylum is thrilling, intriguing and scary. It’s got its own unique identity which is uncommon in today’s age, and is shaping up to be an essential horror comic read for me. Clay McLeod Chapman’s comics debut succeeds with flying colors, and I cannot wait to see what else he does going forward.“—Comics Beat

Praise for Clay McLeod Chapman:
