Night of the Chupacabra by Michael Hebler

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

Night-of-the-Chupacabra-coverPost Civil War. Families move west to begin rich new lives, only some never make it. There is a creature that lurks in the vast open deserts of the west. It can only survive on blood and, although it prefers to prey on the weak and young, it will slaughter anyone or anything, once provoked. It is unnatural, deceptive, and difficult to kill. Word about the existence of this elusive beast has not spread since anyone who has crossed paths with it did not live long enough to tell of their account.

Night of the Chupacabra is one man’s journey to reunite with his missing family, while the lethal creature that separated them, the mysterious and ravenous chupacabra, is never far behind. Night of the Chupacabra is not only a gruesome regale of carnage, but a unique combination of science fiction bloodshed with a more poignant tale of lost love set against a Western backdrop. Night of the Chupacabra is an unflinching look at the impossible choices made for family, while knowing the consequences will ultimately lead to a fate worse than death.

What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
Make sure you learn just as much about publicity and marketing as you learn about the craft of writing because whether you’re traditionally published or self-published – if you’re not Stephen King or J.K. Rowling – you’re the one responsible for getting word out there about yourself and your book.

Author Bio:
I am native Southern Californian where I still reside. I have a degree in Theatre Arts and in addition to writing books, I have a career as a publicist in feature films.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
It was a combination of events. I was a theatre geek in college during the early ’90’s. A friend of mine wrote and directed a one-act play about a group of people who trapped themselves inside a saloon while monsters – I think they were vampires – were trying to get inside. That was when I fell in love with western-horror and decided to write a screenplay on fusing those two genres. Sort of simultaneously, a roommate of mine had posted an article on the refrigerator of an Orange County man blaming the death of his baby on a chupacabra. This was the first I ever heard of the creature and the article made my roommate laugh and it hung on the fridge forever. So every time I was hungry or thirsty, I was reminded of the chupacabra. By this time, I had already begun my western-horror screenplay, then called Dark Sunrise, and created a creature from my imagination. Then one night, I was watching an episode of X-Files about the chupacabra, which blew my mind because of the article. And a lot of the traits and characteristics mentioned in the episode were what I had already created for the monster in my story, so midway through writing Dark Sunrise, I changed my creature to the chupacabra. Then over the years, the screenplay became adapted into the novel published today, as well as a series of stories that will follow..
