Galloway's Gospel: A Horror Novel of a High School Cult That Spirals Across a Decade Into Something Terrible
First published 2026
“Alternately whimsical and horrifying, Rebelein’s newest is a bizarre gem. I don’t want to join any cult he dreams up, but I will be first in line to read about them.” —KIERSTEN WHITE, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hide In this shockingly fun wild ride of horrors, Sam Rebelein takes readers back to Renfield County and tells the story of two Rachels—one who mistakenly starts a cult at her local high school and one who tries to dismantle it ten years later. 2009: Rachel Galloway is bored in class. She spends the dreary fall days sketching in her notebook—adorable pigs munching on her boring teachers—and imagining a utopia where all the horrors of Burnskidde High School disappear. But when her classmates start to believe this utopia could be real, Galloway finds herself at the center of an elaborate, and quickly spreading, new religion. Before long, the town is split between believers and nonbelievers. As tensions rise and the rituals become more dangerous, Galloway can’t be sure what’s real and what’s not, or who she can trust. 2019: This is the cryptic message that Renfield County Guard Rachel Durwood receives from her colleague Mark, mere days after he’s disappeared.
