Black Veil Brides frontman Andy Biersack is diving into the world of horror books with his new publishing imprint, Knives and Pens Publishing. Named after the band’s breakout 2009 single, the imprint will release a series of horror novellas, reimagining classic characters and introducing brand-new stories.
The first book, The First Vampire, arrives in late March and explores the origins of vampirism. Written under his full name, Andrew Dennis Biersack, the novella follows Andrea, the son of Vlad, as he faces dark magic and a powerful curse that changes history forever.
The story description reads as follows: “Wallachia, 15th century: Vlad the Impaler’s battle against the Ottoman Empire gives rise to a horror beyond imagination. The First Vampire reveals the shocking origin of vampirism, born from a blood plague that transforms the battlefield into a breeding ground for the undead. Through the eyes of Vlad’s eldest son, Andrea, the novella explores the clash between dark magic, loyalty, and an ancient curse that will haunt humanity for generations. This chilling reimagining of Dracula’s origins bridges historical fiction with gothic terror, redefining the boundaries of historical horror for a new generation.”
New books will be released every few months, with upcoming titles including BLEEDERS (a fresh spin on Sweeney Todd) and REVENGER (a dark tale of vengeance). Fans can pre-order The First Vampire now and be among the first to experience Biersack’s take on gothic horror.
Stay tuned for more details on his upcoming releases!
