Spiders on a Ship

When jealousy awakens ancient forces, a dream vacation becomes a floating nightmare.

Christopher Webb, the Amazing Spider-Mage, brings his exotic arachnid performers aboard the 1940s-themed Pacific Dream cruise for what should be a week of elegant entertainment. But beneath his stage confidence lies a secret terror-one that makes his career choice both ironic and perilous.

When Christopher catches the eye of Cleo Laveau, the ship's mysterious psychic medium, their attraction ignites something unexpected. Cleo's theatrical mysticism hides genuine power, and a moment of jealous rage unleashes forces neither of them understands.

Soon, passengers begin dying in impossible ways. The spiders are changing, multiplying, and coordinating with an intelligence that shouldn't exist. As the vintage-styled cruise ship transforms into a silk-wrapped nightmare floating in the vast Pacific, the survivors face a horrifying truth: they're not just fighting individual creatures anymore.

With communications severed and escape routes sealed, Christopher and Cleo must confront what they've awakened before it spreads beyond the ship. But some secrets run deeper than performance, some curses can't be easily broken, and in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, there's nowhere left to hide.


"Perfect for fans of Paul Tremblay and Chuck Wendig, SPIDERS ON A SHIP weaves supernatural horror with cruise ship claustrophobia in a tale that will make you question what lurks beneath the surface of every performer's smile."
