According to Deadline, it has been confirmed that the next horror novel to be adapted into a TV series is Keith Rosson’s Coffin Moon.

Paramount Television Studios is not new to book TV adaptations. Deadline included that “the spy thriller The Ambler Warning, based on Robert Ludlum’s bestselling novel, which Deadline announced as being in development last October. Biel is set to star and executive produce The Ambler Warning.” Paramount Television Studios has also acquired the rights to books for TV adaptions such as You Can’t Catch Me by Catherine McKenzie, The Library Book by Susan Orlean and Dead Money by Jakob Kerr.

This wasn’t the only announcement for Coffin Moon.

This book has themes of horror, thriller, crime, and vampires. Coffin Moon is a stand alone book set in 1975 in Portland, Oregon following the main character Duane Minor, a Vietnam War veteran who struggles with PTSD.

Coffin Moon has over 15,000 ratings on Goodreads and has received an Audie award nomination this year for Best Horror Novel. Coffin Moon has even impressed and appeared on Stephen King‘s (The Shining, IT) radar.

There has been no official announcement yet to when the Coffin Moon TV series will be in production or when they will start filming. Audiences will just have to wait and see how the book will be directly translated visually onto our screens.
