“A slow-burning horror story that unfolds through your mail one letter at a time. At first, you’ll find yourself running to the mailbox; later, you’ll be running from it. I absolutely loved this!”

J.D. Barker
New York Times Bestselling author of The First Scarlet Door

How It Works

Perfect for that horror-lover or hard-to-buy-for friend, the ScareMail Gift Box allows the receiver to start the subscription immediately using a redemption code inside.

When the receiver is ready, they just need to enter the code at checkout, and their Scaremail will be free, and we'll send the second letter on the next shipment date.

Instead of spam or bills, readers will receive two letters a month for an entire year, mailed on the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month. Each letter is meticulously written, crafted, and thoughtfully designed by Horror Author David Viergutz.

The story includes eerie extras like unsettling photographs, ominous newspaper clippings, and cryptic symbols that turn a simple letter into an enhanced, storytelling experience. Scaremail is doing away with bad news, bills, and junk mail. Now, you get to enjoy a haunted story a different way.
