Clive Barker Offers Updates on Several ProjectsClive Barker recently turned to his official Facebook page to update plans on several projects he has in the works including Harry D’Amour/Hellraiser project The Scarlet Gospels and more. Read on for details.

“A lot of you ask about the status of The Scarlet Gospels. Firstly, thank you for caring. Several portions of the book are written and the scale of the narrative is massive. This is without doubt the most metaphysically ambitious book of mine since Imajica. But unlike Imajica, which offered an entirely new cast of characters, The Scarlet Gospels builds its narrative around Harry D’Amour and the Hellraiser mythology. Unlike Mister King, who has found brilliant ways to connect his different worlds so that we come to understand that each is an echo or reflection of the rest, I have no such grand ambition in mind. I simply want to tell an apocalyptic tale in which Harry will meet the forces of Hell as they appear in The Hellbound Heart and the first Hellraiser movie.”

“Since I became so unwell earlier this year I am trying to be a little kinder to myself. That means that I can’t tell you exactly when the book will be finished, only that it will be. My love and heartfelt thanks for all the concern you’ve shown for my well being. Over and over again I’ve been gently advised to get well first, then worry about which story will be told when I’ve finished the fifth and final Abarat book. I hope this was useful. Now I head back [to] Abarat, where Christmas Day has just dawned.”

Look for more on Barker soon, and if you head on over to his Facebook page (link below), make sure you tell him to get well soon!
