Joshua Ulrich Sells Graphic Novel, Terrifying Tales Of Vivian Vance
The Terrifying Tales of Vivian Vance: The Horror At Pensmouth is a YA graphic novel by Joshua Ulrich, described as Chilling Adventures of Sabrina meets Veronica Mars by way of HP Lovecraft. While on a case for a classmate, teen detective Vivian Vance stumbles on a dark secret about her town's history and finds herself face-to-face with horrifying monsters—so she must team up with her new (and only) friends to defeat the monsters and keep the townspeople safe.
Ruta Rimas at Razorbill has bought The Terrifying Tales of Vivian Vance, to be published in the summer of 2023. Joshua Ulrich's agent, Jennifer Azantian at Azantian Literary, handled the deal for world rights.
Joshua Ulrich is the creator of the Webtoon series Newman, a descendant of the first comics he ever created 15 years ago, and the WebToon series Jackie Rose.
