In the backdrop of the early-2000s small-town skate scene, a group of skaters is about to face off against evil cultists.


As kids growing up in the suburbs, Ethan, Dylan, and Billy bonded over their mutual love for skating. When they reunite in their hometown during college summer break, it seems like nothing's changed.


Same boring town.


Until they discover a skater's dream: an abandoned building with a pool all to themselves.


But when they attempt to drain the pool, they accidentally send out a call The Daughters of Eve, a murderous cult intent on unleashing an ancient evil lurking under that very same building, setting off a chain of violence, magic, and nightmarish creatures made of gears, wires, and mangled flesh.

Industry Reviews

"Church of Skatan is every bit the fun, counter-culture, kick-flip-a-demon-in-the-face sort of a story that you'd expect from the cover. But the real magic of Skatan comes from the Daughters of Eve, and Casey's creation of an enigmatic cult leader whose disciples will hunt you down and stick with you long after the back cover closes."

-William Sterling, author of Dead Men's Chests


"Satirical, clever and one hell of a wild ride. Damien Casey's Church of Skatan captivates with twists and turns that will have you asking how everything got so gnarly so quickly. He crafts a crew of characters that jump off the page threatening to drag you into this battle of cults."

-Alyson Hasson, author of Island of the Unclaimed


"Casey's style is beyond labels, and in Church of Skatan, he reaches new heights. A love letter to skating, a scathing critique of Evangelical Christianity, and a manic, blood-soaked story of trying to find acceptance."

-Elford Alley, author of High Strangeness


"Like Danzig jamming with the B52's to create a soundtrack for the best grindhouse movie of all time.

"Like your last ever summer vacation with childhood friends before you drift apart.

"Like totally radical, dude.

"Make no mistake this is Casey's strongest work to date."

-Adam Hulse, author of Below Economic Threshold
