Attention shoppers! The employees of the Freshway grocery store aren’t too happy about having to do an overnight shift, but they’re about to be even unhappier. Their rival store, Devil’s Food, is about to lay siege upon them with extreme prejudice. This is no ordinary grocery chain. Devil’s Food is run by a cult of murderous Satanists committed to killing the competition—literally. Armed with hatchets, knives, maces and motorcycles, they enter the store and start picking off their victims in the most ghastly and depraved ways possible. The Freshway’s only chance of survival is to fight, and this leads to a bloody battle royal of crazed cashiers, knife-wielding demo ladies, brutal butchers, and teenage clerks determined to make their favorite death metal albums come true. The Night Stockers is a gory horror comedy by Splatterpunk Award-Winning authors Kristopher Triana and Ryan Harding, the men who brought you Full Brutal and Genital Grinder. Filled with bone-crushing carnage and the heaviest metal, this one promises customer satisfaction.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Joining Ryan Harding with Kristopher Triana as a writing team is like smacking two pieces of uranium together REAL HARD. The resultant mushroom cloud will produce works such as THE NIGHT STOCKERS, a literary Niagara Falls of irredeemably explicit violence and full-thrust working-class diabolism with a very new twist: a SATANIC GROCERY STORE. It's hard to get more original than this, or more outrageous, or just more WRONG! Here's a line to give you the gist: 'In the land of the pig, the butcher is king.' This is top-of-the-line hardcore horror and a wonderfully nauseating way to start a new year!" -Edward Lee, author of WHITE TRASH GOTHIC and HEADER

------------

From the Prologue to the Epilogue, Kristopher Triana and Ryan Harding's NIGHT STOCKERS is an evil, carnal-and-carnage-laden trip that never lets up. Only Harding and Triana could take your local supermarket and turn it into a slaughterhouse, turning a grocery store into a GORE-cery store--and that's only the venue! -Jeremy Wagner, author of RABID HEART and guitarist of Broken Hope

Good values and life lessons to be learned here. Two thumbs way up. Ignore the intimations of gore and sex, just wholesome family fun here.

Blood, bath, and beyond

The night stockers by Kristopher Triana and Ryan Harding was a wild, sick, blood soaked, splatter punk ride! If you've read the store by Bentley Little and enjoyed it, I recommend this one. It's like the store on speed! Fresh way supermarket has a new rival in town, in fact they are right across the street. Devil's food. A grocery store which is run by satanists. They don't want to beat the competition, they want to kill it...literally. this story is an extreme horror fans playground. I'll just use some descriptive words instead of a synopsis: death metal, mullets, dismemberment, blood orgies, a chainsaw, mutilation, knives, katanas, drawn and quartered, motorcycles, chains, pentagrams, and one ass kicking granny! There were more fatalities than a night of playing mortal kombat with your friends. Also, this story is set in 1992, so anyone nostalgic for the 90's will really enjoy all of the references. I highly recommend to extreme and splatter punk fans! 5 star brutality!

Fresh Food and Fresh Cadavers At Freshway

Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2022

It's Clerks meets Assault On Precinct 13.
It's Intruder meets The Warriors.
It's Dawn of the Dead meets Rosemary's Baby.
It's none of those things because it's altogether too original to be classified that easily.
I'm talking about The Night Stockers by Triana and Harding, a true masterpiece of absurdity and gore.
Freshway is struggling now that Devil's Food has opened up across the road, stealing customers as well as some of the staff. In a desperate, albeit transparently futile, attempt to combat the erosion of the bottom line, Todd demands that most of this Freshway staff work an unexpected overnight shift for deep cleaning and stocking. A miserable night is soon to become altogether worse as the Freshway staff learns that competition between grocery stores can not only be fierce, it can be deadly.
It stands to reason something like that would have to happen when the Devil's Food chain is owned and operated by Satan. Fueled by a desire to live up to the expectation of his dark lord--and his petty impulse to seek vengeance against the Freshway manager who helped drive him to the dark embrace of Devil's Food--Desmond decides he and his staff will be destroying the competition. Of course, even with Satan on his side, Desmond and his crew of miscreants might have a bit more on their plate than he could anticipate.
Equal parts an homage to death metal of the late 80s and early 90s and the early days of splatterpunk horror, the authors create a world that feels entirely real so that they can do the most unreal and unspeakable things to the people populating that world. Drawing from their own experiences working in retail during that period as well as their lasting appreciation for the music that finds itself repeatedly referenced throughout the narrative, Triana and Harding successfully bring the world of Freshway to life--for the express purpose of converting it into a funhouse of death and dismemberment.
Filled to the brim with graphic sex and violence, often in tandem, The Night Stockers becomes a barrage of viscera and perverse humor that remains constant from the first to the final page.

The Night Stockers

I love Splatterpunk when it is done well. “The Night Stockers” was a fantastic blood bath.

“The Night Stockers” is a story about two competing grocery stores. Freshway is doing well until Devil’s Food moves into town and encroaches on their sales. Todd, the manager
of Freshway, decides he wants all employees to work the night shift and clean the store. He wants a complete overhaul so they can launch a grand reopening and boost sales.

Devil’s Food is run by former Freshway assistant manager, Desmond. As we can guess from the name, this store is anything but ordinary. The employees are metal head, orgy loving, devil worshiping freaks who want to take out the competition. Let the blood bath begin....

“The Night Stockers” is an action packed, gore filled thrill ride that will get your blood pumping. The authors infused humor into this intense book, which was refreshing. It definitely has that 90’s nostalgia too. Let me warn you, this book is hardcore Splatterpunk and not for unseasoned horror readers.

Death metal and Satan obsessed Devil's Food is looking to annihilate the competition.

Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2021

Verified Purchase

When this book was announced, I was beyond excited. 2 big names in the extreme horror genre and a story about 2 competitive grocery stores practically going to war with each other. Fresh Way vs Devil's Food. Bound by Satan, Devil's Food aims to not only kill the competition, but to annihilate it in the name of their Dark Lord. What's not to like? This book is full throttle insanity. Death metal blaring atrocity after atrocity. You either fight for your life or you will be killed, simple as that.

With Harding and Triana, you know the gore will be heaped on and the blood will spill. The characters, both good and bad, are slowly whittled down and only the strongest will survive the night.

Working at Walmart myself, it's fun to read all the familiar lingo. You can really tell that these writers have been through the same retail BS that I have and this is their way of exercising those experiences. By far, this is the most fun I've had reading a book in a looong time. And I know it's still early but I think it'll be one of the best books of the year.

Great Fun!!!!!!

Novel functions beautifully as a splatterpunk work, dark comedy, and a nifty 80's/90's throwback. AND if you ever worked in a grocery store,there's even more nuggets for you. Deliciously violent and full of great puns and references. It would have been really easy to screw up a novel that tried to do this much but Harding/Triana pull it off beautifully!!!!!! Well worth the purchase price!!!!!!!

Loved it

This was a extreme horror read. Packed full with a strong violent story, with Satan extremes. This read had it all and more, some parts make you laugh at its humour, but most of all, it is the detailed and outlandish deaths that are non stop throughout this read. It had you fascinated and gripped, and at the same time cringing and some of the disgusting horrors that take place in freshway. An exciting novel that is a definite must for any extreme horror fan.
