The Horror Writers Association (HWA) has announced the recipients of the 2025 Bram Stoker Awards for Superior Achievement. Named in honor of Bram Stoker (Dracula) and awarded annually since 1988, the awards “are given ‘for superior achievement,’ not for ‘best of the year,’ and the rules are deliberately designed to make ties possible.”

Here are some highlights from this year’s winners:

Stephen Graham Jones, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter

SUPERIOR ACHIEVEMENT IN LONG FICTION

(tie) Nathan Ballingrud, Cathedral of the Drowned / A.C. Wise, “Wolf Moon, Antler Moon”
