Don't Move is a horror novel written by James S. Murray and Darren Wearmouth. Published in 2020 by Blackstone Publishing, the story follows a widow named Megan Forrester who embarks on a camping trip with members of a local church. After becoming stranded in a West Virginian forest, they find themselves stalked by a giant prehistoric arachnid that hunts by sensing vibrations.[1][2]

Development

Author James S. Murray, known for starring in the American television series Impractical Jokers, wrote the novel while self-isolating at his home in Princeton, New Jersey during the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][4] He co-wrote the book with Darren Wearmouth, who previously collaborated with Murray on the Awakened series.[5]

Reception

A reviewer writing for Publishers Weekly concluded that "Murray and Wearmouth succeed at creating a creepy atmosphere, but the story remains frustratingly muddled. Fans of monster horror can skip this one."[5]
