Delirium Books, launched in the summer of 1999 by Shane Ryan Staley, was a horror publisher in the collector's market, producing low print-run limited editions intended for collectors and readers alike.[1] Limited-edition books published by Delirium were reputed to sell out quickly, making their publications highly collectable.[2][3] Delirium Books published The Rising, the first book in a series of zombie-themed horror novels written by Brian Keene, which won the Bram Stoker Award for Best First Novel in 2003.[4]
In 2005, Delirium Books won the Bram Stoker Award for Excellence in Specialty Press Publishing, presented by the Horror Writers Association (HWA).[5][6] The same year, Delirium took home the first annual Shocker Award for Small Press of the Year, presented by Shocklines.com.[7][8]
Per Staley, Delirium Books ceased activities in January 2013.[9]
