Description
From the mad mind of acclaimed chef Zach Neil comes this killer plant-based cookbook inspired by your favorite horror movies and TV shows. The follow-up to his best-selling cookbook, Nightmare Before Dinner, the Death for Dinner Cookbook delivers gruesome goodness in 60 stick-to-your guts comfort-food recipes, from startling starters and monstrous mains to depraved desserts and cursed cocktails, including:
- Crystal Lake BBQ Sliders, inspired by Friday the 13th – The only thing better than warm sunshine, campfires, and working up an appetite after escaping the clutches of Jason Vorhees are these pulled mushroom sliders.
- Children of the Hominy, inspired by Children of the Corn – An ancient recipe from Gatlin, Nebraska, this pozole will make anyone rise up from the stalks.
- The Hills Have Fries, inspired by The Hills Have Eyes – This hill of hand-cut french fries smothered in a béchamel and chili sauce and topped with fresh scallions, red onion, fakon, and cilantro and lime sour cream will have everyone watching you.
- Blood Orange Cheesecake Trifle, inspired by Dexter – Complete with blood orange, vegan cream cheese, and hints of lemon, this dessert is the right amount of sweet and airy—no gloves or plastic wrap are required to make.
- Never Sleep Again, inspired by Nightmare on Elm Street – Stay awake (and alive!) with this alternative take on an old-fashioned cocktail made with a shot of espresso.
Though the recipes may look terrifying, they are easy to make and will impress even the most stubborn carnivores. So, get ready to throw the ultimate Halloween party or some epic movie nights. Let’s just hope Freddy, Michael, and Jason stay on the screen and off the guest list. [cue the beet-juice splatter]

This cookbook is phenomenal. If you love all things horror films this is the cookbook for you! I am a terrible cook, always getting stuck on cooking the same 8 items on repeat and needed something new and exciting. This Cookbook has tons of Plant based drinks, meals and appetizers to make any meal or get together to die for. I love that to the book has a list for Kitchen Must Haves, Setting the Scene and a list of movies/shows that inspired the foods.
Some of my favorite recipes are:
-All Hallows Eve Lasagna
-Freds Burger
-Charcoal Arugula Salad
These recipes will add the perfect amount of spooky to any meal/event.

This book has a combination of things I enjoy, horror movies and puns!
There is a fantastic array of recipes to discover such as “The Hills Have Fries”, “Evil Bread” and “Drag Me to Bell” just to name a few pun related ones.
As well as including the “deadly ingredients” for each item it also includes a prep and cooking time guide.
The book features great recipe photos as well as film snaps, it’s clear that the author has put a lot of thought into the book.
It is plant based recipes but it could easily be substituted where necessary.
A great book for any horror fan or if you fancy trying out some creepy cooking!
