Fabulous Bodies by Chuck Tingle Review: Grave Robbing in Glitter

Fabulous Bodies, Chuck Tingle’s latest horror novel published by Titan Books in August 2026, follows Poppy Stringer, a Palm Springs influencer and grave robber who accepts a five-million-dollar job to steal the corpse of her rock star hero, Eddie Michaels. When Eddie awakens, he commandeers their vehicle for a violent night across Palm Springs. The reviewer praises Tingle’s characterization and prose style, describing the work as fast-paced, gory and emotionally resonant, with a message about love. However, the review identifies a significant flaw: the implausible body count and killing spree lack police response, and numerous unnamed victims treated as props undermine the book’s stated theme of honouring the dead. The novel receives four out of five stars, recommended for readers seeking supernatural splatter with emotional depth, but cautioned for those requiring logical consistency.
