Titan Books to Publish New Edition of Return of the Living Dead Novelization in 2027

John Russo's Return of the Living Dead: The Official Novelization, a gore-filled meta sequel to Night of the Living Dead, returns on March 30, 2027.

Titan Books is printing a new edition of John Russo's Return of the Living Dead: The Official Novelization, set for release on March 30, 2027. The publisher announced the edition, according to Bloody Disgusting.

The book is described as a gore-filled meta sequel to George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead. The novelization was written by the screenwriter of the legendary film.

Russo and Romero co-wrote Night of the Living Dead. After the 1968 film's success, the pair parted ways, though Russo retained the rights to "Living Dead" titles.

Russo released the novel Return of the Living Dead in 1978 as a direct sequel to the 1968 movie. In 1985, elements of the narrative were adapted into a screenplay.

A sequel to the original movie has been in the works for years and has potentially been teased as getting a release before the end of the year.
