There is an over-abundance of werewolf tales available in all forms of entertainment so finding a fresh take on this old story is very difficult but this book manages to discover one. The idea here is that a lobo lives within some people (albeit latent) just sitting there waiting for the right set of circumstances and a large amount of provocation.

The story revolves around a everyday guy called Syd, for whom life is downbeat and boring then one día Nora walks into his life who precedes, within a very short el espacio of time, to turn his humdrum life upside down. Nora is no normal woman and the...

His teenage dreams soon comes true when Ms Hayden draws closer to the boy and starts to respond to his fumbling advances but in a truly nasty twist on 'beware what tu wish for' mythos, Ms Hayden soon turns into a monstrosity of a woman who has murderous intent, cunning and evil running deep through her veins.

Horror stories evoke fear; it is the nature of the beast. So rarely do tu find a horror story that causes other emotions to stir. But a good horror writer knows that in order for the fear to really pay off tu have to engage the readers with not just the concept of the story but with the characters that populate the world of the story. So what if a character tu don't care about dies? No matter how visceral o detailed that characters demise, without invested emotions it just doesn't resonate.
Luckily for the reader, with this story, tu will care.
Elliot Tather has a good life. A happy wife,...

This is the first John Everson story I have read and after this I will definitely por lectura more. If this gruesome, bleak and gory little tale is anything like his other works, true horror fans should not be disappointed.

In this novella we met three kids, all on a rapid downward spiral. Unpopular and rejected por others, desperate and pitiful in their actions, wasting their lives with drugs, sex, self-mutilation and suicidal thinking. All class themselves as complete failures until along comes Aaron. An older gentlemen who feasts on the ripe opportunity to lure the three no-hoper's into a horrific...

Let me first say that I do not read Sci-fi very often. I'm más of a horror fan, but this book has enough absolutely terrifying versions of the future o different realities that, to me, it can be classified as horror because there is nothing más frightening than the unknown.
Included:
HOW TO MAKE A HUMAN por Martin Rose: Robots made to re-create humans after Armageddon find the intricacies of the human soul difficult to duplicate.
ANGIE por John F.D Taff: A bittersweet tale of loyalty and amor in the face of a zombie apocalypse backed por the old 'Rolling Stones' song.
ON THE THRESHOLD por William...

It is impossible to categorize this novel. It starts out like a western; a shady saloon, a cynical barman, a dangerous stranger who goes por the name of the borbón Kid. Add to the mix a gangster, two monks, a bounty hunter, a young couple on the scam, an assassin who impersonates Elvis...Oh, and there's a bunch of vampiros too and they're all after a blue jewel that can control the moon.
Sound bizarre? It is. It's also blistering witty, extremely violent, filled with acidic one-liners and lashings of gore. This book (the autor remains nameless) is for anyone who loves a bit of anarchy in their lectura material. The plot jumps all over the place and tu have to keep up and still,just when tu think you've got it all figured out, there's a twist.For it's sheer inventiveness, this book is highly recommended.

There are a myriad of ways the World as we know it could end. Will it be cataclysmic like nuclear bomb drops, huge volcanic eruptions, continent destroying earthquakes o invasions of violent mutations? o will it be something más slight that ends us like a financial meltdown o simple human greed and stupidity. Whatever the cause, the truth is the world will end someday and that día may well be today. Thankfully while society is still rumbling along nicely we all have the time to read apocalypse stories instead of wasting our time searching for comida and clean water whilst hiding from gangs...

Urban legends are everywhere. Everyone has one. Some tu may hear time and time again, each time the story may change a little but basically it's the same. Then there are myths of local legend. An escaped mental patient here, a restless ghost there, a spirit of a child who cries...you know what I mean. Basically, once you've read one book on Urban Legends, you've read them all. But, this book is different. The twist to this collection of ten short stories is that the writers involved are clever. They know tu know, they know that tu think tu know the ending so, with that in mind, they have...

H.P.Lovecraft and his works have inspired quite a few modern día horror writers. Some admit to his influence and use it as a springboard for their own works while some deny any knowledge whilst stealing heavily from the the great author. Thankfully Mr Gonzalez falls into the first category and this collection of short horror fiction excels at giving a macabre modern twist on some of Lovecraft's fundamental themes. Borrowing place names and situations to delve deep into the mythos that Lovecraft created, that of cults and conspiracies, of Old Gods that now banished from this realm await the...

There are seventeen tales here. All of which originated in some way from Post Mortem Press. It is a grand collection of short horror fiction written not only por some of the más well known horror writers around today (Jonathan Mayberry. F Paul Wilson) but also por some names tu may not be familiar with.

Stories included are:

The Stranger por Jason Downes; A mysterious man makes a late night call to collect a debt that was promised to him a long time ago.

Sewer Rats por C. Bryan Brown; A trio of kids adventuring in the sewers beneath their town soon discover something lurking deep in the darkness....

There are ten short stories here with no stinkers in the bunch. In fact, I enjoyed this book so much that I finished it in one sitting, constantly saying just one más story, just one más story and then when I had finished I wanted more.

There are a mixture of genres included here. A little bit of erotica, gore, gross, mystical, magical, twisted and nasty. You're personal tolerance for horror is your own of course, but this is certainly not the nastiest most horrific collection I have read but it does have enough great stories that, once read, sit at the back of your head and scratch at your...

Here is a eccentric and eclectic selection of bizarro short stories por one of the leading writers in the field Andersen Prunty.
There are over twenty tales in all, covering such weirdness as a man who puts a dog into orbit, a father who throws rocks at a kids head, a balloon-man who loses his secret power and a competition that revolves around injuring pedestrians to earn points and win money.
All these stories are exceptionally well written, brimming with invention and weirdness. Some lean on the horrific side of literature,some the más humorous and some a wild mixture of sorrow, fear and hope.
If tu are new to the bizarro fiction movement, tu could start here quite happily. This book isn't as extreme in terms of sex and violence as other collections but none the less an enthralling read about seeing the world through a glass askew.
This is a collection of 24 short stories all with a wicked, nasty twist on a holiday. From Earth día to Christmas,each story is incredibly horrific, demented and disturbing, not to mention well written, engaging and funny. Some of the best horror writers have added to this collection included Wrath James White, Bentley Little and Jack Ketchum, plus many more. The tales include Natures revenge on Earth Day. Torture at Easter. A nasty Mother's día present for an unwilling father and bloody sacrifice to every and any God that may o may not exist.
I have read quite a few short story collections and this is one of the best I've read. I think I liked it because not matter how dark, gross and horrifying the stories there's an underlying insane glee to all of them like mad people laughing at the moon while they eat their own fingers. There isn't a bad o boring story on mostrar here. All are well-written and the piece on the whole is also well edited.
Try this ebook, it's brilliant.
Thank you.
