Ed Gorman, award winning author of BAD MOON RISING From a simple-minded man left to fend for himself against both a swamp creature and a homicidal maniac, to a vampire looking for an antidote for a disease killing him, these tales are from the crypt of the deep South. This is where bogeymen walk and Tarot cards come alive, where an old woman knows the world beyond her land doesn't exist and a man in prison needs to perform one last act of violence. Raw tales, poetic tales, tales from the crypt. Bonus inclusion: Chapters from BANISHED, Billie Sue Mosiman's new novel.
