Graverobbers, vengeful ghosts, reluctant killers, dead bodies in trunks, and monstrous entities abound in this chapbook of four stories and five flash-fiction stories from Darrell Z. Grizzle, horror and crime fiction author from shadow-haunted Marietta, Georgia. Includes the previously-unpublished dreadpunk story, “The Haunted Verger.” “Good shit right here. Tell ‘em I sent ya.” ~ Brian Panowich, author of Bull Mountain and Like Lions “You'll be hard-pressed to find a more enjoyable collection of stories than this one. Settle in with your drink of choice on a nice stormy night and enjoy, just make sure the doors are locked before you do.” ~ James R. Tuck, author of the Deacon Chalk series and more. “Sharp, tight, and tense writing tie all these stories together. Darrell Z. Grizzle’s talent for short, quick jabs to the the heart will keep you turning pages until the end. Once you catch your breath, you'll be wanting more.” ~ Nicole Givens Kurtz, author of Silenced: A Cybil Lewis Mystery “Darrell Z. Grizzle’s chapbook, I Never Meant to Start a Murder Cult, is a marvelously horrific collection of stories. Some, like ‘Moonlight Sonata, With Scissors,’ are downright disturbing. Others, such as ‘The Last Confession,’ will make you cheer for the hero. But all of them are wonderfully written and guaranteed to make readers gasp, ‘I didn’t see that coming!’ Grizzle has created a cast of characters that pull you in and hold on tight. I highly recommend his collection, but, unless readers are very brave, I also recommend that they enjoy them during daylight hours.” ~ Valjeanne Jeffers, author of the Immortal and Mona Livelong Paranormal Detective series “Darrell Z. Grizzle is a writer to watch. He has a feel for Southern Gothic and horror, not to mention a sly sense of humor. Recommended.” ~ Charles R. Rutledge, co-author of Congregations of the Dead and A Hell Within “Darrell Z. Grizzle has an immediately recognizable and decidedly unique voice. And I love it. He approaches his subjects from the side – never head on. Darkness abounds, yes, but it’s often couched in humor. And as he works his way to unexpected and often unpleasant endings, you will be enthralled. I was.” ~ Grant Jerkins, author of A Very Simple Crime and A Scholar of Pain
