From the gothic to the gory, this ghostly collection will keep you awake long into the witching hours of night. Step into the twisted warren of a lunatic mind, face the angered spirits of a haunted mansion, or escape a cursed forest's ancient monster. Whichever story you choose, be sure to keep the lights on. Featuring short stories seen in publications from the likes of Flame Tree Press, ID Press, and Horror Tree, plus six brand new tales. “ Stormy nights, abandoned places, shadows along the wall . These stories captured the classic feel of Gothic tales told by the fire many years ago.” Marianne Halbert, author of Cold Comforts “This book revived my love of short stories.

I was scared, uncomfortable and smiling all at the same time. 5 Yellow Pills in a Tiny Paper Cup out of 5 .” – Youtube reviewer, Steve Talks About Books & Stuff “After reading this collection, I stare forlornly out my window, grasping my lace coverlet to my throat while storm clouds build outside…where opium was still a valid treatment plan and the ghosts are ever so friendly… Perfect Gothic horror .” Reviewer, Sarah Duck-Mayr Visit www.authorhbdiaz.com for new release announcements, free reads, and more.
