Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of the Bad Games and Wildlife series comes a chilling new novel of supernatural horror and suspense. Highland Elementary has a dark and disturbing past--so disturbing that locals ultimately burned the school to the ground. Years later, Pinewood Elementary is the future, and for new teacher Ryan Herb, a chance at a fresh start. But the townspeople don't believe that rebuilding the school and changing its name is enough. They believe that whatever evil inhabited the halls of Highland still dwells in Pinewood. Ryan is a realist and isn't the type to be affected by local lore. But when Ryan begins to experience horrifying visions of past tragedies, he starts to question his own beliefs. Something in the school is reaching out to Ryan for help, a potentially lethal request as something else--or someone else?--in the school is keen on keeping the evil therein very much alive. Can a skeptical Ryan unearth the origins of the evil's true source and put an end to it? Or will he, like many before him, become a permanent resident of the school himself? Rife with supernatural terror and intrigue, Dark Halls blurs the lines between horror and mystery--a whodunit that, when solved, proposes the even greater question of: how do you stop it?

Download or read book Things of Darkness written by Kim F. Hall and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-05 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Ethiope," the "tawny Tartar," the "woman blackamoore," and "knotty Africanisms"—allusions to blackness abound in Renaissance texts. Kim F. Hall's eagerly awaited book is the first to view these evocations of blackness in the contexts of sexual politics, imperialism, and slavery in early modern England. Her work reveals the vital link between England's expansion into realms of difference and otherness—through exploration and colonialism-and the highly charged ideas of race and gender which emerged. How, Hall asks, did new connections between race and gender figure in Renaissance ideas about the proper roles of men and women? What effect did real racial and cultural difference have on the literary portrayal of blackness? And how did the interrelationship of tropes of race and gender contribute to a modern conception of individual identity? Hall mines a wealth of sources for answers to these questions: travel literature from Sir John Mandeville's Travels to Leo Africanus's History and Description of Africa; lyric poetry and plays, from Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra and The Tempest to Ben Jonson's Masque of Blackness; works by Emilia Lanyer, Philip Sidney, John Webster, and Lady Mary Wroth; and the visual and decorative arts. Concentrating on the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Hall shows how race, sexuality, economics, and nationalism contributed to the formation of a modern ( white, male) identity in English culture. The volume includes a useful appendix of not readily accessible Renaissance poems on blackness.
Download or read book Down a Dark Hall written by A. Reid John a. Reid and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over three hundred halls of many different lengths form a confusing, dangerous maze in this enormous institute for criminally insane youth in the early 1960s. This story was inspired by the real experience of a 16-year-old youth whom was wrongfully convicted of a crime, then misdiagnosed as criminally insane. In this story, he is known by the pseudonym of Jeremy Calder. During his two-year incarceration, terror swept through the institute, often causing riots, when partly dismembered bodies of inmates were being found in the halls. The four central characters are Jeremy, Toby, Billy (The Rabid Butterfly), and Gary, with occasional appearances by God, Time, Night, Magic, and other mystical entities.

Download or read book The Darker Mask written by Gary Phillips and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2008-08-19 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wildly fantastic superhero stories by a cross section of today's cutting-edge urban fantasy and crime writers. Expanding on the concept behind Byron Preiss's Weird Heroes from the 1970s, George R. R. Martin's Wild Card series, and Michael Chabon's McSweeney's Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales, The Darker Mask is a collection of original prose stories recalling the derring-do of the beings we call Superheroes and the worlds they fight to save. But unique to The Darker Mask stories is that these plots and characters color a literary universe outside of what has been predominantly white, idiosyncratic, and male in previous homages to pulp. This is the stuff of urban legends, new mythos, and extraordinary folks who might live in a soon-to-be-gentrified ghetto, the dreary rust-belt of the city, or in another dimension. The Darker Mask offers an eclectic mix of popular fiction writers exploring worlds gritty, visceral, and fantastic. Includes contributions from L. A. Banks, Steven Barnes and Tananarive Due, Lorenzo Carcaterra, Christopher Chambers, Reed Farrel Coleman, Michael A. Gonzales, Gar Anthony Haywood, Naomi Hirahara, Mat Johnson, Victor LaValle, Walter Mosley, Ann Nocenti, Gary Phillips, Jerry A. Rodrigues, Alexandra Sokoloff, Peter Spiegelman, Wayne L. Wilson, and Doselle Young. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
