Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring twenty-one different voices hailing from five different countries and eleven states, Ghosts, Goblins, Murder, and Madness is certain to strike a chord with every horror aficionado. Devil's Night, Day of the Dead, and Halloween have been celebrated around the world in one form or another, beginning with the Ancient Celts over two-thousand years ago. For some revelers, it's a time for guising, or dressing up in elaborate costume; for others, it's a time for practical jokes and mischief, and for some, it's a reverent occasion to acknowledge the thin line between earth and the spirit world. In this same vein, the stories in this collection provide a wide-angle lens at what comprises the unique expanse of horror fiction today. From hobgoblins and apparitions, to haunted dwellings andcursed possessions, to good intentions gone awry and evil ones turned on the perpetrator, these twenty tales will unsettle, frighten, tickle, and caution, and in the end, readers may take heed before ever again accompanying their children trick-or-treating, striking up conversations in anonymous chat rooms, or fortifying their homes in an attempt to prevent Halloween vandalism. Featuring the following stories and authors: Asking for It (JR Pepper), Tenants (George Plank), Foul Treats (Jon Steffens), The Boatman's Rhyme (Neil May), Gate Night (Nick Manzolillo), Dear Dead Jenny (Ian McDowell), Alone on Halloween (Michael Gore), Home (Lewis Crane), The Bathroom Mirror (Kenneth Stephenson), Small Bites (Rebecca Rowland), The Hermit of Singer's Creek (J.
