Book excerpt: (New adult paranormal fantasy with witches, vampires, werewolves) California Bound “Where are you going?” Sage wants to follow me, but I have to do this alone. “We need passports,” I say, heading for the door. “Money and other papers. I know someone in the city who can get them for us.” Sage’s scent turns to fear. “You’re talking about the Mafia.” I smile back at him, one hand on the rusting door knob. “I am,” I say. “But who do you think should be afraid—them or me?” Charlotte and Sage flee across Europe, heading for America and the cure she hopes will save him from devolving into a soulless animal. But escape is much more complicated than she thought. Tracked and hunted by those with magic and driven by her refusal to quit, Charlotte’s past and the laws of her people push her to put them both at risk on a long shot that might end up hurrying Sage’s transformation into a revenant.

Book excerpt: When a decades-old mass grave near a notorious Biloxi nightclub is unearthed, reporter Carson Lynch is among the first on the scene. The remains of five women lie within, each one buried with a bridal veil—and without her ring finger. Once an award-winning journalist, Carson knows her career is now hanging by a thread. This story has pulled her out of a pit of alcohol and self-loathing, and with justice and redemption in mind she begins to investigate.

Download or read book Shadows and Cypress written by Alan Brown and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2000 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bewitching convocation of Dixie's most frightening ghost tales From backwaters as dark as a cypress swamp to nooks as mysterious as a musty college library, southerners have conjured spirits and told ghost stories. "Shadows and Cypress: Southern Ghost Stories" is a Dixie s(r)ance that summons ghost tales from Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Collecting more than a dozen stories from each state, this book channels the South's entire panorama of creepy locales into one volume. The limestone caves of Kentucky, the swamps of Louisiana and Florida, the pine hills and hollows of Appalachia, and the plains of Texas -- these are perfect haunts for a host of narratives about visitors from the spirit world. The many cultures that converged in the American South enriched the region's ghost stories. "Shadows and Cypress" taps African American, French, Hispanic, and Scotch-Irish storytelling traditions to capture the distinctive signatures that each has left on ghostlore. Throughout the region, the southern ghost story is hardly a curio from the crypt. It's still alive and well. Folklorist Alan Brown draws stories from crannies as contemporary as the college dormitory or cars parked on a lover's lane. To give the reader the unique experience of hearing a classic ghost story told, Brown presents these tales exactly as they were recorded in his field research or as archived in the trove of the WPA oral collections. A wide variety of spectres found only in this region arise in "Shadows and Cypress." The fillet and loogaru from Louisiana, plat-eye from South Carolina, and haints from across Dixie are among the creatures bumping in the night. Beginning with the Revolutionary War and continuing to present day, this generous gathering of tales will chill and delight readers and long haunt shelves as a comprehensive sourcebook of the region's supernatural allure. Alan Brown is a professor of English at the University of West Alabama. He has published several books, including "Dim Roads and Dark Nights" (1993) and "The Face in the Window and Other Alabama Ghostlore" (1996).

Download or read book 13 A Collection of Horror and Weird Fiction written by Michael Boatman and published by Crossroad Press. This book was released on 2016-02-27 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 13 is a collection of horror stories reflecting various elements of the American Dream. But here, the Dream has been twisted beyond easy recognition. These tales of Americana gone hideously and sometimes hysterically wrong feature a dark parade of misunderstood monsters, homicidal heroes, invading aliens, media-friendly fiends, rogue presidents… and even an occasional zombie. Like the funhouse mirrors in a carnival for crackheads, these stories reflect (and distort) the diversity of ills faced by a spinning roulette wheel of alternate Americas. Here you’ll find Americas that might have been or, perhaps, one that lurks, giggling and debauched, just over the next horizon. The inhabitants of these other Americas tell jokes that cut. One or two of them might carry a cream pie in one hand and a switchblade concealed down the backs of their pants. Their Home Sweet Horrors occupy strange colonies; realms that lie both within and outside traditional genre identifications, spanning the literary range from weird western, urban fantasy, comic crime, science- fiction and subtle political commentary (with cannibals.) There’s even a Christmas story, a tale of childhood survival featuring the last person you might reasonably expect to meet during the zombie apocalypse. In our reality, ever since the founding of the original thirteen colonies, the American Dream remains strong, of course; a clarion call to action for friends and enemies alike. Therefore, many of the stories in 13 can be enjoyed strictly for laughs. But in a nation fraught with environmental catastrophes, global conflicts, economic, religious and racial unrest, when the real monsters finally show up to check out the neighborhood… who’s to say the joke’s not on us? Stories included in this collection: The Flinch Hadley Shimmerhorn: American Icon Born Again Manny Miracle Is Alive and Well and Dying in the 29th Dimension! A Father’s Work Our Kind of People The Greenhouse Jimmy Sticks and the Outlaw Critter of Doom Across the Black Plains Christmastime in Zombietown Folds Survivor: Monster Island 2025 The Last American President

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canterbury Nightmares is a collection of stories from the edge of the abyss. Combining the essence of Chaucer’s pilgrims on their journey to a shrine, with what appeared to be the end of a global pandemic, these tales were born in a time when personal connections were few, breathing the air in a grocery store felt unsafe, and the country was dissolving into seemingly irreparable divisions. Eleven travelers heading out to visit The Grand Canyon. All of them have their reasons. All of them have their losses, and their pain. All of them are dark. From an old man taking a promised journey with his wife, to a congregation that has lost its way, from different backgrounds and cultures, to different ways of dealing with grief, loss, and isolation, this book will take you places you do not expect.

Download or read book Sick Things written by Tim Curran and published by Red Room Press. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comet Press presents the ultimate collection of extreme creature horror with 17 deviant and gore-soaked stories featuring demons, cannibals, mutants, golems, werewolves, and many more vile creatures. Brace yourself for a wild and bestial ride in these disturbing tales of Sick Things. FANGORIA MAGAZINE REVIEW "Cover every orifice. Comet Press' new collection SICK THINGS: AN ANTHOLOGY OF EXTREME CREATURE HORROR is making a beeline for the soft contents of your body—and it doesn't care one bit where it makes its grand entrance, orbital sockets or otherwise. Rest assured this violation will be painful, given the tight confinements of our fallible frames of flesh—but anything less than a full-on ass-rape would probably seem insufficient in the eyes of editrix Cheryl Mullenax. Read on at your own stomach's peril." FATALLY YOURS REVIEW "If you are an extreme fan of horror looking for the ultimate in disgusting, vile and disturbing fiction, Sick Things: An Anthology of Extreme Creature Horror is a must-read…just make sure you have your barf bag handy!" TOXIC GRAVEYARD REVIEW "Recently I’ve discovered the awesomeness that is Comet Press. There is a myriad of small press horror publishers out there, and more seem to be popping up all the time. Many times these small press companies promise “extreme” horror but often what you get is a poorly edited book riddled with grammatical and spelling errors with mediocre unknowns sandwiched between old stories from established authors. Thank goodness for Comet Press. I’ve reviewed their previous releases Vile Things and The Death Panel and loved em both. The bar was set high for Sick Things, and it soared over it on cloven hoof."
Download or read book Slingers written by Jason M. Green and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-07-20 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few years into the American Civil War, mysterious events began occurring and they caused the North and South to put aside their differences and unite once more to battle the common threat. However, the might of their newly united armies was not enough to combat things that were once thought to be merely myth and they were forced to rely on men and women who had unusual powers and who were just as mysterious as the creatures that they were fighting. These people were viewed as a necessary evil and they came to be called Spellslingers. Most were little better than mercenaries and bounty hunters, but no one could argue with their effectiveness when it came to dealing with things beyond the comprehension of mere mortals. Over two decades after the end of the Civil War, a pair of Slingers named Jacob and Nathaniel Kreed are made unwilling participants in a plot that has the potential to bring about the end of humanity. Together with a mercenary and a female Slinger, and armed with only their weapons and their special abilities, they travel the southern United States and part of Central America in search of answers and a way to save a world filled with people who hate and fear them. They all know that whether they win or lose, nothing will ever be the same.
Download or read book The Dreams of Interpretation written by Catherine Liu and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethinking the importance of Sigmund Freud’s landmark book The Interpretation of Dreams a century after its publication in 1900, this work brings together psychoanalysts, philosophers, cultural theorists, film and visual theorists, and literary critics from several continents in a compilation of the best clinical and theoretical work being done in psychoanalysis today. It is unique in convening both theory and practice in productive dialogue, reflecting on the encounter between psychoanalysis and the tradition of hermeneutics. Collectively the essays argue that Freud’s legacy has shaped the way we think about not only psychology and the nature of the self but also our understanding of politics, culture, and even thought itself.
