Today
is the official release of Nightmares and
Echoes 2: The Return. Last year of
October 2014, Nightmares and Echoes had releases, containing my Halloween
horror reprint story, “Give Me Something Good to Eat.” This new anthology has a new tale of mine, set
on Halloween, “Silence.”
What
is it about Halloween that is perfect for those ghostly legends, or monsters
coming out of the woodwork, or even evil people with hatchets out for
innocents’ blood? Horror happens year round—right? And yet, Halloween adds a
bit of scary spice to a horror story the others months don’t. Why else do we
read The Legend of Sleepy Hollow then
at this time of the year? Why else would Ray Bradbury’s works be but during
October?
So
come and buy Nightmares and Echoes 2: The
Return. Find it on Kindle and in print at Amazon and AmazonUK. But let me
warn those faint of heart….you just might want to read in a well-lit room and
make sure all doors and windows are locked, for maybe , just maybe, the
monsters, witches and ghosts within the words on these pages might came and…GET
YOU!
