The 13: Tales of Macabre

By Stephanie Ayers

Can you survive all 12?

Killer watermelons, murderous jewelry boxes, centenarian sea whisperers, creatures of myth/legend, and more...

This supernatural story collection will make you reconsider everything you thought you knew. At night you'll hover under your covers while looking over your shoulder in the day.

Down, down in the depths they fell; bodies in the dark of a liquid hell.

Can you survive all 12?

Includes a forward by JM Ames and poetry by Stacy Overby.

Stephanie Ayers is the word whisperer where horror and fantasy collide. A published author with a trunk full of tricks thanks to a checkered past, she haunts Irish castles and snowy mountaintops in her dreams while living the unicorn life in Ohio disguised as a human. When she isn’t listening to the voices in her head, she spends her days as a mom, gramma, cat mom, avid flea market shopper, and Netflix binger, while avoiding housework and zombies at all costs.To find out more about Stephanie's daily living and all about her books and writing, subscribe to her newsletter: https://www.subscribepage.com/o6e0l9Her favorite quote is: "The blank page is a canvas on which the writer paints a story."-Stephanie Ayers
