    About this series

    He was halfway up the stairs when he heard the banging on his front door.  John froze for a second, wondering who would be knocking his door at this late hour.  He turned and headed slowly down the stairs, moving right up to the front door, straining his ears to see if he could detect any sounds from beyond the partition. He was inches from it when there was more banging.

    John jumped back, his heart thudding harder now. He saw that the chain was on but he hesitated as he reached for the handle, finally opening the door a crack.

    There was no one on the doorstep.  He opened it a little further and peered out into the night, only the streetlamps offering any illumination.

              John was about to duck back inside the house when something loomed at him from the side of the porch...

     

    More stories to haunt your dreams are presented here within these pages.  Tales of a neighbour with a terrible fear.  Of an artist who uses the most unusual objects to make his craft come alive.  Stories about strange beliefs and a desperate desire to know that there is something beyond death.  A couple lost in a forest discover what they think is salvation from their plight but much more besides.  Is a baby monitor as innocent as it appears?  What if it picks up more than the sound of a child?  A hitman hired to kill a recluse discovers that this is one deal he really shouldn't have taken on.  A woman afraid of Witchcraft finds she has good reason to fear a new arrival in her village.

              These are just some of the stories within this volume.  Stories of revenge, terror, the unknown, creatures beyond belief.  Stories that will make you think, make you shudder but, above all, make you want to leave the light on after reading them...

       "…She glanced out over the churning waves, thinking how dark and forbidding the sea looked tonight.  She could hear it lashing against the pier and, more than once, she fancied she felt the structure beneath her move slightly.  She reached down slowly and unzipped the holdall.  Inside there were towels and pieces of rag.  Inside those was a baby. No older than six weeks, the child was crying softly and it continued to do so even when Polly picked it up and held it before her.  She swallowed hard and held the child higher, advancing again towards the wooden rail that surrounded the walkways of the pier.  The only thing that separated her from the sea.  She held the child over the rail for a second, its cries lost beneath the raging sound of the waves.           Polly dropped the baby….."   There is something here for everyone.  Monsters in train tunnels.  Savage attack dogs loose in a luxury building.  Wishes made that can cripple and kill.  Children kidnapped to appease a monstrous entity from the sea.  A psychotic Virtual Assistant that turns a house into a chamber of horrors.  The terrifying aftermath of a robbery.  A horrifying 'game' designed to welcome new residents to a village.  A reminder that you should never, ever pick up hitchhikers.           These are just some of the stories you'll find in this collection.  All kinds of tales to send shivers down your spine.           Stories to be read with the lights on and the curtains drawn.           Go on…we dare you…
