Brushes with the Supernatural

This chilling anthology recounts what happens to ordinary people when they are suddenly faced with things they can't explain rationally. While some are what you might expect from decades of horror stories, others take "the road less traveled." Melissa Nelson is faced with "The Scarecrow of Bachmieir Farm", and she begins to doubt her sanity as she becomes certain it is moving when no one is looking. Teenagers discover "She Is Not Dead, But Sleepeth" when they dabble with something they think is only a party game. Baron Rokosky has always known "The Blood Is the Life", but he uncovers new meaning to that phrase when intruders enter his castle -- and disappear. Atheist Colton Bremerton is forced to ask for help from the Christians he despises and learns "The Cost of an Exorcism" might be more than he is willing to pay. Alesio DeLuca responds to his sister-in-law's urgent call for help and belatedly realizes he might not be a match for "That Which Seethes Within." Faith healers Dakota and Emily Peterson learn how easily the "The Road to Hell" is traveled. Aging Patience Bellamy finds "The Cuckoo" and makes a decision that has far reaching and long term consequences she could never have imagined. Finally, in a past time, Tyemon meets "The Antrix and the Aeoli", two mythological beings he discovers are all too real. Whatever the tale, you are certain to be surprised. These novellas, novelettes, and short stories can be purchased separately. "The Blood Is the Life" has also been collected in the anthology, "A Little Bit of Everything."
