**This collection contains every story from Attic Clowns Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3 and Volume 4.** Bram Stoker Award nominee Jeremy C. Shipp spins 13 tales of horror and dark humor in this highly conceptual collection. Angels and demons, husbands and wives, tormented ghosts and an army of men made of soap--all of them trapped in attics of the mind, attics of heaven or hell, the attics we make for ourselves or with which we ensnare others. Meet a paranoid astronaut whose jealousy drives him to extremes beyond murder...a miniature circus spawned from the mind of a woman with too much control...the underling demon Globcow who desires redemption even more than the taste of human feet... Men, women, children, and things beyond imagination all interconnect in ATTIC CLOWNS, where laughter is only the prelude to the bizarre and terrible. The stories include: Spider Clowns from Planet X Microcircus Princess Dust Bunnies Don’t Laugh Blister A Quivering Gray Fog The Ascension of Globcow the Foot Eater Little Mouse Soapmen The Glass Box The Hobo Giggles “Jeremy C. Shipp’s boldness, daring, originality, and sheer smarts make him one of the most vital younger writers who have colonized horror literature in the past decade. Shipp’s modernist clarity, plus his willingness to risk damn near everything, put him up at the head of the pack with the very best.” –Peter Straub, author of Ghost Story "Shipp's clear, insistent voice pulls you down into the rabbit hole and doesn't let go." --Jack Ketchum, author of The Girl Next Door
