A Taste Of Terror, 31 Ventures into Madness

An enhanced collection of reader’s favorites-contest winners-best suspense short stories-flash fiction-smoke long-sudden frightening fiction 31 Stories, with original illustrations. WARNING AHEAD! Do you ever feel like traveling down the shady path? Running in the dark? Climbing into a crevasse of unknown blackness? Not somewhere too different from your safe reality, but enough. When you arrive at this destination, everything will be slightly off. Not familiar territory, but somewhere tasting of evil and bitten by madness. The light not natural, but dull and tinged with shadow. Shapes moving too close, almost touching. The smells stronger and the odors rancid, rot mixed with car exhaust, just sufficient enough to insist you hold your breath. The taste of a bitter pill, spoiled meat, and possibly poison. Perhaps a tainted pie? The sounds louder, only hollow with the whistle of a coming train, a steel shovel moving in the air, the trigger of a revolver cocking, a black crow’s wings flapping, lightning hitting dirt, a flash of flame, a straightjacket buckling behind you, or a bite to the neck. Perhaps some places are not so desperate, but only twisted, a mind damaged, a surprise you won’t expect. Your journey has led you into a collection of flash fiction and short stories written to make you cringe, smirk, and feel the hairs on your arms rise in warning. A last stop into madness and murder. All aboard! Mayhem just ahead.
