These Old Tales

A collection of horror and dark fiction short stories for those who want to read a quick tale in their spare time. Fans of classic TV series like The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, One Step Beyond, or any similar dark fiction or paranormal series will enjoy this collection of psychological speculative fiction where not everything is always what it seems. There is a little something for every reader in these short stories, including: monsters, vampires, hardened criminals, cowboys, the handicapped, the suffering, the mentally challenged, aliens, scientists, and characters facing personal hardships and battling horrible creatures from other dimensions. Around each corner, behind each and every door, something new and otherworldly is waiting for readers. These characters are challenged to face alternate realities. Some will live. Some will die. Some are already gone.
