The Thirteen Ghastly Tales in this short story collection represent over a decade of macabre musings by award-winning horror and suspense author, B.D. Prince-many inspired by the imagined terrors of adolescence, some based on real-life horrors, others triggered by story prompts posed by anthology calls.
Amongst these twisted tales, you will find a mix of dark fiction ranging from sci-fi (The Last Drive-in Movie) to paranormal (Into the Shadows) to Native American mythos (Mighty Bear) to serial killers (Chanel No. 1, Witness). Prince's love for the circus and sideshows is evident in multiple stories, as you'll soon discover.
As you delve into the dark, twisted labyrinth of B.D. Prince's imagination, you may detect the influence of the classic EC Comics, TV series like The Twilight Zone, Night Gallery, Alfred Hitch-cock Presents, made-for-TV movies like Trilogy of Terror, and anthology films like Creepshow, Tales from the Crypt, Twilight Zone: The Movie, Asylum, etc.
So climb aboard the crazy train of Prince's imagination. Next stop, your nightmares...
BONUS: Have you ever wondered where writers get their ideas? B.D. Prince has pulled back the curtain and revealed his inspiration for these tales at the end of each story in a section called Backstory. It's a fascinating look inside the creative mind you're sure to enjoy!
