This is a collection of horror themed poetry delves into the subjects of hauntings, vampires, monsters, and more. The collection also celebrates the careers of horror idols including Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, Janet Leigh, and a handful of contributors to Weird Tales magazine. Join us on a tour of terror filled verse and enjoy A Willing Victim! Nicholas Montelongo's A Willing Victim is a dark and seminal collection for those who crave their horror lean and cut close to the bone. It opens doors that are best kept closed and locked, and unveils shadows and the disturbing things that lurk within. A must read for lovers of horror poetry that bites deeply and leaves lasting scars of darkness and dread. Ronald Kelly, author of Fear, Undertaker's Moon, and The Essential Sick StuffNicholas A. Montelongo's A Willing Victim and Other Poetry of the Macabre inveigles readers with They That Walk: A Narrative before steering them through twists of darkness both haunting and disturbing-as he frames it, through the sorrow of being/bitten by a world of sharp teeth-pausing to savor glimpses of Karloff and Lugosi, of H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith, of the unnamed and the unknowable, wherein lines repeatedly admonish us to reach indoors/before death prowls the night, only to deny that surcease and leave us enveloped within visions of eternal Outsiders peering in. Michael Collings. author of The Slab and Writing Darkness Nicholas Montelongo is a lover of classic horror and weird stories. He uses that passion to wonderful results in his debut publication, a poetry collection called A Willing Victim. The poems in the book deal with horror and monsters, and they delve into our deepest fears. Montelongo shares his devotion to classic horror fiction with these verses, but he also explores universal shadows that lurk in the recesses of everyone's hearts and minds. It's an outstanding assembly of poems that I recommend to those who do, and do not, care for the form. Mark Sieber, founder of the Horror Drive-In websiteMontelongo is a talent to watch, and his expertise is on full view in this book! - Michaelbrent Collings, bestselling author of Strangers and The Forest
