    About this ebook

    An anthology of psychological macabre short stories

    ***Visit kennethwcain.com to see upcoming projects and links to free stories***

    A critically acclaimed short story collection of horror.

    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 short horror fiction where not everything is always what it seems.

    This anthology features stories with monsters, vampires, hardened criminals, cowboys, the handicapped, the suffering, the mentally challenged, aliens, and scientists. Whether these characters face personal hardships or battle horrible creatures from another dimension, you can expect the unexpected. Around each corner, behind each and every door, something is waiting for you. Characters will be tested, challenged to face alternate realities. Some will live, some will die, and some are already gone.

    There is a little something for every reader in these short stories. Check the sample to get a taste. And be sure to check out my other collection, Fresh Cut Tales.

    Praise for this collection:
    It's always fun to stumble across a writer you haven't read that has the 'write stuff.' ~ Gene O'Neill, THE BURDEN OF INDIGO and OPERATION RHINOCEROS HORNBILL

    Cain's unique eye for the macabre makes this collection more than worth it! ~ To The Bone Reviews

    Cain's skill as a writer is his ability to take mundane things most of us would never notice and turn them into true terror. ~ Blog Review
