Containing a balance of new, revised, sequel stories, and poetry for true lovers of unsettling horror and suspense based themes.

Exert from story 5 - Devil's Daughter
It has been a long time since my world was torn away from sanity but as a father, I must carry on. Did I eventually realize that life needs to be written as it is ... God’s way? The answer was always – yes! No more do I dabble in pretending to be him and my resurrection days are long gone. My focus in life has been, being a father and that solely. Of course she is no ordinary daughter to raise by any means, but still, she is my daughter.

Petara is now 19 and she is unsettlingly beautiful, protruding cheeks, snow white skin, full body length of black hair and if you ask me who she more resembles, Petra or Barbara, well I change my mind daily. On the darkest days though, she is neither but I what do see is ... death. I have guided and protected her from all I can but she is now the monster I so despise. A girl that kills without reason or guilt. It was my doing so it is also my sole responsibility to clean up after her, hiding and disposing of the bodies. Why do I do this? I am the creator and if I have anything I can do to pay my penance for my ignorance then I must protect the world from her as much as humanly possible. Can I kill my own daughter? I am not so sure but her increasing thirst for blood leaves me no choice but to consider it.

Stories: 1 - The Dead Inside / 2 - Dark Lust - Into the Night / 3 - Cruise of a Deathtime / 4 - Alleandro /5 - Dark Lust 2 - Towards the Moon Exert from story 1 - The Dead Inside I was 11 nearly 12 when it happened, and what I still have no idea but only knowing I awoke to a new day of death. Everyone was dead, and I mean everyone, even my pet hamster, Tiffy. You can well imagine the distress of that initial day, finding my family not waking with me. I thought they were simply sleeping but they weren’t! I waited until 8:30 and believed they had just slept in being a weekend day. I was alerted when I turned on the TV to watch music video clips but the screen was just snow! So I turned it off and would ask Dad to fix it later, but he couldn’t, he was dead too! I finally gave in at 9:00 and went check on them with a fresh cup of tea each that I’d made to surprise them (with two slices of buttered toast). Mum’s opened mouth and the fear in her dead eyes made me drop the tray and I burnt my foot with the scalding liquid. I ran and shook her to wake her but she was dead and dead as Dad was. I stood there frozen looking at them wondering what at happened before my senses returned and I ran downstairs and would get help from Mr. Heckles next-door. I was banging hard on his front door when I saw him, lying there in his rose garden, with his mouth open like Mum’s. It was then I looked around and no one was on the streets. And I mean no one! I saw a car crashed into a lamp post and a body was slumped over the steering wheel so I ran as fast as I could to see if they were alright, but they weren’t! The family of four were all dead. I fell to my knees as the fear filled my tiny body, consuming my questions of why.

Book 2 - Before DARKNESS SHINES contains more murders and miracles than monsters but of course, there still is 1 or 2 lurking in there! 1 - The Miracle of Millie / 2 - Grammar Police / 3 - Deathday / 4 - Condemned / 5 - The Messenger / 6 - Black Sun Exert from Story 3 - Deathday There was only one sensible solution in reality, so - The World Commission did pass the constitutional law of ‘Deathday’ in the summer of ’35 with minimal political upheaval ... and how you ask? The images of a tearing-up Grandmother holding her newborn grandchild was sold to all, kissing him, hello and her saying goodbye. The gift of life from the gift of death! One replaces another! Who could ever argue against this, the cycle, the circle, and the unselfish giving? It was the perfect simplistic answer and had been the uncontested law for the last 53 years worldwide. Of course, there were some against this i.e. the last of their generations, but what did they have to gain? All they lost in return was being denied an untold amount of extra years; they all would die eventually! We are not stupid to know that - The World Commission had their own way of suppressing the unruly and there were many unanswered rumors networked around. But just as Aliens from outer space and Nessie from Lochness, we were still waiting for actual answers and proof. They had total control, and the proof wasn’t in the pudding here!
