Blurb:

The moon is full … the witching hour approaches … time to devour sacrificial offerings anew!

Drug-induced paranoia brings familiar television figures to sinister life …
Something nasty dwells beneath the floorboards of a country cottage, awaiting the new tenants…
An unexpected postal delivery leads to the uncovering of an ancient vampire‘s legacy …
Strange surgical practices are employed to remove a deadly tumour – with post-op consequences …

Traumatizing new tales of terror emerge from the tomb! The weird world of British horror cinema inspires this latest collection of devilish and disturbing fiction, putting fresh spins on a cornucopia of chilling characters last glimpsed through the haze of late-night television or encountered at a menacing midnight movie marathon. Dare you venture beyond the silver screen, into a nightmarish new dimension bringing all your frightening favourites to the printed page?

Be brave, be bold … or be buried!
