20 SHORT STORIES OF WHEN THE MACABRE & HUMANITY CLASH

Massive spiders attack a hotel. A ghost cat that’s part of a paranormal revenge scheme. Two gunslingers refuse to duel. A haunted marine base flightline. A witch barista. A rattlesnake bite that creates multiverses. A fortune teller who is always right and always wrong. A dead, newlywed werewolf in a drainpipe. A mermaid whose captor is using her tail for meat …

What do they all have in common? Music inspired the stories in this collection. Some songs are mainstream; others are obscure. Regardless of whether you know the songs, these tales will make you laugh, gasp, tremble, and fill you with childlike nostalgia, while you pull the bedsheets to your eyes to check once more that your closet door isn’t still creaking open by itself …

List of artists who I adapted for these stories: Moby, Jethro Tull, Porcupine Tree, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Nine Inch Nails, The The, Kenny Rogers, Stanford Prison Experiment, The Police, Quicksand, Peter Gabriel, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Tori Amos, And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead, The Who, Live, Panic at the Disco, Queen, R.E.M., & Neil Diamond.
