Twisted Shorts

Twisted: The shadowy malevolence hidden in the most traumatized of cerebrums. The tightness of a solid knot that pushes the final breath from a doomed hangman. A word used to describe the darker, seedier side of society. The spine-tingling sound of the maniacal laugh from a creepy stranger.

From Andrew Lennon comes Twisted Shorts. Featuring a foreword from the future of horror, Michael Bray, this collection of 10 short stories delves into the darker side of society. With four unpublished stories, including "Devourer," "Slayer" and "Tears of a Clown," the words within will give you nightmares.

So what do we have? A husband who glimpses his sinister future; a man haunted by his vivid nightmares; homicidal maniacs; creatures from the deep depths of the ocean, and a bullied child who fights back. We also drop in on an auditor on the brink of insanity; a young girl haunted by her dead best friend; a surgeon on a bloody, vengeful mission; a tale of the undead, and a vengeful clown.

Sound familiar? They should, after all these people could be your neighbor, your friend, your mother, your child's teacher, your deliveryman, your gynecologist, or even you - just give it time.

Twisted Shorts - the duration is little but the memory will live long.
