Strange People, Scary People
 
A new book that just came out by Tally Harbour. A collection of short stories about very "weird, scary" people.
Here's a video he made about it.

Hi peeps, as a first time author and a huge fan of horror and the paranormal I am looking for avid readers of new horror stories. My debut ebook which is now available on the iBookstore and Nook is in desperate need of some horror fans!!!!

:D It is only 99p/cents/euros and any other currency there is lol

A free sample is also available on the iBookstore so feel free to check that out ( try before you buy kinda thing)

Would appreciate it a lot and would love some feedback from you guys :) If your interested here's the details:

EBook: Shadows

Author: R.A. Harris (search this in iBookstore for quick find )

Plot: Stalked by a shadow figure and haunted with nightmares that seem real, Sarah Fraser has been sentenced to life in a mental institute for the murder of her two best friends. When the figure begins to invade her every thought, the lines between what's real and what's not begin to merge, causing her to fear for her life....


Thanks to anyone who decides to take a look :) Also any good horror stories you can recommend ??? Need my fix haha :)

I just finished 'Treehouse' by K.R. Mack on my Kindle. Excellent book. Spooked me out more than once. I'm hoping to find more work by this author. Anybody know of any?

neverending 07-15-2012 11:11 AM

I'm sure you know this is the only book you've published, Mr. Mack.

Thanks for answering a question intended for me :p

I liked it but i found her descriptions a bit confusing at times. The monster was cool though.

This wouldn't be considered horror :P
Blood Promise: A Vampire Academy novel by Richelle Mead.
My current interest is teen supernatural books....cause I'm a nerd.

Nothing nerdy about that. I read The Last Apprentice books and that's supernatural teen books. Just more on the monsters and horror side and less on the emomantic sparkly vampire side of things.

Yeah, there's definitely nothing nerdy about that.

Anyway, I'm currently reading The 9/11 Report: A Graphic Adaptation.

Oh my seriously I've only just seen this-what did you think of it? I really like James Patterson so very interested to know if the collaboration worked well.

I confess: it's the ONLY book of his I've read. You'd have to ask someone that's read more of his work.

Im reading "Flesh Field" by Metin Vardar. Recently discovered the execellent site, http://www.bloodmoonpublishing.com/s...ARGE&x=68&y=53

Which is surprisingly good.

Im not quite used to reading for longer periods on digital platforms. My eyes are easily tired. Anyone experienced the same?

It's actually the opposite for me I can't read small print without my glasses and even wearing them while I read, my eyes get tired easily. I've never had this problem with Ebooks which is why I only read them now plus I just don't have the space any more for any more books.

Robert McCammon is considered to be one of the original splatterpunks but much of his later work doesn't reflect that.

Nat94 07-29-2012 10:37 AM

Fifty shades darker, :/ .. I'm ready to take the mean comments, I just couldn't help myself.
