Book Review – Helminth by S. Alessandro Martinez
I knew kind of a little about the premise of this story before diving in. A haunted house tale, right? Well, no. On the surface you’d be forgiven for thinking this – four friends getting away from it all to… Read More ›

Book Review – Five Doses by Mark Cassell
This collection of five stories reads more like an anthology. Each tale is so varied that you’d be forgiven for thinking they were written by five different authors. And that, is a great thing. There are many horror elements on… Read More ›
