Chilling, to say the least!
"Within this book resides 15 dark tales, stories that do more than thrill and chill, that aspire to leave readers not only changed, but scarred. Prepare to be Traumatized. Author Alexander S. Brown explores the darkest recesses of the heart and soul to bring readers to the edge of the abyss, ready to see themselves in the hole below. (This book) exposes the depths of human depravity and the dank realms of the macabre. Learn of a depraved congregation beyond the comforts of church. Journey that downward spiral that forces a morally corrupt celebrity to revile her ugliness. Experience the lengths to which a madman will go to keep his true love."
I couldn't have said it better myself. This description of this book is absolutely perfect. Brown has a way with words and a skill with the English language that makes his reading not only intriguing but downright scary! These stories, although not written in the same manner per se, do indeed hold a reminiscence to the works of Lovecraft and even Poe in some instances. I think they both would be very flattered by your work Alexander.
This is the second book I've read from this author and I have to say I am beginning to really love his writing. His style is very simple and easy to follow. You can tell he puts a lot of work and thought into what is written. I am very impressed. In a world as jaded as we are it is very difficult to write good horror stories these days. But none the less this author seems to pull it off with flying colors. Well done! I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes horror or just a good ghost story 👻.

Watch out! This book may give you the creeps! Reader beware!!!
A scary story come to life, a ghost that tells her side of the story, a Halloween seance, a witch who will steal your soul, a scarecrow that comes to life and craves blood, and other deliciously scary tales.
Reminiscent of the scary stories series by Alvin Schwartz, this was a delightful little read. Unlike Schwartz however the author was able to change his writing style slightly from story to story. It was very refreshing for an anthology book. Most of the stories center around Halloween making this a perfect read for October. I would definitely recommend this book to anybody who likes scary anthologies.… (meer)
