    About this ebook

    13 bone-chilling stories about ghosts, vengeful lovers, scary parents, and spooky basements. In these stories time and space are no barrier to horror. Each story is short enough to be read in a few minutes, but they're guaranteed to haunt your thoughts for a lot longer than that. Whether it's subtle horror or downright blood-curdling primal fear, you'll find it here. This collection is a good introduction to the horror writing of John McDonnell.

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      He is sitting opposite me, staring blankly like a dead fish. Stone eyes. Cobalt and lifeless. Pale gray skin, dripping scales. I imagine him hauled out of the water and dumped on the riverbank, gasping for breath. Just as he deserves. I only agreed t

      “What’d you do now?” he hollered. Sheriff Thorn’s words struck my heart. Without thinking, I grasped the knife to pull it from her chest. “Shit, you crazy coot, drop it,” he snarled, then grabbed me up and slammed me against the side of the cruiser.

      Book Title: 13 Horror StoriesAuthor: John McDonnellKindle EditionASIN: b004JF4MDIReviewed by Michele Tater for The Couch Tater ReviewHorror is beyond the reach of psychology.~ Theodor Adorno The stories in this fun read are short but are not, of course, sweet for they are horror stories after all. Although most of the tales are not what you would call overly “horrorly” horror stories, they do have a scarey element to them. Each having a different story line with a surprise at the end. Some leave the reader wondering what the “monster” looks like, where some others show the monster as an human.The book reminded me of episodes that could be shown on either The Twilight Zone or The Outer Limits. Both being great entertaining television and which were not over the top with the blood and gore aspects of some horror. These tales could easily be told around the camp fire or during a power outage to pass the time. Great book to have on hand for Halloween parties as well. I would recommend book to all the enjoy a little scariest in there reading. Also would be an interesting book to discuss during a book club perhaps near the Halloween season.
