About the book
A collection of short stories that go bump in the night. These stories dabble in Lovecraftian mythos, urban legends, and a side trip into time travel.
Inside the collection
- An urban legend from Carrie Tingley Hospital, New Mexico. Ghost stories have surrounded the hospital since it opened as a tuberculosis center in 1937. It was built to help, but the spirits of those who passed are still looking for a way out.
- An urban legend from the Alice Murders, an unsolved case where, even now, no one knows what happened or why. There are only questions.
- Who Do You Trust, a time-travel story about trusting the wrong person.
- Two takes on the Lovecraftian mythos: a priestess of Cthugha on Earth, and what happens when you play in the dream world.
