Prepare the Coffin Tales of the Macabre

Life runs amuck in Blackthorn, Pennsylvania, and residents are rarely safe from the hands-or claws-of nefarious forces. From tragic accidents to revenge slayings to supernatural encounters, trouble is always afoot.

A dream excursion to the Great Pyramids of Giza turns into a nightmare.
A tenant becomes consumed by her desire to stay home.
A husband's plan to collect his wife's inheritance hits a snag.
A young writer goes to dangerous extremes bringing realism to her work.
A camp counselor receives more than she bargained for at a bonfire.

In these stories and more, the people of Blackthorn are dying to meet you.
