From the time we are small there are things that frighten us. As children we have the monster under the bed, the monster in the closet, and the monster that is this close to snatching us from behind when we’re on our way up the basement stairs alone, and we can’t look back because if we saw him he’d be real, and he would get us. And as we grow and change the things we are afraid of change with us: in grammar school the monster has moved out into the streets, and we fear “Stranger Danger”; in high school the monsters are inside of us, and we fear failure, and the possibility that we might not fit in; as adults our fears are everywhere, from worry about our jobs to the guy who’s driving erratically in the lane beside us to the silent return of “Stranger Danger”—this time fearing for children of our own. As new fears filter into our lives we try to forget the old ones. But, though they might not frighten us any more, they are never quite forgotten. We all remember the monster under the bed; the monster in the closet. I’m forty-five years old and I still won’t look back on the basement stairs, because I swear to God that son of a bitch is getting closer every time.
What you hold in your hands is the combined work of fifty people who have opened up that dark door in their hearts and minds to offer you one thing—just one thing each—that frightens them, selecting from the gamut of fears they’ve had in their lives, from childhood to now. Disappearing children, ghosts, road rage, mental instability, vampires and more: somewhere in this book, possibly many places in this book, you’ll find the things you are afraid of—even some things you thought you’d forgotten. We hope you enjoy Demonic Visions 5, a book filled with frightening thoughts and boogeymen so numerous and familiar you’ll put it down knowing you are not alone in your fears. Especially on those basement stairs. Whatever you do, don’t look back. —Rob Smales

It was long (in a good way) thrilling

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2016

Verified Purchase

I seek out horror anthologies, and this one is at the absolute top of my list of favorites. It was long (in a good way) thrilling, engaging and scary. For a wonderful price. The stories were original and not redundant or boring by any means. I can't wait for more books from Chris!

Margie Don't Know What She Wants

This was great. My favorite story was Margie Don't Know What She Wants, which I read late at night on my Kindle, in the dark. It thoroughly creeped me out in the most wonderful of ways.

From "The Horror Fiction Review"

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2015

Are you ready for fifty MORE quick little rabbit-punches to your various nerve-endings? Because, if so, here they are in this latest – fifth! – installment of the prolific Demonic Visions series. Some familiar names and some new ones can be found among the lineup, and the stories offer another fun variety of reads.

As usual, I had a hard time narrowing my top picks to just a few, but, here goes:

“Muse Sick” by Shaun Avery will speak to the creative and artistic types among us … it’ll speak, and what it has to say may be tempting, but is also kind of clammy, cold, and skin-crawly repulsive. Meanwhile, Mike Leon’s “The Break Up” and Kerry G.S. Lipp’s “Broken Glass” bring two different but very squickworthy doses of graphic gore to make even the seasoned splatterhound flinch.

Jay Wilburn’s “Angels Looking Out For Us” is a view of the End of Days from a side not often seen: the thankless side of those stuck with the fiddly nuisance finishing touches and cleanup of a big job.

“The Eleventh Piper” by Rebecca Fung gives the twisted fairy tale treatment to a classic holiday carol, with evilicious results. Rick A. Carroll’s “Smoke” is like folklore of another sort, a darker sort, beautifully written.

Max Booth’s “A Moment of Silence” hit a particular nerve; they may say people don’t talk anymore, only text, but imagine if speech was suddenly not an option.

“Swarm” by Nicholas Paschal was one I’d been privileged to read beforehand; a real treat to see it here and know that the clattering bones found a good home! Likewise Shenoa Carroll-Bradd’s “Made to be Broken,” a touching tale of beyond mere until-death-do-us-part.

Vince Liberato’s “The Devil’s Spotlight” shines harsh and unforgiving on the nature of self-sacrifice vs. self-preservation, in a hungry world gone mad, while “Believe” by Marc Shapiro wonders what we’d lose if we started getting proof that the wackjob conspiracy theorists had it right all along.

Great short stories and new authors, such as Megan N. Watson

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2015

Especially loved Megan Watson's stories in this series. Her stories always have a unique approach to horror. Also, loved the short story form, for short reads, great for waiting in doctor's office and long lab tests!
