A Monster Told Me Bedtime Stories: MONSTERS Volume 7 Aug 1, 2020

by SOTEIRA PRESS, R. C. "Dopabeane" Bowman, Gabriel Grobler

( 17 )

$3.99

When you open the door to a realm of nightmares, sometimes you let the nightmares in.

Bedtime. The twilight of consciousness, the darkness that lies between reality and dreams. Here, on the threshold of slumber, we open the door to myriad dreamscapes, to other worlds and astral planes. A thousand doors to a thousand worlds... and the nightmares that hide within.

Open the door, cross the threshold, and dream the night away. But be careful, and remember:
When you open the door to a realm of nightmares… sometimes you let the nightmares in.

A schoolyard nightmare with a taste for children…
Faceless horrors that prowl the boundary between consciousness and slumber in search of prey…
Houses where dreams and nightmares come to life…
Imaginary friends who bleed into reality…
Old gods who weave webs of nightmares to reveal horrific truths…
A monstrous storyteller who’s just dying to tell a tale about you…

These are just a few of the bedtime stories written by—and for—monsters.

In these pages you’ll find an unforgettable collection of dreams unleashed upon reality and reality transformed into nightmares. Penned by award-winning authors, bestselling writers, and visionary nightmare-smiths, A MONSTER TOLD ME BEDTIME STORIES will remind you what it means to be afraid of the dark.

And monsters into men.

Self-sacrifice, of course...
But what about literal sacrifice?

Would you kill for the right person?
Would you kill again…and again…and again?

What if you could come back from the dead to protect your loved ones?
Or never die in the first place?

Would you cross the ocean? The world?
What about the universe? Or reality itself?

Would you enlist a demon to avenge your brother?
Or seduce a serial killer to save your sister?

Would you live an eternity of lifetimes with your soulmate?
Even if he was a monster?

A family of necromancers determined to preserve their way of life at all costs…
A tragic spirit whose rage burns across centuries…
Parents who go to reality-defying lengths to save their children…
Legendary monsters resurrected to avenge the forgotten…
Guardians of the ancient world who kill to protect their wards…
Jealous lovers who let nothing stand in their way…

Come and meet these monsters, and the things they do for love.
