Twas the fright before Christmas,
And all through the town,
Not a soul stirred,
No one dared make a sound…

Welcome to Deathlehem, where…
… Krampus, not Santa, brings the holiday cheer…
… the lights on the tree, so festive and bright, skitter and crawl and possess a lethal bite…
… malicious little elves, not a jolly one, know if you’ve been naughty—or nice…
and
… family gatherings often turn deadly.
So enter… if you dare.

A collection of 23 holiday horrors benefiting the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.

indiana Horror 2011 Dec 2, 2015

by James Ward Kirk

$2.99

Total Worship by Allen Griffin: The Gods seek redemption through my hallowed worship. Too long have their images been defiled by man. Humanity seeks to sanitize the divine, trying to mould the Gods in the image of goodness and in the process denying their wholeness. The clarity of my vision will not bring about the amusement park heaven the masses dream of so desperately. The only lie ever existing is peace. The corpse lies on the table before me, the left eye scooped out and the socket filled with caviar. I am forcing the deceased’s wife to suck out the fish eggs with her mouth. She retches violently over and over again, the vomit pooling underneath the severed lion’s paw covering the cadaver’s right eye. There is no peace, only totality. The universe will reward my understanding.

Indiana Crime Review 2013 Nov 24, 2015

by James Ward Kirk, Murphy Edwards, John D. Stanton

$2.99

On that fateful gloomy night when, while walking my pet Golem, Murphy Edwards screeched to a halt next to me in his black '65 Lincoln and asked me to join him in producing an anthology featuring Indiana crime writers there was no way I could say "no." I'm still not sure if he intended for me to see the butt of the Glock hanging from a holster inside his dark leather jacket, but I bet he knows the Glock doesn't come with a safety. I met Murph through my Indiana Horror anthology. Yes, there is horror in crime. Just pick up a newspaper. And Murph is an expert writer of crime fiction. He knows crime fiction like Marlowe knows legs. And Murph allowed me to insert horror into crime stories for the anthology (he may have noticed the sliver stake in my shoulder holster). As a result, for example, read Paula D. Ashe's story, or R.k.Kombrinck' s take on trailer trash": horror is everywhere. Indiana Crime will take you for a ride into the dark side of crime. You'll not find hairy monsters like in that lame ass TV show about fairy tales. Indiana Crime will tell you about human monsters. Experience tells me human monsters are the worst of all. Just take a walk with Engelbert. Or fight crime with Thank you Murphy Edwards for stopping me on that starless night and inviting me (ordering me?) into your car. It's been a wild ride. And fun as hell.

by James Ward Kirk, Stephen Cooney

( 2 )

$2.99

Cellar Door... Linguists call it the most beautiful phrase in the English language based solely on the way it sounds. But as you can imagine, what it represents may be something far more sinister. In a spectacular display of poetry, artwork, fiction, and photography, the talent of fifty contributors is showcased within these pages. Voices from behind cellar doors all over the world come together in unison to whisper in your ear...can you hear them? Are they knocking on your cellar door? Edited by James Ward Kirk, each piece in this anthology has a beautiful title intrinsically connected to the tale that follows, and a door will be the common theme which connects the widely varied styles, genres, and stories told. Will you take your chances and find what's lurking behind your cellar door? This second volume of tales continues the tradition: Words of Beauty, Tales of Terror.
