About Pamela Morris
Raised in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York, but forever longing for the white sands of her birthplace in New Mexico, Pamela has always loved mysteries and the macabre. Combining the two in her own writing, along with her love for historical research and genealogy, came naturally. Hours spent watching 'Monster Movie Matinee', 'Twilight Zone', ‘Kolchak: The Night Stalker”, and a myriad of Hammer Films helps with her Horror obsession. She loves to read works by traditional 19th century Gothic Horror writers such as Poe, Stoker, Radcliffe, and Collins. Her modern Horror author favorites include Tanith Lee, Stephen King, Hunter Shea, and Shirley Jackson.
In late 2020, Pamela began writing and illustrating Children's books. Her first was a revised edition of a story she wrote when she was nine years old, "Bill, The Worm Who Ran Away". This was followed by "Bill the Worm Meets Carl Crow", "Bill, The Worm Who Loved Halloween", and "Bill The Worm Gets A Pet" all released in 2021.
Outside of her writing work, Pamela enjoys watching bad B-Movies, remaining ever vigilant to the possibility of encountering a UFO or Bigfoot, taking road trips with her husband, getting the occasional tattoo, and feeding the local murder of crows in her back yard. Otherwise, she’s perfectly normal.

Blog postGoing on a vacation as an adult is a lot different than going on one as a kid. My family went on a lot of them. Florida, mostly, but also Niagara Falls. My first time on an airplane was to visit my grandfather in Illinois and the infamous lakeside guest house that became surrounded by hundreds, if not thousands, of frogs each and every night. One of my most memorable summer vacations, however, had nothing to do with staying in hotels or enjoying amusement parks, but it did involve going to on1 month ago Read more

Blog postIn 1979 a new board game would enter my life compliments of my maternal grandmother, who not only bought me the game but taught me how to play it. It would open a whole new world and start me down a path I was already beginning to have a keen interest in. It’s a game that most would argue, myself included, isn’t a game at all and it’s not something you play in the normal way.

Blog postNo, I haven’t taken up gambling or blowing all my hard-earned money on lottery tickets. But I have been seeing a lot of number sequences. 222, 333, 555. I keep seeing these kinds of numbers, mostly on digital clocks, and not just now and then. Over the past three or four months, since around October 2021, this has been happening on a daily basis, several times a day. Being the kind of person I am, I wondered, “What does it mean?”

Blog postWhen last we met (back in July – six months ago), I was babbling about My UFO Encounter that happened over thirty years ago! Why, oh, why can’t I hunker down and get out a monthly blog post? Maybe because I’ve never been a good one at ‘on-demand’ writing.

Blog postI’ve believed in a lot of very different things in my lifetime. Some I still believe in, others, not so much. Some of these beliefs would be considered pretty normal, like, you know, believing in God and angels, astrology (that’s normal right?), that the earth is round like a ball, that gravity works, the evolution of animals – including us humans. Other things could be described as weird by your run of the mill ‘man in the street’, New-age things, crystals, ghosts, Ouija boards and Tarot car10 months ago Read more

Blog postI’ve not posted about my Horror WIP (Work-In-Progress) in quite some time, mainly because nothing has been happening – in fact, just the opposite. Let’s start with the premise of what will be Barnesville Chronicle book #5 (I hope). With it, I will be returning to the Murder-Mystery\Horror blend which in and of itself takes […]

Blog postAs the time draws near for another chapter of my life to begin, I’ve been doing a lot of sorting through my things. When you’ve lived in the same place and raised two kids in a house the size of mine since 1995, you accumulate a lot of stuff. A lot! When my then-husband and our two kids moved in, we were coming from a single-wide trailer. The rooms in the new house literally echoed with emptiness. Four big bedrooms, a huge living room, dining room, den, kitchen, and bathroom, plus an addition11 months ago Read more

Blog postAs I begin to write this, the rising sun is shining directly in my eyes, but I refuse to cross the room and move the drapes slightly to the left. Why? Because I live in the Northeast United States and haven’t seen much sunshine since November. It seems a sacrilege to close the drapes and block out what I miss so much. It’s March now and I can hear birds chirping this morning instead of cold winds whipping around the corner of the house making the evergreen shrub thrash against the old clapboa1 year ago Read more

Blog postA very wise man stated over 60 years ago, “As you press on for justice, be sure to move with dignity and discipline, using only the weapon of love. Let no man pull you so low as to hate him. Always avoid violence. If you succumb to the temptation of using violence in your struggle, unborn generations will be the recipients of a long and desolate night of bitterness, and your chief legacy to the future will be an endless reign of meaningless chaos.”

Blog postYou can’t imagine the shame I felt when I realized I’d not posted a Crow Report since December of 2019! I knew that needed to be fixed as quickly as possible. You can read my last report HERE. The Crow Report : Part 6.
As with so many other things, I’m going to blame my lack of a report on the arrival of Covid-19 in the months that fell on the heels of my last writing. I’m also going to blame (happily) Covid-19 for the progress that’s been made with my lovely black beauties!

Titles By Pamela Morris
Someone has killed one of the village’s funeral directors. Suspects come and go, and one even confesses, but what was done to the body would have been impossible for them to have done alone. Maybe they had help? Was it the victim’s wife and son? Perhaps the owners of the competing funeral business?
Or is something far more sinister going on? Has an other-wordly creature been unleashed to kill and can it be stopped before it kills again? Lurking Darkness, Murder, and Magic … that’s what shadows are made of.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." This phrase has origins dating back to ancient Greece, circa 300 BC; proving that some humans have always had the ability to see beauty where others could not.
Beautiful Tragedies is a compilation of 140 works by no less than fifty-five amazing poets writing in a variety of forms--all inspired by feelings born in the darkest of times.
They express the pain associated with unrequited or all-consuming love gone wrong, as well as where the resulting emotions can take us. Readers will get in touch with the darkness lurking inside all of us—the ugly part of us—where we can consider the unthinkable, stemming from the madness gripping our minds.
Despite all their efforts, the curse lives on and their darkening nightmare is not nearly over. But even in the midst of their grief, they continue to search for salvation, a search that takes them not only to their local parish priest, but deeper into the world of witchcraft.
Meanwhile, the budding teenage witch who tried to help them before, finds herself being watched by an increasing number of crows and begins to suspect the murder is acting as the eyes and ears for the evil hag’s spreading curse. She too must act and find a way to save not only herself, but her family and friends from further bloodshed before all of them meet a murderous fate.
After an unusual visit from an elderly woman looking to borrow sugar, the theft of his coloring book, and complaints about other kids bothering him in the middle of the night, six-year-old Brandon Evenson, who lives within sight of the house on Dark Hollow Road, goes missing.
Desperate, Brandon’s parents seek answers from Lee Yagar, a local who’s warned people time and again of the dangers lurking at the old Brown place. But, Lee’s suggestion that Mary is involved in Brandon’s abduction makes little sense. Mary is presumed dead, as she’s not been seen in decades, but is she? And is the house truly as empty and abandoned as it appears to be?
When 12-year-old tomboy Tara Fielding reports she spotted the witch of their local urban legend at the county dump and is now subject to the crone’s deadly curse, she and her friends decide to find out once and for all if any of it’s true by spending the night in the area the specter is said to haunt, The Witch’s Backbone.
What the group witness that hot summer night does little to put their minds at ease. Soon they’re scrambling for any form of protection they can get, settling on the help of a teenage witch in the neighboring town. But can the simple skills of such a novice defeat a centuries-old curse and stop it from killing again?
Detective Simon Michaels and his young assistant, Angela Jennings have different opinions on the cause of death. Michaels rules it accidental, but Angie, a native of Barnesville, quickly suspects murder. However, the more Angie digs, the more tight-lipped the people she knows best become, including the town’s historian and librarian, Nell Miller, and Angie’s own parents.
What Angie discovers on her quest for justice takes her down a dark and gruesome path into the history of her hometown, a history laced with blood, witchcraft, and cloaked in the Secrets of the Scarecrow Moon.
