About Tim Mendees

Tim Mendees is a horror writer from Macclesfield in the North-West of England that specialises in cosmic horror and weird fiction. A lifelong fan of classic weird tales, Tim set out to bring the pulp horror of yesteryear into the 21st Century and give it a distinctly British flavour. His work has been described as the love-child of H.P. Lovecraft and P.G. Wodehouse and is often peppered with a wry sense of humour that acts as a counterpoint to the unnerving, and often disturbing, narratives.

Tim has had over eighty published short stories and novelettes in anthologies and magazines with publishers all over the world. He also has four novellas out now with more coming soon.

When he is not arguing with the spellchecker, Tim is a goth DJ, crustacean and cephalopod enthusiast, and the presenter of a popular web series of live video readings of his material and interviews with fellow authors. He currently lives in Brighton & Hove with his pet crab, Gerald, and an army of stuffed octopods.

IT CALLS FROM THE SEA is a delightfully creepy collection of horror tales that run the gamut from mildly thrilling to absolutely freaky and everything in between. Some stories were longer than others, but they’re all the perfect length for when you just want something quick, dirty, and spooky. Each tale is delightfully different from the others, but they all have the common thread of water creatures that tie them together.

If you’re a fan of horror, you’re not going to want to miss It Calls From The Sea!!! I can’t pick a favorite story from this anthology. Each was unique and packed a real punch.

Sea creatures from the abyss. Leviathans of rare intelligence. Monsters who will drag you into the deep. The variety in this book is amazing. Each story is well written and some of them are unforgettable and terrifying.

This is the story of a B-movie dynasty as told in three thrilling tales by three thrilling talents.

In "Tentacles Attack!" movie set designer John Fjord is down on his luck and desperate to land a job with a production company in old Hollywood. His fate will be sealed by two chance encounters: one with true love, the other with ultimate evil.

In "Cthulhu Chicks," Kevin and Dale head to a fan convention to meet twin starlets Stacey and Vanessa. Much to the young men's delight, they hit it off with the starlets, who agree to a double date. However, the starry-eyed fans soon discover that truth is stranger than fiction, and far more terrifying.

In "Y'ha-ntlei Rising," friends Drew and Mike sneak onto the set of a new horror movie. Drew is there to catch a glimpse of the stars, while Mike cares only about finding his girlfriend, who was hired as an extra and hasn't returned his calls in days. Both men encounter more than they'd bargained for on this unconventional modern movie set.

$5.99

There exists a mysterious dimension outside the three known to man. It is a dark realm of unspeakable evils that extends from beyond the stars to the infernal regions lying deep within the human, or more fittingly, inhuman heart.

A place where demons dwell, where nightmares tend to be more than just bad dreams, and where anomalous terrors can rise up at any moment from the still, watery depths beneath you.

Compiled and edited by HellBound Books’ very own mistress of the macabre, Gerri R. Gray, this third volume in The Toilet Zone series overflows with 30 hair-raising tales, each one ideal in length for a sit-down read when nature calls. And, for those ‘wee’ visits to the smallest room, there are a handful of shorter stories we affectionately refer to as ‘flush fiction.’

In our dimension, where the signposts are written in blood, you‘ll meet all sorts of intriguing individuals: a nun who makes a habit out of murdering, a magician whose tricks will leave you stumped, and an incarcerated killer who brings an entirely new meaning to the term ‘jailbird’.

You’ll also visit public restrooms that’ll make you want to “hold on to it” until you get home. Watch out for the neck-biters and ankle-biters, and rest assured, there’s an abundance of bugs and slugs and other creepy-crawlers waiting to make you squirm in your seat. And that’s not to mention all the dead things that simply refuse to stay dead.

So, prepare yourself for some restroom reading at its most terrifying!
