HUMAN TENDERLOIN: A Collection of Horror Stories – by Craig Wallwork

I Love Every Story In This Collection—And The Writing—Perfection!

I just purchased a hardback copy!

‘Human Tenderloin is a collection of horror stories with heart. Some will goose the skin. Others will leave you bloated with terror. But each one will stay with you.’

Some of my thoughts after reading:

‘Bird Girl’ – My Heart!

‘Dollhouse’ – Creepy Good! I Love Wallwork’s Writing…

‘All things can be explained, she reminded herself. Darcy lowered herself out of bed and tiptoed out of her room. Shadows huddled for warmth in every corner she saw, floorboards moaned and grumbled under her step.’

And…

‘A cool breeze roamed and presented itself as she neared the attic, goosing her skin and forcing her to cradle her body. Crude steps made from wood ascended to a blanket of darkness beyond its staircase. Darcy approached slowly, and peering up toward that darkness, called out an amiable salutation. Only the wind replied, its breath hurried like that of a person running from danger.’

‘Suffer the Rains’

‘Farewell Valencia’ – Love This One!

‘The Hole’ – Creepy Good!

‘Human Tenderloin’ – Love This One!

‘Time's Flies’ – My Heart!

‘Murder Song’

‘Mother's Day’ – Love This One!

‘Night Holds a Scythe’ – My Heart!

‘Nothing Short of Dying’ – Love This One!

‘Paradise Won’ – The Ending—My Heart!

‘Everybody Hurts’

‘Rosemary and Time’

‘They Were Born Without Faces’ – Creepy Good!

‘The Ballad of Windsong House’ - Love The Writing…

‘She heard her breath marry with the wind, her heart a bony finger poking her chest from within.’

And…

‘The other people waiting for her were, in contrast, more level-headed with an unwillingness to allow conjecture, or the yawns of a floorboard, to court their sanity.’

One More… My Heart!

‘The debt assigned to a parent, of which there are many, is to ensure their child's sadness is fleeting, that their pain is shared and troubles unburdened promptly and without wound.’

Highly Recommend!

Thank you, Sadie Hartmann and Underbelly Books, for providing me with an eBook of HUMAN TENDERLOIN at the request of an honest review.
