Blood Will Out and Other Strange Tales - Paperback

What lies beyond that narrow bandwidth of "reality"? These stories explore what lies off grid, off piste, and off the rails. Some deal with spectral presences, like the vampire who tires of being a loner, or the incubus in need of comfort and therapy. Others involve more subtle distortions of reality, like the tale of the travelling salesman who discovers a bucolic farm just off Spaghetti Junction, or the shell-shocked officer who finds his stately home invaded. Humour, always a valuable tool in unfettering a strait-laced reality, frequently obtrudes. Praise for these stories: A Vampire in Whitby "really made me laugh, very dry and witty ... I was blown away by the innovative way this unfolded" Winner of Scribble Magazine's Readers' Choice; Strait is the Gate "a marvellous little ghost story, reminiscent of Rod Serling or Richard Matheson" Corner Bar Magazine; Girl in Room 39 "I love your story. It has wonderful atmosphere and great character development" The Horror Zine; A Hint of Complicity "a brilliant piece of writing" Bandit Fiction
