To Each Their Darkness
2010 Stoker Award Winner for Superior Achievement in Nonfiction Explore the world of writing horror from a Bram Stoker and International Horror Guild award-winning author's point of view. Gary Braunbeck uses film, fiction, and life experience to elucidate the finer points of storytelling, both in and out of genre. This part-autobiographical, always analytical book looks at how stories develop and what makes them work--or not work--when they're told. Be warned: reality is as brutal as fiction. Rob Zombie, police shootings, William Goldman, and human misery are all teachers to the horror neophyte, and Braunbeck uses their lessons to make To Each Their Darkness a whirlwind of horror and hope for the aspiring writer.
Mr. Hands
It's a quiet night at The Hangman's Tavern just outside Cedar Hill, Ohio -- that is until a disheveled stranger shows up and begins to tell the patrons a story, one that begins: "His full name was Ronald James Williamson, and he killed his first child when he was still a child himself ..." The stranger's tale includes a little girl named Sarah Thompson, her mother Lucy, and how a tragedy would, in a way, bring all three of them together and result in the birth of a creature of myth, a Golem of vengeance, called Mr. Hands. Here for the first time is the author's preferred text of the third novel in the Cedar Hill Series, including new and expanded scenes. Also included is Braunbeck's International Horror Guild Award-winning novella, Kiss of the Mudman.
In Silent Graves
One moment, Robert Londrigan is a rising-star newscaster, devoted husband, and expectant father; the next, he's a widower in a morgue, staring at gaping holes in his daughter's body where surgeons have harvested every useful scrap of her organs and tissue. The rock-bottom falls out from under his life when a disfigured man knocks Robert out and steals what's left of her tiny corpse out from under his nose, and leaves a gruesome surprise waiting for him back home. Robert's search for the disfigured man leads him through a rapidly-fragmenting reality into a chiaroscuro world and the discovery that neither his wife nor his daughter are who he thought they were. Gary A. Braunbeck's work has earned, 7 Bram Stoker Awards, an International Horror Guild Award, 3 Shocker Awards, a Black Quill Award, and a World Fantasy Award nomination.
Keepers
Everything changed for Gil Stewart on the day he saw the old man die. Gil had witnessed the bizarre accident on the highway and stopped to help. The old man couldn’t be saved, but just before he died he clutched Gil’s shirt and whispered a warning: “The Keepers are coming!” That was when Gil’s nightmare began. At first he thought it was merely odd, a series of weird coincidences. Household pets started acting strangely. Zoo animals escaped. But now he can see a pattern emerging, a chilling reminder from a past that he can’t—or won’t—remember. As the true horror becomes clear, and terror builds upon terror, Gil can only await the coming of...the Keepers.
In Silent Graves
A TV newscaster descends into a disturbing nightmare world after losing his wife and baby during childbirth.

At Lucy’s command he will do whatever she tells him—even kill. This is Lucy’s chance to see justice is done. She decides who will live and who will suffer a horrible death, and Mr. Hands carries out the sentences without mercy. But once Mr. Hands is unleashed, will anyone be able to stop him?

He Is Legend
“An impressive collection” of original short stories by Stephen King, Joe Hill, Nancy A. Collins and others—honoring the renowned author of I Am Legend (Locus). Richard Matheson has inspired a generation of storytellers with his ingeniously weird yet frighteningly realistic tales. Now an outstanding cast of top writers pays tribute to his legacy with an all-new collection of stories set in Matheson’s own fictional universes, including sequels, prequels, and companion stories to I Am Legend, Hell House, The Incredible Shrinking Man, Somewhere in Time, “Duel,” and “Button, Button.” Among the highlights of this one-of-a-kind anthology is the first ever collaboration between Stephen King and his son, bestselling horror writer Joe Hill. Other notable contributors include Nancy A. Collins, Joe R. Lansdale, William F. Nolan, Whitley Strieber, F. Paul Wilson, and Matheson’s son, Richard Christian Matheson. Previously published as a limited edition by Gauntlet Press in 2009, He Is Legend is now available to Matheson’s many fans, as well as all lovers of gripping horror and suspense.
The Blackness Within
It won't happen naturally, but has any god ever been conceived in a natural way? Moccus, the Real God, will come into our world as all gods should: reborn through science. No part of the planet will be outside His influence, immune to His powers. The future might not be easy, but it will be better. Perhaps not for mankind, but Moccus' thoughts are with the planet as a whole. Often harsh, never forgiving, He preaches His agenda: Earth's fertility at all costs. Comprised of thirteen loosely linked stories, THE BLACKNESS WITHIN is a horror anthology that unfolds the story of Moccus with a coherent, novel-like feel. From Europe to Australasia to the Americas, no part of the world escapes the Real God's influence. Camille Alexa, Steven L. Shrewsbury, and 11 other established and emerging authors contribute their considerable talents to weave together the story of the planet's brutal savoir, coming in 2010 from Apex Publishing.
The Monster's Corner
In most stories we get the perspective of the hero, the ordinary, the everyman, but we are all the hero of our own tale, and so it must be true for legions of monsters, from Lucifer to Mordred, from child-thieving fairies to Frankenstein's monster and the Wicked Witch of the West. From our point of view, they may very well be horrible, terrifying monstrosities, but of course they won't see themselves in the same light, and their point of view is what concerns us in these tales. Demons and goblins, dark gods and aliens, creatures of myth and legend, lurkers in darkness and beasts in human clothing . . . these are the subjects of THE MONSTER'S CORNER.
