Two thematically dark short stories; Finding Home is paranormal horror, and Killing Tiffany Hudson is post apocalyptic science fiction, each about 5000 words.
Apocalypstick contains two deliciously dark short stories: Finding Home, a creepy supernatural horror, and Killing Tiffany Hudson, a post-apocalyptic tale of two genetically modified people who must decide the fate of humanity.
Finding Home
If you have ever glanced at a stranger in the grocery store, and wondered what their life must be like, and then followed them home to peek at them through their plantation blinds, and then slipped through that unlocked sliding door at night just to look around; if you stood next to their bed to watch over them while they slept, and thought I could live this life, then please seek help. Weirdo.
But on your way to the hospital (or the police station), walk a few steps in the shoes of a troubled man on a quest for a new home and a new life, while he deals with a few disturbing personal issues. Finding Home is a short paranormal horror story that lets you test-drive the lives of strangers in a perfectly legal, non-creepy way.
Killing Tiffany Hudson
Is there any line you wouldn't cross to save the life of a loved one? Is there any price you wouldn't pay? A young man battles with the consequences of his answers to these questions, in this post-apocalyptic short story, where right masquerades as wrong, weakness as strength, and deadly monsters as... camels? Well, sometimes, yes.

Professional Reviews
Gripping!
This is not my usual genre, but I loved both stories. The author hooks you in right away, and keeps you there. Two creepy short stories, that keep you thinking about them long after you read "The End". Extremely well written and entertaining! Brilliant start for a new author!
Not my usual read...
I'm generally one to stay away from scary/creepy, but I came across this and had to give it a try. You just can't stop reading once you start. These short stories are ones that you could very easily imagine as part of a larger story or as a movie. They grip you and keep you engaged.
Next one, please!
Read Apocalypsticks two short stories and loved them both. Re-read "Killing Tiffany Hudson" and loved it even more...picked up things the second time that I didn't remember/missed the first time. One of those action packed stories that you have to re-read. I look forward to more stories from this Author.
After Satan negotiates a pact with God and unleashes his army of demons, a secret sect battles a diabolical prophecy that threatens humanity.
