This book is guaranteed to induce nightmares and send chills running down your spine!
What happens when heartbreak on a wedding day turns to unspeakable terror, a camping trip is interrupted by a hideous midnight visitor, or when a fun outing to an old, abandoned house becomes serious when revenge reaches from beyond the grave? Author Ed Pessalano answers these questions and more in Night Shivers (73pp., tpb, $7.38), a collection of thirteen stories of suspense and terror. Night Shivers covers a range of territory from a ghost story called “Expected Company” to “The Night Train,” where a late-night train passenger is being stalked by a serial killer. A day at the amusement park turns into a twisted nightmare for a couple in “Terror Park.” In “The Mourning,” you’ll meet a hideous old couple. It seems like just about everyone they meet dies a mysterious death.
Excerpt

Then the man leaned forward and Jason gasped at the hideous contorted face. It was deathly pure white, with sunken eyes streaked with red veins. A living skeleton sat on the padded leather seat. Jason was too terrified to move. The leaning man extended an outstretched arm, inviting Jason aboard. All Jason could manage was to shake his head no from side to side.“Come,” the man said in a slow, haunting voice. “It is time!”
