Here comes the fear. Inspired by a lonely vista - white snow, a still blue lake, a castle on a hill - these authors weave their magic. Is it an ancient castle or a modern hotel? Is the horror dressed in darkness waiting in the dungeons, or dressed as an innocent by the side of the lake? The stories play out across the seasons, across the ages, across the stars ... Includes competition winner, The Loop, by novelist Mark Henderson and an invited contribution from guest editor and award-winning horror author, Matt Adcock. This collection is not for the faint hearted. You have been warned. Contains frightfully fear inducing fables by; Matt Adcock Max Bantleman JC Bateman Stephanie Billen Lorraine Childerstone Jeremy Childerstone Bill Davidson Joe Doliczny Peter Ford Jacci Gooding Caroline Hardwick Tansy Hawksley Mark P. Henderson Valerie Moyses Alan R Paine Kester Robert Park Steven Patchett David Stewart John Tolmie
