Haunts and Other Horrors A Collection of Five Stories

A collection of five stories.

A Haunting Memory: Eddy returns to his childhood home when his mother passes away and is haunted by the painful memories of his younger brother's death. Is the haunting all in Eddy's mind or is something supernatural at play?

A Life of Luck: Kevin credits all his success and joy in life to simple yet abundant luck. When Kevin breaks a mirror, his greatest fear becomes a reality. Plagued by a run of bad luck, will Kevin's superstitious nature drive him to madness?

Common Interests: George and Margaret despise each other. After thirty years of marriage, they simply can't take it anymore. In this humorous story, each plans to murder the other until their plans unexpectedly go awry.

Watching While You Sleep: Steve Wilkes and his daughter Lori live together in a mansion far too big and empty since Steve's wife, Myka, passed away. When a series of strange occurrences begin, they find themselves hosting an uninvited (and definitely unwanted) guest. Is there an intruder hiding in their home, messing with their minds at every turn? How can Steve search a house so large with so many places to hide? The search for truth grows more complicated when evidence leads Steve to believe Myka's ghost could be the culprit. Can Steve solve the mystery or will evil forces drive him from his home?

Dreamland Superhero: John Smith is an ordinary man with an ordinary name consumed by a desire to be extraordinary. Every night, John transforms into radio talk show sensation, J.M. Courage, the most beloved celebrity in town. Women, men, children, and pets of all ages swoon everywhere he goes. Being J.M. Courage is the good life. Being superhero savior, Captain Courageous, is even better. When the villainous Dark Heart strikes each night, threatening to turn each dream into nightmare, J.M. Courage swaps his trendsetting attire for a mask and tights to save Courage County from certain doom.

When the dream ends, John awakens to a lackluster, rather miserable existence, wishing nothing more than to stay in the dream forever. When John finds a way to make his wish come true, will it be his greatest dream or most horrifying nightmare?
