Publisher's Synopsis
An artist whose love for his wife has horrific results. A babysitting job gone horribly wrong. A talent agency that promises success no matter what; even if you are the one standing in the way. This chilling collection of modern horror stories is sure to have you peeking warily around corners and walking just a bit faster down dark streets. Full of both creepy events and morbid humor, The Bacchanal stands as a testament to humanity's love of being afraid and of frightening others. Humanity's fear of the unknown and fascination with the supernatural are masterfully depicted in these eleven stories. Though the supernatural elements are the centerpiece of the collection, it is the believable actions of the ordinary humans, both evil and well-meaning, that will send shivers down readers' spines.
