Publisher's Synopsis
Friedrich Nietzsche's prescient warning about gazing long into the abyss speaks to the very nature of the human condition. Whether we care to admit it or not, it's instinctual to peer into the darkness from time to time-to question our mortality and the fabric of our world.Stories are windows. Some open upon scenes of purity and goodness-on love and light. Others...well, others promise much darker environments, and horrific glimpses into the uncanny. What voracious creature lurks in the waters beneath the Golden Gate Bridge? What dreadful apparitions revisit the Florida jungle, when the golden moon is high and the autumn grows ripe? What rough beast stares out from ancient walls, and deep into the souls of man?In the Walls and Other Storie offers eleven explorations of uncanny imagination and spine-tingling dread. There are frightful things, dear readers, and unspeakable visions.Go ahead! Take a look. Take a good, long look into the darkness...From the author of Cold on the Mountain and The Reset comes In the Walls and Other Stories, a collection of eerie short stories sure to chill the heart and quicken the pulse.
