STEP INTO THE WORLD OF THE DARK MAN: PLEASE HAVE YOUR REFERRAL READY…
An abused child encounters the local legendary boogeyman and finds himself querying the definition of ‘monster.’ Two time-travellers observe The Crucifixion, and discover a horror far beyond the brutality of the event itself. An inhuman predator establishes its feeding ground in a small rural town—but does it have competition…?
In this collection, representing the darker work of award-nominated author Chuck McKenzie, you’ll find tales of zombies, kaiju, and alien invaders; of visits to Hell, and to quiet suburban streets; of Lovecraftian entities and spectral terrors. And other, far less pleasant tales than these…
This collection includes five tales variously nominated for the Ditmar, Aurealis, and Australasian Shadows awards, and was nominated for Best Collected Work at the 2024 Australasian Shadows Awards.
Horror, Short Stories, Slenderman, Science Fiction Horror, Aliens, Demons, Ghosts
About The Author
Chuck McKenzie was born in 1970 and still spends most of his time there.
His science fiction and horror short stories have been nominated for multiple genre awards, and he also writes cat-related silliness which has been nominated for absolutely nothing, despite receiving critical acclaim from cats everywhere.
He hopes to one day be remembered as the sort of person neighbours later describe as seeming like such a nice man.
