Listen, you don't have much time. Everything you are about to read is true. In this book you will find 21 stories that the government never wanted you to know. Tales of monsters and conspiracies you would have never thought possible; all now available for your innocent eyeballs to feast upon. But be warned, what you are about to read isn't for the light of heart. Yes, this all really happened, and yes, most of it is quite gruesome. But trust me when I say that reading this book will save your life. Otherwise, how will you know where the antidote is? Also, I should mention that I am a compulsive liar. But that isn't true, either, now is it? Either way, you're stuck now, so try to at least make the best of it as you read this book that I totally wrote by myself.

You know this place. Seems normal enough. But you know better, don’t you? You've heard rumors of strange histories. You've seen hints of dark deeds.  Turns out you can go home again, and the shadows will be waiting for you. Bram Stoker Award® nominated editors Doug Murano and D. Alexander Ward bring you the next installment of their best selling, critically acclaimed small-town Lovecraftian anthology series: Shadows Over Main Street, Volume 2. Within these pages, you'll discover:  * America's pastime awakening dark secrets buried deep within the earth.  * Vietnam War heroes who glimpse something worse than war and return home to discover a new kind of hell waiting for them.  * The music of a generation—of many generations—revealed as something older, hungrier and more insidious than a bad acid trip.  * A war-widow who rediscovers love and passion… only to cultivate the world’s end.  Featuring stories by: Joyce Carol Oates, Joe R. Lansdale, Gary A. Braunbeck, John F.D. Taff, Lucy A. Snyder, William Meikle, Ronald Malfi, Damien Angelica Walters, and others. With a foreword by Laird Barron and stunning illustrations by Luke Spooner.   Every turn you take leads back to Main Street. We've been waiting. Welcome home.

Written Backwards

Beneath the surface, no one can hear you scream. By turns terrifying and hilarious, Dead Bait 4 is an anthology about the fears that dwell beneath the surface — and within the human heart. Lake monsters, lamprey invasions, and humanoid fish from the deep are only some of the strange encounters in this collection of twenty-two stories of aquatic horror. From splatterpunk to horror comedy to literary surrealism, Dead Bait 4 is as wide-ranging as the bodies of water that encompass this planet. When the fish come out, you’d better believe there will be consequences.

Sleep is just a myth created by mattress salesmen. Isaac, a night auditor of a hotel somewhere in the surreal void of Texas, is sick and tired of his guests. When he clocks in at night, he’s hoping for a nice, quiet eight hours of Netflix-bingeing and occasional masturbation. What he doesn’t want to do is fetch anybody extra towels or dive face-first into somebody’s clogged toilet. And he sure as hell doesn’t want to get involved in some trippy owl conspiracy or dispose of any dead bodies. But hey…that’s life in the hotel business. Welcome to The Nightly Disease. Please enjoy your stay.
