These are stories of madness, the love of children, and terror that breaks through the calm of everyday life to reveal the shifting uncertainties that lie below. Reading Congreve's mutant vampire fiction you won't know whether to be terrified or delighted: A father pursues his errant son into the wilds of far north Queensland, chasing more than mere revenge; a vampire child murders her father in a small country town, and Father Luigi Calvino must discover why; a millionaire socialite kidnaps a girl child from the basement of a vampire's suburban home; a father hires a private investigator to find the body of his daughter, Cindy, on Sydney's mean streets, but Cindy is alive and much more than she seems; hack journalist Tony Masters is doublecrossed by his editor and consigned to Hell to interview Satan, endlessly, and there he meets a creature out of the worst nightmares of a Japanese B-grade monster movie producer; and a mother vampire struggles to feed and protect her children in Sydney's western suburbs.

Are we mad?  Brave?  Do we have more money than commonsense? (Which would imply very little of either!)  Well, we do like good horror stories and 1995 was the third boom year in a row for Australian horror, with no sign that the pace will flag.  We've come a long way since the days of bush-legend ghost stories.  With Bonescribes you'll find ghosts, zombies (because we like zombies!) and several stories of sexual horror (because 1995 was a good year for that too).  You'll find the traditional, the street-smart, the quirky, the amusing and the downright horrible.  You'll find the very best horror stories published by Australians in 1995
