Terror in the Shadows Vol. 12
The icy claws of death lash out from the shadows…
Sinister creatures ruin the holiday cheer at a snow-swept Christmas tree farm. A confrontation with a childhood bully kicks off a bloody killing spree. And a fire-crazed arsonist sets his sights on a local house, only to discover that its strange inhabitants have dark appetites of their own…
Scare Street is proud to present thirteen tales of supernatural horror in one volume, the perfect treat for all insatiable horror fans. From invisible killers to spectral children, a cornucopia of bone-chilling delights lurks in the darkness, just waiting to be unleashed.
As you revel in each terrifying tale, you feel a chill pierce through you. You tell yourself it’s just a cold draft. But the minute you turn the page, your fingers freeze as frost creeps across your skin. You open your mouth to scream but it’s too late… Your lips are frozen and glistening icicles nip your arms.
The chill of the netherworld has trapped you in the shadows.
And there is no escape from its cold, icy grasp…

A Marvelous Day!
I’m just going to say that this book is marvelous! I have been reading this series for a while now and I have grown to love the writers.
Ron Ripley, Sara Clancy, David Longhorn, Bronson Carey, Anna Sinjin and Ian Fortey have all appeared in other books in this series. But this one is the best, so far.
They have been a very successful group of writers in this Scare Street genre. Especially with this issue.
All of the stories are amazing! And there is no bad one in the book. I think the authors put their collective minds together and decided that they would do something great! And that’s what they have done. Something great!
Five stars. 💫💫💫💫💫

The newest collection of eleven short stories from various Scare Street authors, never to be read at night!
"Karen": The female of the species...is far deadlier...
"Caskets": Might seem odd to find love and compassion in a ghost story, but deep amidst the gore, it is present. Oddly heartwarming.
"St. Anne's Episcopal Church": Truly imaginative horror! SO SCARY!
"Song of the Mountain":. Horror so implacable! So otherworldly! I'm afraid to turn out the lights!
"The Zodiac Of Death": well-constructed in its framework, but sad. Nobody really wins.
"Holly Jolly Farm": tremendous terror here! Such implacability! I'll fear Christmas trees for evermore!
"Seed Money": Some people are just fools. Well-meaning, but don't consider consequences. But then, what's the sense in grave-robbing anyway?
"What Lives In the Deep": I adore Marine Horror; it's almost unfailingly implacable. This story is a fine example.
"The Beautiful Ones": If it's too good to be true...Beware the Aliens.
"Hobbyist": An arsonist who burns for pleasure fixates on an old Victorian that is far more than a long-abandoned dusty residence.
"The Bottle": Beware what looks good because inevitably the consequences are drastic.
