Scary Story to Read for Halloween

It's that time of year again. The time when things that go bump in the night become even more frightening. The time when you want to curl up in front of the fireplace, under a cozy throw, sip a hot cup of chocolate (or something stronger), and read a story that will stand your hair on end. So, how about trying my book, The Dark Woods Trilogy: Three Tales of Terror? Here's a little blurb:  

Something monstrous lurks in the woods behind the bucolic farm in the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains of North Georgia. No one knows what it is, but it thirsts for blood, and each time the farm changes ownership, tragedy invariably ensues. A local hunter is mauled beyond recognition. A young wife slowly descends into madness. A trained athlete goes for an evening run and never returns home. Then, bestselling horror novelist Ray Winston and his family move onto the farm, and as autumn descends in all its splendor and Ray searches in vain for creative inspiration, the creature once again rises from the shadows. 

And the great thing is that if you visit Amazon Books, it's only $3.99 on Kindle (you can also download and read it on any other electronic device, including your Smartphone) and $12.99 in hard-copy. What a deal!

Must-Read Novel for Halloween: Chills Galore


If you're looking for a good horror story for Halloween, then look no further. The Dark Woods Trilogy: Three Tales of Terror will have you turning on all the lights, locking the doors and windows, and checking--then rechecking--under the bed before you go to sleep at night--assuming you'll be able to sleep, which is doubtful. 

Amazon Books
Available at Amazon Books in both hardcopy and in Kindle, or for download to other devices, The Dark Woods Trilogy is a must-read not only for Halloween but anytime you are in the mood for a good old-fashioned horror/thriller.

Synopsis


There’s something terrible in the woods behind the farm on Shady Hollow Road. No one knows what it is, but each time the farm changes ownership, tragedy invariably ensures, and it’s always in the autumn. A local hunter is mauled beyond recognition. A young wife descends into madness. A trained athlete goes for an evening run and never makes it home. Now bestselling horror novelist Ray Winston and his family have moved into the bucolic setting, and autumn is once again descending in the mountains of North Georgia.

Sheriff Randal Hayes, with the help of big-game hunter Byron Wilkes, is determined to find—and kill—the thing in the woods before it can destroy Ray and his family. Not that Ray is any help. Ray has a drug problem. What's real? What isn't? Ray doesn't know. All Ray knows is that he is the "Master of Fright" and has a reputation to uphold. He also has a looming deadline. But Ray has writer's block and needs inspiration. And that’s what he hopes to find in the scenic North Georgia mountains—inspiration. Only Ray is about to get far more than inspiration. He’s about to come face to face with his worst nightmare.  .

The Dark Woods Trilogy: Three Tales of Terror includes The Dark Woods (a novella), “The Runner” (a long story), and Master of Fright: Return to the Dark Woods (a novella). While each work is available separately, and can be enjoyed as a stand-alone tale, together they comprise a series that tells the "complete" story of the horrifying events that transpire on the farm on Shady Hollow Road.

Note: 
I realize that this is self-promotion, quite blatant self-promotion at that; however, I cannot afford a publicist, so I must publicize my own work; otherwise, it would go undiscovered and, thus, unread.
