Book details:

Nightmare’s Eve
by Stephen H. Provost
Publication date: February 22nd 2018
Genres: Horror, Young Adult

Synopsis:

A collection of 16 short stories and 10 dark poems in the tradition of “The Twilight Zone.”

Trapped for eight centuries in a space no larger than a shoebox. What would you do to escape? How far would you go to rid yourself of that parasite in your brain that feeds off the worst of your nightmares? What if the person closest to you were fated to die – and you were powerless to stop it?

What if your savior were also your greatest fear? Would you trade years of your life for a chance at redemption? Would you slay or spare the dragon whose eyes gaze up at you pleadingly in the final moments of its life?

These are the questions that run through the mind when twilight fades and eyelids grow heavy. Fight the onset of sleep. Thrash beneath the covers in futile defiance of what lies beyond. This is the between-time of Nightmare’s Eve, those brief but lingering moments between the waking world and the abyss. It will have you. It’s only a matter of time.

REVIEW: Nightmare’s Eve really appealed to me for the following reasons. First, I really like reading horror stories (as well as writing my own horror stories!) so, to see a collection of them available to read interested me. Next, the variety that was on offer such as the mix of poetry and prose. Since I do prefer to read poetry in collections, it was the poems here in this collection that struck a chord with me. I’m going to save reading the stories for around October time as it does make for quick Halloween fun! All of the plotlines were creative, spooky and spine-tingling. Looking for something quick but very scary? Stop by this one!
