Gruesome Faces, Ghastly Places: a Collection of Horror Stories by South Dakota Authors Doug Murano

A collection of fifteen dark tales, Gruesome Faces Ghastly Places brings together three South Dakota-based horror authors in one exclusive collection. Ride along on a nightmarish road trip to Nowhere in Doug Murano's "Pavement Ends." Witness a bizarre Old West exorcism in Adrian Ludens' "Ghost Soup." And tour a carnival freak show that is more than it seems in C. W. LaSart's "To Each His Own Hell." These tales and a dozen more are sure to thrill any reader of horror and supernatural suspense fiction. "In the very best way, this collection...reminds me of the classic "Hitchcock Presents" paperbacks: The horror here initially seems familiar and then takes twists and turns, zigs, zags, and deadfalls into new and ultra-disturbing places. South Dakota will not likely add this title as a guidebook, but if you like traveling with fear as a companion, you'll want this collection of G and G." -Mort Castle, Bram Stoker Award-winning author and editor. "These three voices, brought together here like a chorus, are part of the cutting edge of modern horror. Go ahead and turn the page. I dare you. But I will warn you. You're gonna get sliced up. And you'll love it while you bleed. They're that good." -Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author
