Christmas Nightmare's Eve: Dark Tales for the Depths of Winter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781949971415)

Continuing in the tradition of the critically lauded Nightmare's Eve, Stephen H. Provost and Sharon Marie Provost present a collection of chilling and thought-provoking stories perfect for fans of The Twilight Zone and Black Mirror.

What happens to bad little boys at Christmastime? Do ghosts go home for the holidays? What happens when one of Santa's elves comes back from Costa Rica with an infection caused by mysterious bite? How far will a desperate author go to meet a Christmas deadline?

Those are just some of the questions posed in this new volume of twists and terror-perfect for the long and moonless nights of winter, when candlelight fails and fitful dreams turn frightful. Flights of fancy and tales of whimsy are interspersed among the night terrors-a welcome but brief respite from your growing unease. You can feel it now, tugging at the corners of your comforter as you nestle all snug in your bed... Is it only your imagination? Or is it really the bogeyman, waiting for the lights to go out so he can seize you? Or a serial killer stalking you, sizing you up to become his next prized trophy?

There's enough fear and foreboding here to scare the Christmas stockings off even the jolliest old elf. Welcome, dear friends, to Christmas Nightmare's Eve, when time stands still at the witching hour between Krampusnacht and St. Nicholas Day... and leaves you stranded, helpless, between the waking world and oblivion. Accept your fate: There's no escape for you now. Not even a Christmas miracle can save you.
