A stroll into darkness.
An assassin horrifying in his methods.
Twisted little people striving for greatness.
Villains unimaginable.
Hauntings unheard of, seductive in their
exquisite siren calls to the unaware.
Fools with their connivances.
All and more await exposure to the light of your imagination in 20 Little Horrors, this collection of micro-tales collected from the mind of D. S. Knight.
Curious about the machinations of nice guys who have multiple ways to suck the humanity right out of your soul? Wondering how many types of haunts are out there waiting in the dark and not-so-dark places of your world? Considering developing a relationship for your own selfish purposes?
You’ll want to look inside to fully understand the folly of thinking you know what is real. To fully understand the depths of human betrayal and horror. To see the outcome of deception for deception’s sake. To learn the tragedy of ignoring that quiet little voice inside your head.
SPECIAL WOMEN, LOVELY AND BEWITCHING — extraordinary. Not to be crossed nor taken home to meet the folks.
Monsters and demons casually destroying your sanity.
Weirdness creeping into your soul — to stay.
Our beloved Frank and his ilk with their fetching little heart-stopping tales that leave you breathless.
ALL THESE AND MORE await you within this chronicle of D. S. Knight’s thoughts and his black humor.
Death, a benevolent creature, saunters through the landscapes herein, portending little terrors that creep up on you in these microtales.
Mr. Lord, returning in “Mr. Lord Again,” addresses another generation-old evil. “The Bag” and “Career Change” demonstrate how social justice can be quick, loud, and final, making horror a force for positive.
The self-analysis in “Misdirection” makes you question the usefulness of your therapy sessions, while vampirism, freshly explained, presents itself in “Takers” and “Leave Nothing” for your edification.
Wronged innocents correcting their own personal tragedies, lifestyles unimaginable to the average adult, multiple pasts impinging on our present—all are for the amusement of some, the screams of others.
Enjoy.
