Strange Horror

Equal parts riveting and stirring, Carter takes a staple of campfires and rainy nights - the ghost story - into surprising new territory in this collection. No gore or gratuitous splatter here - these tales are meant to raise the hairs on the back of the neck and leave the reader feeling quietly discomfited hours after reading. These five tales have all the makings of good ghost stories with a touch of strange thrown in for good measure.

Paranormal researcher Allen T. Grey is drawn back into the investigation of the disappearance of John Runyon and encounters government conspiracies, strange unseen forces, and cosmic evil.

Los relatos de Extraños testimonios provienen de una dimensión donde la realidad parece moldeada con la misma sustancia de la que están hechos los sueños. Moviéndose por regiones inciertas, el presente audio libro ejemplifica una de las facetas estilísticas de Daína Chaviano que ella denomina "gótico caribeño." Sus propuestas formales son tan diversas como sus contenidos, trazados con una prosa sutil y feroz a la vez.

First published in 1886, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, is a psychological fable for our time.

William Wymark Jacobs (1863-1943) was an English author of short stories and novels. His most popular works in the early part of the last century were his humorous tales set around the docks of Wapping and in the taproom of the infamous Cauliflower tavern. 'The Rival Beauties' is one of the night watchman's most unlikely tales. He narrates the time when his ship came across a giant sea-serpent and they attempted to lure it with them to New York.
