Sinopsis

Journey into the dark heart of human nature with Moribund Tales. Reminiscent of Victorian Gothic, these nine tales explore the sinister and the strange in the everyday.
 
Last Straw of Humanity is a chilling story of brotherly compassion and things best locked away; confused memories of blood and remorse mingle in Broken Glass; a mysterious voice guides a blind traveler in The Chaperone, and one girl reborn for a sinister purpose seeks her revenge in Infant’s Fingers.
 
Including the acclaimed stories Tears of Repentance and Internal Abduction, Moribund Tales is a raw and visceral collection from the master of horror, Erik Hofstatter.

    The next high concept horror novel from NYT bestselling author Christopher Golden. 
    Across Italy there are many half-empty towns, nearly abandoned by those who migrate to the coast or to cities. The beautiful, crumbling hilltop town of Becchina is among them, but its mayor has taken drastic measures to rebuild―selling abandoned homes to anyone in the world for a single Euro, as long as the buyer promises to live there for at least five years. It’s a no-brainer for American couple Tommy and Kate Puglisi. Both work remotely, and Becchina is the home of Tommy’s grandparents, his closest living relatives. It feels like a romantic adventure, an opportunity the young couple would be crazy not to seize. But from the moment they move in, they both feel a shadow has fallen on them. Tommy’s grandmother is furious, even a little frightened, when she realizes which house they’ve bought. There are rooms in an annex at the back of the house that they didn’t know were there. The place makes strange noises at night, locked doors are suddenly open, and when they go to a family gathering, they’re certain people are whispering about them, and about their house, which one neighbor refers to as The House of Last Resort. Soon, they learn that the home was owned for generations by the Church, but the real secret, and the true dread, is unlocked when they finally learn what the priests were doing in this house for all those long years…and how many people died in the strange chapel inside. While down in the catacombs beneath Becchina…something stirs.

    "I hear you could break out of jail if you wanted to," said the guard."Yes it's easy but where's the fun in that," said Lance smiling impishly."What fun can you have in jail?" asked the Kingpin."Not been here long enough for it to be a bore yet," Lance said who was having fun messing with their minds. 
    "I will not do it!" Lance Alexander to his uncle Sergeant Simon Alexander-Drax. 
    "It's alright! You won't be there long!" said his uncle. 
    "Then you go there!" said Lance shortly. 
    Lance's dad the coroner walked into the room. 
    "I can't!" said Lance digging his boots into the floor. 
    "You can't what?" asked Blake Alexander, Lance's dad. 
    "I can't go to prison as the Necromancer," said Lance. 
    "Why can't you," asked his uncle. 
    "Do you think he's the Necromancer?" asked Blake. 
    "Of course not we need a man we can trust on the inside who can pose as the Necromancer to entrap a prison kingpin," said Simon. 
    "You planning to come out as dead are you?" asked Lance not threatening just stating a fact the father of the Necromancer was Mortimer the grim reaper, King. 
    "I am not going to be around for that," said Blake planning a holiday in hell when Lance came out as the Necromancer a serial killer. 
    "Where are you going?" asked Blake's Uncle. 
    "Never you mind," said Blake. 
    "He's a coward," said Lance. 
    "No would you be in my place I can't be deposed as emperor of the solar system if I'm not there," Blake said. 
    "Didn't think of that," said Simon. 
    "I'll do it," said Lance defiantly thinking how much of a problem it would be to his father.

    "MS. Found in a Bottle" is an 1833 short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe. The plot follows an unnamed narrator at sea who finds himself in a series of harrowing circumstances. As he nears his own disastrous death while his ship drives ever southward, he writes an "MS.", or manuscript, telling of his adventures which he casts into the sea. Some critics believe the story was meant as a satire of typical sea tales.
    Poe submitted "MS. Found in a Bottle" as one of many entries to a writing contest offered by the weekly Baltimore Saturday Visiter. Each of the stories was well liked by the judges but they unanimously chose "MS. Found in a Bottle" as the contest's winner, earning Poe a $50 prize. The story was then published in the October 19, 1833, issue of the Visiter.
