  Trick or treat, trick or treat! Hungry ghouls crave fresh meat… 
  A recovering addict faces the ultimate test when an old friend puts him through a terrifying ordeal. Two brave souls spend the night in a haunted house, only to emerge forever changed. And a cursed photographer goes to horrific lengths when their vision slowly decays… 
  Scare Street is proud to present a new collection of diabolical delights. Twelve nightmarish tales of terror lurk within this sinister tome. Each one is a treat for shivers and shrieks. And the only tricks you’ll find are the ones your mind plays on you, as you feverishly turn another page… 
  Were those footsteps you heard, creaking across the floorboards? Was that whispering outside the window? Or just the whistling of the wind? 
  The sounds grew closer, louder. A horde of tiny ghouls scamper into your room, saliva dripping from their razor-sharp fangs. And you realize there is only one treat they crave. 
  The sweet taste of human flesh…

  A duke who has imprisoned himself in an attic for nine years is in need of a wife… 
  Evander Meyrick, the Duke of Sutherton, has lived the past thirteen years under a curse. He didn’t know just how bad the curse was until every lady he married died within a year of their wedding day. Now he has a step-daughter, Tabitha, who is ready for her first Season, and he longs to give her something he can’t have for himself: a normal life. 
  A spinster who thought her best years were behind her may find a second chance so long as the curse doesn’t touch her… 
  At thirty-four, Miss Viola Keane is well past her prime. Having gone through three failed Seasons, she had resigned herself to never knowing the joys of marriage and children. Instead, she focused her attention on her family. 
  Shortly after her brother’s death, however, she finds out her family doesn’t have any money. When she learns that the Duke of Sutherton is offering a sizable sum of money to any lady who’s willing to marry him, she jumps at the opportunity to become his wife. 
  The notion of a curse doesn’t scare her. She, after all, doesn’t buy into such superstitious nonsense. But since her new husband and step-daughter are convinced the curse is real, she abides by the strange rules he lays out for her. 
  He wasn’t planning to fall in love again… 
  Evander only intended to spend enough time with Viola to discuss her role as Tabitha’s step-mother. But it’s been a long time since he’s had a meaningful conversation with another person, and something about her reminds him of what his life was like before the curse ruined his life. 
  Dare he take the chance of opening himself up to her and potentially risk losing another wife, or should he keep his distance in order to keep her safe? 
  *This is very loosely based off the Snow White fairy tale.
