    "I wrote a book," said Turpin. 
    "You wrote a book?" said James. 
    "It's selling on Amazon and Audible, and I promote my work on Redbubble and Zazzle," said Turpin. 
    "Why am I being paid by them?" said James 
    "I used your details and name to sign up and as a name. I couldn't sell without real details what would people say if I said I was a ghostwriter!" said Turpin. 
    "You lousy identity thief!" grumbled James "Great I'm being haunted by a computer genius from before computers."

    "A what?" asked James. 
    "Electronic Voice Phenomena or a ghost audio recording! Ghosts can be recorded with a microphone, so I read it." Turpin said. 
    "So you are haunting Audible now, are you?" James said. 
    "And YouTube, iTunes, and Soundcloud, among other things if you put it like that?" said Turpin exasperated.

    They arrive alive. They always leave dead. 
    But first, they give me their confessions. 
    Fans of Stephen King, Joe Hill and like to read books like The Bird Box and The Haunting are going to enjoy reading the deathbed confessions from The Asylum. 
    My name is Jack Steen and for those who arrive on my 'death' ward at the Asylum, I'm the last face many will see before they die. I am the night nurse at the Asylum for the Criminally Insane.  
    Most of my patients are serial killers and mass murderers and they know me as the Angel of Death. 
    When they come onto my floor, I offer a deal: tell me their story, the one that hasn't been read about in the news, sensationalized by media or cataloged in a ridiculous number of academic papers. I want the real story - the one they haven't told anyone. Some of these killers have never confessed to their crimes, some kept certain information to themselves...those are the stories I want. 
    If they give them to me, I'll make their death...easier. They're already dying, that's why they're now my patients. If they play nice, I can make their death less painful. But only if they play nice and tell me their confessions. 
    The majority of these killers are expert manipulators. I realize they could be playing me and messing with my head. It's a chance I'm willing to take. 
    And now...they might just be playing with yours too. 
    Inside this book are 4 DeathBed Confessions: 
    Patient 1024 has an interesting 'appetite'. 
    Patient 974 is the Ken to his Barbie, and he would do anything to keep her happy. 
    Patient 871 is a Nanny, but not one you want watching your kids. 
    Patient 1203 is the sweetest, broken soul you'll ever meet but her confession is a hard read.

    Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz, and includes a fully immersive cinematic music score. 
    "The Cats of Ulthar" is a short story written by American fantasy author H. P. Lovecraft in June 1920. In the tale, an unnamed narrator relates the story of how a law forbidding the killing of cats came to be in a town called Ulthar. As the narrative goes, the city is home to an old couple who enjoy capturing and killing the townspeople's cats. When a caravan of wanderers passes through the city, the kitten of an orphan (Menes) traveling with the band disappears. Upon hearing of the couple's violent acts towards cats, Menes invokes a prayer before leaving town that causes the local felines to swarm the cat-killers' house and devour them. Upon witnessing the result, the local politicians pass a law forbidding the killing of cats. 
    Influenced by Lord Dunsany, the tale was a personal favorite of Lovecraft's and has remained popular since his death. Considered one of the best short stories of Lovecraft's early period, aspects of "The Cats of Ulthar" would be referenced again in the author's works The Other Gods and The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. It was first published in the literary journal Tryout in November 1920 and now resides in the public domain.
