  Twenty-nine-year-old teacher Emily needs her father to believe her life is a success. He may have walked out on the family when she was a child and let her down when she needed him most, but her life is perfect despite him. 
   
  Or it was until last Friday, when her fiancé dumped her. Now she’s facing a frighteningly empty future, and she’s unravelling at work. And just when she thought things couldn’t get worse, her father turns up on her doorstep. 
   
  Ed knows he’s got it wrong, and he wants to make amends, even if his motives aren’t entirely selfless. What better way to do that than to show Emily how much he cares about her wedding? He’ll even shell out for the dress if that’s what it takes. 
   
  Emily can’t bear to tell her father that her life has fallen apart. So she doesn’t. Before she knows it, they’re planning – and booking – a wedding that’s totally perfect. 
   
  Except for one small fact…

  I am the hoodoo… I am the Coffin Man… the stranger with no memory and no real name as he thought to himself as he sat on his horse in the dark on top of a ridge overlooking a small ranch house below. He was realizing now how fatigued and hungry he was. He had camped for two nights with no fire and no food. All the stale coffee and jerky he had found in the saddlebag was gone. He had come across an old apple tree yesterday and ate his fill, but that was yesterday. 
  Now he had nothing.

  There are horror stories and there are histories. Horrors are invented histories, the truth. Most of the time.Sometimes however, the line between these two genres blurs, what should be history becomes a horror story and what should be fictional horror, steps menacingly into our history.In the Northern English seaside town of Blackpool there is an amusement park called the Pleasure Beach. For almost a century, children have enjoyed the rides and entertainment in this fun filled place and yet, for almost as long, they have run at full speed past the curious figure of the Laughing Man. A dummy, seated in a glass display case that allows awful cackle to ring across the park. He is a well known part of the area's history and also one of its horrors.Unlike with other horror stories, this one comes with evidence. Photos, videos, eye witness accounts. This is no longer fiction.

  The Unindexed Mind A Masochist's...

  Tory Handcock

  The Unindexed Mind: A Masochist's Reflection isn't a self-help book, a memoir, or a manifesto—it's a philosophical junk drawer spilled across the floor. In it, Tory Handcock questions everything from belief systems and artificial meaning to morality, chaos, authority, and the illusion of progress. The voice is raw, self-aware, often sarcastic, and deeply introspective. 
  Part poetic rant, part philosophical street fight, this book isn't here to sell clarity. It's here to wrestle with it, mock it, and maybe find a strange kind of peace in the mess. From pondering why chaos came before all things to building metaphysical Lego castles out of existential puke, the writing embraces contradiction, humor, and brutal honesty. 
  If you've ever stared into the void and laughed—or wanted to—this is your invitation to join in. Just don't expect straight lines. That's not how this mind works.
