I've got a "quiet horror" short story for you and it has just enough dark fantasy to grab your attention and keep it to the last word. What if haunted stars spawned an evil power?

Here's a peek of what you are in for ...

“The horror stood erect, rising to more than the height of a tall man; and it swayed like a great serpent, and its members undulated, bending like a heated wax ... a noseless face above the serrate gleaming of such teeth as might belong to a giant bat.”

FREE at Tuesday's Tale of Terror, The Beast of Averoigne by Clark Ashton Smith. If you like Lovecraftian horror, you'll enjoy Smith's short stories.
