Gallery of Horrors:
Henry always wanted to be a famous artist. He wanted his work in galleries around the world. He wanted to be the next Warhol, but before he could figure out how to do that the world as he knew it came to a screeching halt. Ever wonder what an artist would in a world full of the living dead?

A Day with the Dead:
In this flash fiction tale of terror we witness Jennifer's dedication to her family…even if they're already dead.

Kings of the Castle:
Keith, Connor, and Kayla must band together to survive a world overrun by monsters. The only adults they see are the dead ones outside trying to eat them, until one day a stranger comes looking for a safe haven. The kids let him in, but will they be able to get out? And if so, will they be as one of the living, or the living dead?

The Stranger:
In The Stranger, Danni seemingly finds safety in an apartment building overrun by the living dead. It's a claustrophobic examination of a young woman's struggle to accept the world around her and hopefully find a place in it.

The Last Broadcast:
A radio station continues to stay on the air while the world around them falls to ruin. The Last Broadcast is an EC Comic's styled tale of morality in which no one is safe.

Tunnel Rats:
Tunnel Rats takes you beneath the busy streets of Titan City where the homeless have a hard enough time surviving without the dead returning to life. Follow Bark through this action packed fight for survival through the dark tunnels of Titan City's underbelly.

Hell Comes for the Hurried:
Set many years after the zombie apocalypse, Hell Comes for the Hurried follows a group of weary survivors in their trek north through a wasteland of ruined cities and quickly takes a turn for the worse. Some things are worse than death; guilt and cowardice chief among them.

As an added bonus there's also sample stories from Horror Stories: A Macabre Collection, and the first three chapters of Stay Dead: A Novel.
