Hell's Diner: 13 Devilish Delectables

Rate this book
Feast on some bite-sized horror…

Welcome to Hell’s Diner, where you will gorge on 13 devilish delectables. From appetizers to entrees to desserts, you will find yourself bloodthirsty for more! In “Derailed,” a haunted soul returns to the despondent town of Cedar Lake—one hundred years in the past. In “Hello Stranger,” hot coffee burns foreshadow a woman’s fiery day to come. “Find Me” plays with the laws of time and space as an amnesiac awakens in the woods, bloody and beaten…and searching for answers. In “Old Friends,” a man shows that cats aren’t the only creatures who have nine lives. And a writer is forced to “Enjoy the Ride” when he’s at the mercy of his car…and a dead radio DJ who wants him to remember what he’s done.

Featuring nine previously unpublished pieces, this mouth-watering collection of stories by Eric Woods and Kerri Jane will have you begging for just one more bite…

This Diner has a menu that will leave you coming back for more. If you ignore the bloody hand prints on the menu you’ll find a variety of meal choices that will satiate whatever you’re hungry for. Love the concept of setting it up in relation to a menu type feel. Woods and Jane are definitely cooking some impressive stories whether you’re on an entrée or jumping right to dessert there is always a thrill , chill or bloody scream lurking close by.

Hell's Diner will have you spooked with it's delectable menu that will quickly become moreish if you are that way inclined. If you can get past the blood stained hand prints decorating the menu then you will find you are spoiled for choice.

I wasn't sure at first regarding the concept of using two writers but Woods and Jane definitely compliment each other's style and it just works beautifully with narrating these tales.

As per Woods usual style there are plenty of thrilling and chilling encounters to be expected. Great entertainment folks!
