HellBound Books: Anthology of Suburban Nightmares
Welcome to the suburbs!
We’re just a short commute from the hustle and bustle of the big city. We know you’ll just love the peaceful, gated communities where smiling children ride their bikes safely in the street and neighbors invite everyone to their backyard barbecues....
But pay no mind to that shadow you thought you saw running between the well-manicured lawns while a happy husband dines on homemade meatloaf with his lovely young family after a long, hard day at the office. And those screams you heard drowning out the sounds of his middle-aged neighbor washing his beloved red sports car on the weekends?
Ignore them.
After all, you’re completely safe here in the ‘burbs....
HellBound Books brings together 24 phenomenal writers to spin you such disturbing, grisly tales of murder and monsters and all things horror, all slap-bang in the middle of that beautiful, protected suburban life.
Featuring some of the very best independent horror authors writing Adam Carlson, Alayna Frankenberry, Braden Benzinger, Danni Bowen, Adam Carlson, Dave Davis, Carson Demmans, Ryan Dyer, Alayna Frankenberry, Terry Grimwood, Bryan Holm, Jade Jiao, Paul Lonardo, Alexander Marais, Shannon Mills, Shawn Montgomery, Jason Moore, Tilsen Mulalley, Renee Mulhare, HP Newquist, Damon Nomad, Matthew Piskun, Colin Adams-Toomey, and Steve Zisson.

About the author
Xtina Marie
40 books119 followersThe Accidental Poet:
Xtina Marie is an avid horror and fiction genre reader, who became a blogger; who became a published poet; who became an editor; who now is a podcaster and an aspiring novelist—and why not? People love her words. Her first book of poetry: Dark Musings has received outstanding reviews. It is likely she was born to this calling. Writing elaborate twisted tales, to entertain her classmates in middle school, would later lead Xtina to use her poetry writing as a private emotional outlet in adult life—words she was hesitant to share publicly—but the more she shared; the more accolades her writing received. Light Musings is just about ready for publication and her first novel: Desiree is well under way.
