A charity anthology that’s bizarre, nasty and hilarious. What more could you ask for? Much respect to the indie authors who put their time into this for a good cause. Proceeds go to The Point Foundation, supporting the LBGTQIA+ scholarship financing. Happy reading!

This bizarre anthology will have you laughing, making faces, gagging, and asking yourself, "Wtf am I reading?!?"

All of the authors did an amazing job! I loved every story in this book, and now I need to know when the next anthology is coming out because I need more!

If you like weird and disturbing stories, you’re going to want to check Bizzare Splatter Patterns out! Proceeds go to a great cause, The Point Foundation, which provides college scholarships to LGTBQ+ youth.

These stories truly are bizarre - Spunk Genie!? Speaks for itself! One of my favourites was The Weekend Crew by Timothy King, featuring the one and only Jim Groves! I also got a kick out of Oh No! I Got Exploded Baby All Over My Favorite Sweater by Phrique. But overall, all nine stories have come together into one incredible collection! You’ll be cringing, laughing, gagging and questioning your sanity for reading this crazy anthology.

This bizarre charity anthology was a WILD RIDE in the best ways possible. With nine talented authors and nine incredible stories, there’s something for everyone in this collection.

“The Weekend Crew” and “Oh No! I Got Exploded Baby All Over My Favorite Sweater” were two personal favorites!

This collection has gross, creepy, weird, and just down right wtf did I just read packed into one incredible anthology. Definitely give this one a read, you don’t want to miss out AND it’s all for a good cause

This bizarro / splatterpunk charity anthology was a varied and wild ride. I had a great time reading it. Nine completely different stories, pretty much guaruntees there will be a little something for everyone from the supernatural, to the truly bizarre, to the grossly deviant.

The Weekend Crew by Timohy King is a fast pace descent into violence with two podcast hosts whom you just might recognize taking center stage. You may never enjoy banter without second guessing yourself again.

Toxic Three Way by Archer Black was a bizarre trip into a deviant revenge plot featuring demonic lizard sexcapades. Strange and gruesome enough that if you don’t laugh or sit in stunned silence, jaw on the floor, do I even know you?

Lights Are Meant To Sparkle by Z. Martin is a tense, bizarre, early adulthood milestone story. Moving into your first place may have been scary and a bit weird, but I bet your neighbors weren’t this strange.

Oh No! I Got Exploded Baby All Over My Favorite Sweater! by Prhique is as always, amazing. A satirically scathing look at futuristic baby rearing that will have you questioning your sanity as you laugh through multiple baby deaths and THE NAMES. Read it for the names.

A Chaos Of Crabs by Matthew J Gleason is possibly the most off the wall bizarre story in here and it’s a fun ride. Follow one hooker as she modifies her baby for the fighting ring in the hopes of upgrading her borrowed chimpanzee body.

Summer of 1967 by DZ Hollow is a delectably brutal revenge / cannibalistic coming of age story that I just ate right up. Voted Best Exotic Pet Food 1967 by yours truly.

Skinwalk by Gus Decemberist is a villain’s point of view supernatural warning to us all to not assume that gentle lamb or pretty waif is the easy victim. They may be worn by the true monster. A fantastic debut that made me cringe for all the right reasons.

American Puppets by B. Muraca is a horrific and horrifyingly relevant story of just how far people will go, to make you fit their narrative. If you liked The Stepford Wives, this is the one for you.

Spunk Genie by Seamus Belial A genie, three wishes, each more severely misconstrued than the last and a pickle jar. If you want a story so grossly off the wall that you won’t know if it was the gagging or laughter that did you in, this is the one for you.

A very entertaining book full of talented authors you may all recognize. There is a nice blend of extreme horror, hilarious moments, bizarre moments, and the last story will have you saying "what the fuck!" A great job to all the authors involved

When you buy a copy, all proceeds go to The Point Foundation to help the LGBTQIA+ community. Go read some insane stories while knowing your money is going to a good cause. I highly recommend.

You sick deviant puppies.

This is a masterpiece of filth and depravity and I was honoured to read it. Its inventive. Witty. Dark and utterly mischievous.

So many great authors too!

I tore through this anthology and am definitely going to have a book hangover tomorrow.

WELL DONE EVERYONE!

[Jim Groves · Rating 5 out of 5]

A truly disgusting and disturbing collection of tales by some of the best indie authors. You get some splatterpunk, some bizzaro and a ton of fun!

[Shannon Reviews · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was definitely bizarre! Each story was awesome but if I had to pick my favorite it would have to be Lights Are Meant to Sparkle by Z Martin! This one had me wanting more and became one of my favorites. Overall amazing collection and worth checking out!

[D.Z. Hollow · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such a gross, bizarre, strange, and gorefest riddled anthology. Every story is strange and unique. Jim Groves compiled one hell of a charity anthology. I am fired up to be a part of it. A lot of these will make you think and question your sanity and your reality.
