Grave Clouds: & Other Dark Tales

by John Allen

Horror visits a small village on Christmas Eve as a twisted man hunts an old enemy. A dark night of suspense and romance turns sour when a brother crashes the party. Meanwhile a surrounded graveyard sees two lovers say a final goodbye.

This collection of short stories blends horror, humour and fantasy, examining the very best and worst humanity has to offer.

Reviews

[Big Book Theory · Rating 2 out of 5]

I liked reading these three very short stories. The first one (Christmas story) I found a little blasphemous to be honest, but that would only be from my point of view. Maybe it was written with the intention to make me gasp! Who knows? I did not like Grave Clouds as much, although the ending was nice. Three’s a Crowd, was really good. I loved the twist in the end.

Good short stories

Very interesting short stories. I particularly liked the Christmas one. The last story was also a nice take on twins.

Im not sure what this was all about 3 immensely short stories that didnt make much sense, in fact we're quite awful.
