Vin was always getting Mike in trouble and today he wants to take his uncles 1970 Chevelle for a JOYRIDE.

Maybe he should have paid more attention to the key ring with the devil smiling its evil grin.

They were flying by the seat of their youth and loving every minute of it.

Oh, the sweet taste of youth. Do you remember those times? When we all thought we would live forever?

Anthony Renfro is a horror writer so I know this won’t be any JOYRIDE they could have ever anticipated.

Anthony does a wonderful job of packing so much horror into a little package, I keep wanting more.

After reading this, you may think twice next time you get into your car and turn the key.

I received Joyride by Anthony Renfro in return for an honest and unbiased review.

Vin’s always wanted to drive the mint condition Chevy Chevelle, so when his friend Mike suggests they take his uncles car out for a joyride he doesn’t hesitate.

Vin shows up at Mike’s uncles house with the beers and Mike produces the house keys. They enter the house and grab the car keys, not noticing a slip of paper that blows off the desk, revealing a strange book with a glowing pentagram on the cover.

Once in the garage they feast their eyes on the mean looking car. Painted black and tricked out with a red racing stripe, the car looks almost evil.

They hop in and quietly ease the car out of the garage and down the road. Nobody notices them. Too bad for Vin and Mike.

I had an idea the car was supernatural when the book with the pentagram was revealed. I couldn’t wait to see what it would do.

It took control and those boys had a joyride like no other.

I couldn’t help but think of Stephen King’s movie, Christine. That was one evil car and I thought this tale would follow along that story line. The plot was different but the chills it gave me were the same.

Buckle up because there is a bonus short story, Sandy and the Stranger, included with Joyride.

As Sandy and his Chevy Nova once again prove he can’t be beat, a stranger challenges him to one more race.

I wonder if you’ll recognize the stranger?

It’s a haunted drag race on an abandoned road.

When the smoke from their burning rubber dissipates, the victor appears.

Or so it seems.

Both of these are quite short. Didn’t take me long to read them.

Muscle cars, evil, and ghosts make both tales scary good.

I received this book for my honest review.
