Who wouldn't? Each year at the World Horror Convention, the most anticipated event is the Gross-Out Contest, where authors stand up in front of everyone and deliver some of the most disturbing, gut-wrenching tales anyone has ever heard.
Wrath James White's stories are among the best of them. Now, we present his stories for the first time in print - uncut.
Here are his four stories from previous years, as well as his entry for the 2008 WHC.
But there's more! We have a bonus story that is "one of the most grotesque and horrific murder/rape/revenge stories I have ever written."
Mark McLaughlin provided the cover art in addition to a hilarious introduction.
Wrath James White is a badass motherfucker who writes baddasss books for other badass motherfuckers. He is a J.F. Gonzalez Lifetime Achievement Award winner and a Bram Stoker Award nominee with over two dozen books in print.
Wrath is the author of RABBIT HUNT, THE BUG COLLECTOR, and such extreme horror classics as THE RESURRECTIONIST (now a major motion picture titled "Come Back To Me") SUCCULENT PREY, it's sequel PREY DRIVE, 400 DAYS OF OPPRESSION, and many others.

Няколко мега гнусни кратки разказчета, отличени на хорър конвента в Тексас, които приятелят ми Ванката Величков от Пазарджишкия Клуб "Стругацки" превеждаше, а аз шлифовах текстовете му с гугъл-транслейтския си ингилизки, кхе-кхе. Упражнението, щото не се славим като най-стегнатите и експедитивни хора на света, ни отне около три години. Относно съдържанието - затрогващи истории с некрофилия, черволяци, гнойни язви, телесни секрети и екскрети... абе изобщо, пълни с всичко каквото може да роди една ама наистина болна глава... Радвам се, че най-накрая приключихме, кхе-кхе.

I have NEVER EVER read anything like this in my whole life!!! I laid in bed with a permanent cringe on my face while laughing and gagging.
This just beats ANYTHING I have ever read....I only have one question:
WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU COME UP WITH THIS SHIT???
I LOVED it!! I can only give between 3 and 4 stars because I wanted more and more!! Plus, I think I had nightmares that night of pustules and living forever ....... sorry can't go on or I'll ruin the stories.
This book is Mr. White's entries in the "World Horror Convention - Gross-Out Contest" Every year that he entered, Mr. White continued to come in second - even though the other contestants adapted his style of story telling.
Each story starts out with a kick-ass line then continues with a gross gory story and ends with a punch line that really has you laughing or going "HMMM?"
Morbid Obesity Story about a man who loves to perform felactio on dead fat ladies....there comes a surprise in the middle of eating out....or is that eating in? that has this guy wondering if he should continue.
Panty Pudding This is a story about a man who while was a boy used to watch his father having sex with an overused prostitute. The boy had a fetish for smelling, licking and eating women's panties. Fast forward a few decades and that prostitute is still on the same corner finding tricks while she wobbles with her walker......you can guess how the story continues.
Alive Ohhh...I just have to say this story has to do with an abortion clinic and a crazy fetish a guy has. I go NO FURTHER.
Felching the Worm This is another story that I can't stomach explaining...just that it has a dead dog, a dead wife whose soul is in the dog's anus (via a voodoo priestess) and the husband/dog owner. Ummmm...yeah - think the worst.
Crackwhore Gigolo This is about a leper colony and a man-whore ---- ummm...just picture dicks falling off while up another guy's ass!!! HAHAHA....I got a chuckle out of that one!
Hurting Him This is a story about a guy who wanted revenge on another for stealing his girlfriend and then dumping her which caused her to commit suicide. It's the perfect revenge to keep this guy alive forever along with his wife and daughter, making him watch while he rapes and tortures all of them.
It's a short read and remember this is not for the WEAK STOMACH

Here is a response from the author over my Twitter post/review of his book..
Така, дами и господа, пригответе се за стряскаща доза гнусотии от един от най-хедонистичните съвременни хорър автори. Известен с безкомпромисните си описания, тук господин Уайт е във вихъра си. Пет разказа печелили второ място на Gross-Out съзтезанието на Световния хорър конвент в Тексас и един взел четвърто в периода от 2002 до 2008 г. Книжката е само трийсет и осем страници, но силно препоръчвам да си строите кофата за повръщане до леглото и да се приготвите за големи дози нервен смях, защото ви очакват щедри порции насилие, канибализъм, смрад, черва, лайна, хемороиди и прочие. Сега: - Иване, защо ги четеш тези патологии? - Ми, защото покрай цялата мазнотия, която се плиска овръз от родните литературни среди (говоря за хората, не за книгите), имам нужда да ми се припомни какво е наистина гнусно и притеснително, а после да го отхвърля с облекчен смях и да мога да продължа нататък. Но да се върнем към разказите: Morbid Obsesity – Извратен канибал се намира пред 200 килограмова жена-каучук, умряла с дебелите си бутове, все още зад главата. Когато започва угощението си го очаква изненада. Panty Pudding – Нетипичната обсесия на Джеймс към бельото на деветдесет и пет годишната проститутка, обслужвала няколко поколения от рода му го води до брутални крайности. Alive – Канибал работещ в клиника за аборти един ден установява, че бюфетът му не иска да си остане мъртъв. Felching The Worm – Влюбен съпруг е изправен пред задачата да изсмуче душата на жена си от задника на умрялото си куче. Мноооого описателно, както всичко до тук. Gigolo Crackhore – Просто един работен ден на мъжка проститутка наркоман в лагер за прокажени. Тук авторът е достигнал някакъв антипод на съвършенство. Hurting Him – Отмъщението се сервира студено. Също така се сервира с хаитянска зомби отвара за безсмъртие и невероятна изобретателност. Чел съм много разкази за наказание, даже съм писал няколко, но тук... тук говорим за съвсем друг калибър направо.
Не съм сигурен, че някой трябва да започне познанството си с автора точно с тази книга. Даже не съм сигурен, че 99% от хората трябва да я четат. Тук няма никакви литературни претенции, разказите са писани, за да се четат пред публика и да успеят да я отвратят и разсмеят в рамките на 5-6 минути. Съответно звездичките се мерят с друг уред. Само това. Консумирайте на ваша отговорност. А, и някой ако ми каже пак, че в Лазарус прекаляваме, ще му я натъпча тази книжка в хранопровода.
WARNING: Gross Content You want some of this; Syphilis? It's drippin' from every orifice. Lap it up. Stick it Deep. I can take 2 pricks without a peep. My di*k's so sick it spits and weeps. Come suck it, girl. Get all it weeps. The boils on my penis do lubricate. Let me sniff on your panties while I masturbate. The pus from your pu**y, just exploded in my face. I lick it slow. This is not a race. It looks just like that cottage cheese. Bend over. I want seconds please!~

Sloppy Second was a recommendation from my girl Carol, I have decided to create a a new shelf for all the books recommended from her called Carols-Shelf-O-Horror. This book is a bunch of stories that are White's entries over the years at the World Horror Convention in the Gross-Out Contest.
The rest of my review is going to be done as a spoiler because I'm going to be using gifs and if you have a weak stomach you may not want to see them.
Wrath James White is quickly climbing the hard-core horror ladder. With just a scant few books out (and most of them out-of-print or hard-to-find), he is already placed alongside the ranks of Edward Lee and Monica J. O'Rourke. Now, Skullvines Press has just released "Sloppy Seconds," a collection of White's darkest and grossest stories that are sure to move him up another rung. Every year at the World Horror Convention, the annual gross-out competition takes place. Writers, both new and established, read short works designed to test the gag reflex of those in attendance. It is there that White received his first bit of attention with his shocking entrees. "Sloppy Seconds" is a collection of all those stories and one bonus tale. At just a scant thirty-eight pages (including two introductions), one may question if the book is worth the investment. Each story is just a few pages (most were designed to be read out loud in five minutes), but they pack a punch that most novels lack. This book is a prime example of quality over quantity. For those whose taste lean to the extreme and gruesome, "Sloppy Seconds" is an essential purchase. Just be warned, the six stories contained within hold extremely graphic descriptions of rape, cannibalism, necrophilia, and all other manner of nastiest. If you are not already familiar with Wrath James White, you will be soon. In addition to this chapbook, he has a novels coming out from Apex Books and Cargo Cult Press. If that is not enough, Leisure will be publishing his mass-market debut at the end of this year. For the White virgins, "Sloppy Seconds" is an excellent sample and introduction to the nasty and gory world of Wrath (pun intended). Those already dedicated, will love this collection of impossible-to-find nuggets of grossness.
These stories are oozing with putrescent streaming boils of viscous bloody mucus and brain snot…but, in a good way…if that is even possible.
These super short (and super gross) stories were Wrath James Whites entries in the Gross-Out Contest at the World Horror Convention over a period of several years. How he did not win first place with some of these ubersick shorts I do not know. He came in second, a lot. If these are second place gross then I am not sure I could stomach the first place entries. These stories are not for the faint of heart. At times I couldn’t figure out if I wanted to laugh or puke, but isn’t that kind of the point?
This books is definitely not for the faint of heart or those with weak stomachs. If you are a fan of Wrath, however, it is a must read.
It really is a wonder how he only managed second place with most of these World Horror Convention Gross-Out entries. Their intensity is top-notch with some of the most disturbing images ever put on paper.
Although all of the stories are excellent, the bonus story, "Hurting Him," was definitely saving the best for last.
Get on Luas at The Point. Open book and begin to read. Fellow passenger reads over my shoulder. I'm pinned down by six commuters and arrested at Abbey Street.
A completely fictitious tale, but it's entirely plausible. Read with caution, but also a little awe at how Wrath only ever got second place in a gross-out competition with these tales.
I read Hurting Him about 5 years ago, and that is by far the most disturbing thing I have ever read in my life. I can still recall some of the images written in that story
Ето такива книги трябва да се пишат и издават, че и да се превеждат на български даже. Тъкмо народа дето се муси на хорър да прочете веднъж завинаги какви ги творят колегите на запад и да обръгне на извращения.
