If you enjoy your horror dipped in buckets of blood and sprinkled with generous amounts of blasphemy, then you've come to the right place!
Blood and Blasphemy is a collection of over thirty of the most sacrilegious horror stories ever written. Within these irreverent pages, you will encounter a priest that keeps his deformed spawn chained in a root cellar, a convent where a poisonous species of salamander is worshiped, a demonic altar boy, possessed religious relics that kill, blood-drinking clergymen, a Son of God who feeds on sin, an unsuspecting couple who run afoul of religious lunatics in a small town, the divine (and deadly) turd of Christ, and other terrifying tales guaranteed to make church ladies faint and nuns clutch their rosaries.

Although I published three stories in this anthology, I must admit that there are more than a few I like better than my own. A clear case of blasphemy envy if ever there one. They are the Cherub, Vow of Obedience, and, of course, Holy Shit (clever). I think its great that we live in a country where we are free to push the envelope. if this were Russia, Putin would have sent all of us to the Siberian Gulag for a good scolding and reeducation.

To their ultimate horror, they had physically transformed into dung beetles, and instinctively knew they were doomed to wander the earth, for all eternity, eating shit.
Just like any short story collection, some are great and some are not so great. Some made me giggle, some went over my head I think and others left me 😳 I had fun here anyway
Spirits, angels, devils, serial killers, aliens, God, Jesus, and literal holy shit. A little something for everyone and the final story had me in stitches.
