The Skipton Horrors: A Collection of Short Stories
Told through a succession of short stories, spanning countless centuries and lifetimes, 'The Skipton Horrors' explores the tainted relationship between an ancient demon named Baal and a witch held at their side named Sabina.
Murder, lust, witchcraft, treachery and love fester within these tales, and at their very heart lies a solemn truth: the meaning behind life's greatest trial—to find a reason for existing, to know free will.
From medieval times up to the present day, the sordid actions of Baal and Sabina come to light, invoking consequences that bear many plot twists and revelations. Based on an actual haunting the author experienced himself, this novel is intended to conclude 'The Skipton Haunting', though it can also be read as a stand-alone feature.
Once connected, never can a bond be broken...

Chilling Tales
I have thoroughly enjoyed this collection of horror stories with a common theme. The author brings chills to the stories whilst keeping each one interesting. I liked the changes from early time to modern day. An exciting read indeed.

Is it short stories or a novel?
This may be stories. It may be a novel. The first several stories seem very disjointed. As we move forward in history, the stories do become more cohesive. And I liked the later stories better.

This is my first time reading a story but Andrew John Bell but definitely not my last. I had cold chills while reading it but could not, and did not want to, put this book down.

Nice horror theme
Great selection of short stories which are linked together via characters and time. Historical used phrasings add to the plot.
