About the author

The Accidental Poet:

Xtina Marie is an avid horror and fiction genre reader, who became a blogger; who became a published poet; who became an editor; who now is a podcaster and an aspiring novelist—and why not? People love her words. Her first book of poetry: Dark Musings has received outstanding reviews. It is likely she was born to this calling. Writing elaborate twisted tales, to entertain her classmates in middle school, would later lead Xtina to use her poetry writing as a private emotional outlet in adult life—words she was hesitant to share publicly—but the more she shared; the more accolades her writing received. Light Musings is just about ready for publication and her first novel: Desiree is well under way.

"The Devil's Doorbell 2" Compiled by Xtina Marie

I received this anthology of tales from @xtinamarie4031 in exchange for an honest review. The stories included inside are all of the occult nature and there are quite a few that are downright spine tingling! If you're one of those that are saddened the creepiness of Halloween is gone, this would be the book for you! There's no shortage of carnage, trickery, or pentagrams inside these stories. "Room for Two" by Matthew Clarke, "Swallow the Moon" by Morgan Elektra, "The Victim" by Sam Claussen, and "The Preacher Man" by B.M. Tolkovsky were all stories that I really enjoyed from this collection. @xtinamarie4031 is always so kind and amazing to work with and I always greatly appreciate being able to review for the HellBound family. 3.5 🌟
