About the author

Liley Cruz

3 books24 followers
Liley Cruz is an indie author/slasher junkie from the East Coast. Black & Pink are her favorite colors and she's obsessed with writing (why choose?) stories with multiple love interests much like in her book Caught In Between. She also very much enjoys chatting with the women of her book club on a daily basis—they keep her sane. Thank goodness!

Halloween and Christmas are her favorite holidays. She also enjoys rainy gray days where you can probably find her somewhere under a hoard of blankets and pillows reading a dark reverse harem while wishing she could jump right into the story itself and live as the MC.

Nope… just nope. I love a good splatterpunk horror with the best of them and my violence meter is high on the tolerance threshold, but what I can’t have is violence and smut for the sake of it with no thought out or relevant plot. When this happens it just becomes an overwhelming deluge of violence that leaves you desensitised to it all and thus loses its impact. Added to that that none of the stories truly ‘ended’ was a big downfall and left me crazy frustrated. Meh… not for me!

Hell Night: A Dark & Bloody Anthology
Raw Tendencies - Nikki Winters
Night Stalker - M. Reeds
Purge: The Hunting Ground -Liley Cruz
Authours: @authornikkiwinters @authormreeds @authorlileycruz

"They shall reap what they sow."
"There is nowhere to hide from him."
"There will be hell to pay."

This anthology consists of three stories, all in the same setting and character overlap. Ever you like dark and bloody romances, this anthology is for you but once again heed the author's warnings.

Wow, Raw Tendencies was like watching a very violent horror movie from start to finish. Kainan St. Clair is done holding his demons back; it's time to unleash his true self upon the people of Devil’s Gate Fairgrounds. Every Halloween, he unleashes the demons within, but this year he’s met his match.

Night Stalker:
Macie and her whole family move to Devi’s Gate, where she becomes the new student at Devil’s Gate Middle school where she meets Mr. Graham who will change her life forever. Her nightmare starts at Devil’s Gate Fairgrounds, but that is only the start for Macie.
Purge: The Hunting Ground
Reagan has nothing left to live for, so this revenge will be sweet as she will do anything to get it. When the three masked men start hunting her will she be able to run away, or will she get caught in the games they play?


I looked forward to more of these stories in the future.

Hell Night: a dark bloody anthology, is a compilation of three authors stories all centered in the same town and holy hell is it a ride!!! This book is most definitely not for the faint of heart, so proceed with cautions if you’re not a fan of the dark, the crazies that reign in the shadows and all things taboo. If however, those are the things you love most—then read on my friend as this is a story for you. 😈

Raw Tendencies by Nikki Winters comes out swinging as Winters doesn’t mess around!! Lets just say the Devil came out to play at the annual Devil's Gate Hell Night Festival one Halloween night and boy did he have some fun! What’s a mad man with a love for blood and all things sadistic supposed to do at a carnival at night when the voices tell him to have a little fun? Why…paint the town red and decorate with his enemies that’s what! If you’re a fan of serial killers and all things dark, bloody, and messy then you definitely MUST read this one! I cannot wait for the full version coming later this year!!!

Night Stalker by M. Reeds is a dark and twisted taboo/age gap romance full of questionable goodness that will take you down a dark and twisted road of kidnapping, asphyxiation and CNC but dang if you can’t look away!!! This story follows a young girl named Macie and the one Halloween night that changed her life forever. When the things that go bump in the night set their sights on a young teenage girl and whisk her away, some may say it’s abduction, but others may see it as saving…

Purge the Hunting Ground by Liley Cruz is a thrilling reverse harem full of all the delicious things only the twisted can appreciate: carnage, terror, bloodlust, vengeance and mayhem. This story is the final story of the Devils Gate massacre and was absolutely amazing! Following the story of one of the lucky few that survived that fateful night ten years ago, this story will lead you on a bloodthirsty chase that is utterly captivating! If psychotic alphas and heroines with a taste for blood and pain are your thing—this is the one for you!

Overall, if you’re a fan of the dark and dirty filthy smut and the psychos that rule that darkness—this is one for you! Full of murder, mayhem, primal play and all things dark and kinky, this is a book for those that love all things deliciously dark. I loved how each story interlaid over the other and how they all connected in a dark and demented world with pure utter perfection! A definite must read! Just be sure to check the triggers first. ;)

This anthology is a collection of three stories that are mysteriously linked to each other.

All three stories are referring to the Devil's Gate Fairgrounds massacre. This Massacre happened years ago and ended with many people dead. Or maybe I should say butchered. Because they were not just killed 🤢

In the first story we see the pov of the psycho killer. The one who started the whole massacre. He has some strange voices in his head that encourage him to act in such a violent way. His behaviour will make you uncomfortable. I mean..it made me uncomfortable and trust me, I've read some ugly shit.

This man literally plans huntings often just to calm his demons. And no I don't talk about fucking deer or something. You guessed it. It's humans that he hunts. And he bloody slays them. Making them ground meat or something and then turning their bones into dust. I'm gonna puke 🤢

While he does all this he meets a girl. He immediately becomes obsessed with her and ruts her like a wild animal while she's on her period. Like we didn't have enough blood already 👀. *Sigh*

The second and third story are for two sisters. One happened to be in the fairground the night of the massacre but she survived only to be kidnapped by her teacher who now holds her hostage. 🙄

The other sister is nothing like her. She's a dark bitch who enjoys degradation and pain so when she also gets kidnapped by three men this time, she doesn't bat an eye. If these fuckers are going to fuck her.. she's gonna fuck them back. And boy.. does she 👀

My favourite stories were the first and the third. The first because of all this batshit crazy stuff that it had and the last because of the intensity that the sex had. What can I say..if you offer me one dick or three..bitch I'm gonna go with the three. 🤷🏻‍♀️

These short stories will be continued and eventually have their own books. In this anthology you just have a first taste.

Guys please..PLEASE for fucks sake read the triggers if you decide to read this. This anthology is NO joke. There will be moments were you will be asking yourselves "what the fuck am I reading?". Yes this thing is that dark.

Did I like this book in the end? *Sighs in kink*
YES. 🙈

Macie moves to Devils Gate in 2010 and starts 8th grade at a new school. This is where she meets Mr. Graham (Emmett). On the night of the fair, everything changes for Macie.

Emmett takes her, keeps her locked up for 10 years and now all she knows is him.

Emmett is HOT!!! He can hold me captive any time 😉😉

One Halloween night Kainan let his monster come out to play. But that night didn’t only change his life but others as well.. all three stories are interconnected and show the aftermath of that fateful night..

𝐑𝐚𝐰 𝐓𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬: @authornikkiwinters

Y’all the first couple chapters was like something out of a horror film. I wanted to cover my eyes but at the same time I just couldn’t stop reading. When Kainan first laid eyes on Red, he had to have her right there and then. I’m interested to see what their relationship will be like. During the last chapter when Kainan was “processing meat” I was like 😲.

𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐞𝐫 : @authormreeds

When Macie was taken that Halloween night, she had no clue if her family lived or not. But it’s been years now.. and one day she found herself picking the lock to where she was kept. The events after that were 🥵🥵 I’m curious to know what made him take her though? And will Macie stay or try to run?

𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 : @authorlileycruz

Reagan is determined to find out what happened to her sister all those years ago at Devil’s Gate Fairgrounds. But what started as a way to find information ended in a twisted game..

The spicy scene was so HOT. The way the suspense of what they would do next kept me on my toes making the experience that much better & the Primal play along WITH reverse harem has me like 😮‍💨

Hell Night is an anthology of incredibly twisted & wicked set of short stories. The titles are: Raw Tendencies by Nikki Winters, Night Stalker by M Reeds, & Purge: The Hunting Ground by Liley Cruz.

These stories are very dark, very gory, very twisted. But that’s just what I like!! Perfect for spooky season.. insanely dirty and spicy.. rating them all 4 stars. They were great stories, however… the second one, Night Stalker, I really wish was longer!! I loved that one the most!! The writing was a little wonky at times but for short stories, they definitely hit the mark!
