Old school horror fiction from the 70s and 80s.
It’s Saturday night in the suburbs, 1993. The witching hour is upon you.
As soon as the clock strikes twelve, you and your best friends take turns telling your scariest ghost stories. If this were any other Saturday, a meeting of the Midnight Companions would begin and end in one of your bedrooms. But tonight, your penchant for all things macabre leads you beneath the land of the living, into the eternal darkness of a crypt.
Listen to the dead. Do you hear their voices? For there are no better ghost stories than those told by actual ghosts. Hear the tale of a bride-to-be being stalked by a demon, of a poltergeist dwelling in the chimney, of metalheads taking their passions to deadly extremes, of a newlywed whose deceased ex-boyfriend lives in her basement.
Make yourself comfortable, dear companion, because in a crypt the witching hour never ends.
Enjoy five blood-curdling tales from Luke Flaherty’s Midnight Companions, including the novella The Kindling, presented for the first time in one collection. Evoking classic fiction from the heyday of supernatural horror, Midnight Companions is a collection that would sit proudly on your bookshelf beside your favorite mass-market paperbacks of the '70s and '80s.
