Nightface: Revamped for 2025!

In anticipation of the release of Nightface II, the first of the series is back with a new look. A dayface, if you will. For those who purchased the original ebook, simply removing the download will refresh the title entirely, so the new edition is yours already!

Available now on Amazon

He could not remember a thing, who he was or where he came from.

Flashes come, like distant lightning. A song, an abandoned house of isolated opulence, and visions of the undead… Then he meets a girl, the only person who recognizes him, her body marked with hundreds of scars. Gunnar, a new breed of warlock, isn’t sure if the police want him after finding his landlord’s body but he runs anyway. Led to the old house on Black River Road his repressed memories become clearer and more disturbing. Memories of blood, vampires, and the one who forced this dark world upon him. Worst of all, he remembers how easily he embraced that darkness.

Nightface: A return to violent vampire fiction.

This is a different take on creatures of the night, refreshing, and anyone who loves the sub-genre will find it a very good read. – Nancy Kilpatrick, author of Wild Hunt and Child of the Night

Author of the Pray Lied Eve series of short horror

Out now: Pray Lied Eve 3 – Macabre tales of alienation, terror, and the supernatural…

Take a seat in a darkened theatre for Wormwoods Final Cut, then cast a wary glance at the scarecrow Staked in the fallow field. Gaze across strange shores, All White and Jagged, and too far away from the safety of a library holding Grave Marginalia. Listen close for the Fading Applause in Quintland before Checking Out of the abandoned hotel rotting back into the ground, then stumble through city streets to avoid the Crocodile Rot.

Buy from Amazon in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle

Horror, weird tales, quiet stories of the dread… these seven stories serve as a following to the first three

dark offerings of the Pray Lied Eve series. This third installment is dense, and as with the previous collections, we delve into realms, perhaps best left undisturbed. Oddities, hauntings, revenge, torment; realms best not trod alone, so Pray Lied Eve can guide you past dark corners.
