Two’s company. Three’s a dangerously good time.
This deliciously dark collection of stories is flying all the red flags – these men will hunt, stalk, and conquer their prey
And leave them begging for more.
Whether working together to claim their prize, or fighting to be the last man standing, it’s only when you find yourself trapped between them that you realize: there’s no way out.
Every time I receive a package from Eric J Guignard, I rip it open in eager anticipation of the next anthology of chills and thrills to come. This time, I received Fantasmagoriana, The Chapbook Spotlight in Eric J Guignard and some swag.
Hill House Gallery Presents: A Chapbook Spotlight On Popular Authors – Volume: Eric J Guignard
In Eric J Guignard’s Chapbook, he shares a creature feature novelette and an interview.
In the Last Days of the Gunslinger, John Amos we have the survivors of a small town, trapped on a clifftop, where the creatures cannot reach them. Seeing it’s a short read, I’ll only tell you that I was swept away with the humans when they are forced to leave their sanctuary. Cross your fingers and hope there is something left to run to.
Fantasmagoriana
First published in 1812, Fantasmagoriana has become one of the most seminal ghost-story anthologies of all time.
The Gothic Horror stories included in Fantasmagoriana Deluxe: A Combined Edition of Fantasmagiana And Tales Of The Dead are sure to entertain. They have a subtle, sneaky feeling of doom hovering over the pages. This is award winner Eric J Guignard’s eleventh anthology created by Ericc J Guignard.
I have been following Eric J Guignard for some time now, and he never fails to draw shivers up my spine, and having me checking those shadows hiding in the dark corners of my room. I make it a point to have the lights on, and never read his stories when I am alone…Never know what’s lurking around…
GOODREADS BLURB
First published in 1812, Fantasmagoriana has become one of the most seminal ghost-story anthologies of all time.
Originally collected as a French translation of eight German-language tales, Fantasmagoriana famously led to the creation of such works as the horror-classic novel Frankenstein, the short story “The Vampyre” (a progenitor to the fantasy vampire genre), the novella “Ernestus Berchtold; or, The Modern Oedipus,” the poem “Manfred,” and more.
In 1813, the anthology was partially translated into English as Tales of the Dead, excluding three of the original stories while adding in one new, and inspiring an even wider audience to delight in stories of the ghostly and macabre.
Now, for the first time, both Fantasmagoriana and Tales of the Dead have been combined with all stories into one English-language volume, in this beautifully presented showcase by Dark Moon Books!
Also included within are: • Original English translations by Anna Ziegelhof • Introduction by award-winning author Lisa Morton • Annotations by noted literary editor Leslie S. Klinger • Illustrations, biographies, reading list, and more!
Open yourself to Fantasmagoriana Deluxe, and to all that is weird, ghostly, and wonderous.
