An apparently innocent gift becomes a source of terror when Siobhan’s husband begins to change. As disturbing visions draw her towards the mystery of a tiger’s eye necklace, she must uncover what has taken hold of Adam before she loses him.
Peter Williams

A Requiem For A Christmas Eve
Peter Williams - so good, we published him twice! His stories bring faith into conflict with forces determined to destroy it, from supernatural threats to a regime that has outlawed Christianity.
In Acolyte, a seminarian investigates a possible demonic summoning while a man with angelic powers struggles to reunite a young girl’s spirit with her body.
A Requiem for A Christmas Eve follows a priest preparing to celebrate one final, forbidden Mass in a ruined church. He expects to face the danger alone, until children begin to arrive.
Bob Canning
The Animal Lover
Bob is one of the nicest guys in horror and a pleasure to work with. An award-winning playwright and produced screenwriter, he spent fourteen and a half years as a staff writer at Walt Disney Studios. His writing credits also include contributions to George Lucas's Blockbusting: A Decade-by-Decade Survey of Timeless Movies Including Untold Secrets of Their Financial and Cultural Success.
Based on Lord Berners’ 1936 novella The Camel, The Animal Lover brings dark comedy and creeping terror to rural England. A vicar’s wife adopts a mysterious albino camel, but her new companion understands far more than it should. Think The Birds meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

James Abney is a screenwriter and line producer at D and J Productions. His work brings a filmmaker’s eye to horror, with Marionette taking readers into a secluded luxury resort where wealthy guests pay to hunt human prey.
