The Dead Effect
They possess no pulse, nor a heartbeat. Their lungs have long since discarded the need to regulate oxygen. Logical thought escapes them, as does such common emotional states as happiness, sadness, or depression. The age-old weaknesses of man, such as lust, greed, or envy, no longer apply.

Yet they walk. They desire. They pursue... relentlessly. They hunger... insatiably... infinitely.

Spawned by a deadly, mysterious plague that ravaged the earth’s population seemingly overnight, the reanimated dead soon dominated the landscape, relegating those unfortunate enough to be labeled ‘survivor’ to permanent ‘prey’ status.

Enter, if you dare, a merciless, gore-drenched realm where walking cadaver’s rule, while the living have fallen to the lowest rung on the planetary food chain.

Read for yourselves the grisly yet strangely enticing elements that make up ‘The DEAD Effect’….

The Dogs of Holly Warren
The qualities that make up heroes and villains are never quite politically universal. To the average Capitan of industry, anyone who threatens his or her foundation of heroic financial security probably doesn’t fall within the category of benevolent protagonist. On the other hand, some people have managed to boil the concept of evil antagonist down to anyone who believes that ketchup packets are a major food group on the lunch menu for underprivileged school children.

For Jane, there are more Beasts to battle than those in the Forest of Souls. Now, she must unlock the secrets of her deepest powers to prove her loyalty and save her friends. But is the key to her magic hidden in the dark chambers or encased in the hearts of those she loves? Perhaps there’s more power in friendship than she’s ever imagined…and more danger.

Muddied Waters
April showers’ are supposed to bring spring blooms. In mid-western Ontario, they bring washed-out roads, a flood of visitors, and a body floating in a submerged back pasture.

Midnight Gallery
I do. I love the feeling of a cold chill creeping up my spine as I sit in a dark theater watching a good horror film. I still sit around campfires with friends while we tell ghost stories, but for sheer fun, nothing beats curling up in my recliner and turning the pages of a suspenseful novel or short story collection.

Books are the great passion of my life. Written words have opened my mind to countless new worlds. Sometimes these are bright and sunny, but other times they are dark and menacing, filled with monstrous fiends waiting in the shadows for their prey.

Sometimes they triumph over their intended victims, other times they don’t. For me it’s this awful uncertainty that gives good horror its compelling edge. Like real life, one never knows from one crisis to the next whether the forces of good or evil will carry the day.
