“Damanda knows how to tell a fantastic story.”—Elias Witherow, author of The Black Farm

Step into the eerie shadowlands of Marcus Damanda, beloved contributor to The NoSleep Podcast, in his latest collection of terrifying tales.

A wealthy man attempts to escape a global plague by hiding in an underground city. Jolly old Saint Nick delivers an unexpected and terrifying present. A loner endures a curse that causes his eyes to bleed. A jealous actor plans for fiery revenge on stage. A woman investigates the urban legend of the murderous “Johnny Blackjack.”

Don’t get too comfortable, for as you immerse yourself in these and other tales, you might just find yourself becoming the newest addition to the grim gallery of Murdered Darlings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just read it!
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2023
As a long-time reader of Damanda works, I was eager to dive into this book. It surpassed my expectations! His unique blend of horror and humor, damnation and redemption, keep the reader engaged and never betrayed. His Poe tribute story, which leads the collection, is masterful, fresh and exciting even if you are already familiar with Poe’s version. All the stories deliver, and you’ll be left with an impossible blend of warm fuzzy feelings and creepy stirrings in the dark part of your hindbrain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another amazing collection!
Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2023
Damanda has done it again with another amazing collection of stories. I had heard all of them on the NoSleep podcast and I loved being able to take a peek behind the curtain through his author's notes. If you are a fan of creepy horror stories, I highly recommend this collection. There is a story for every type of horror fan. Though I am quite partial to his 1000 ghost stories, The Stowaway is amazing!
