Eleventh Day of Creepfest



On the Eleventh Day of Creepfest, My True Love Gave To Me



Eleven Vampires Lunching
Ten Trolls a Trolling
Nine Ghouls a Haunting
Eight Witches Brewing
Seven Psychos Slashing
Six Demon Soldiers
Five Creepy Dolls!
Four Werewolves Howling
Three French Fried Eyeballs
Two Corpses Walking
And a Zombie Hanging From A Christmas Tree






It has been a busy and stressful week. I missed my last 2 posts, but I still have several contests going. There is still time to win an autographed copy, (my autograph) of Satan’s Toybox: Demonic Dolls and also one of Satan’s Toybox: Toy Soldiers. (When it comes out.) If you do win and don’t feel comfortable giving out an address to have the book mailed to, you can opt to receive the e-book instead, but since I don’t have kindlegraph, it will not be autographed. Click on the links to enter each one.






I am also giving away 5 copies of The Massacre Before Christmas and Other Cryptmas Tales and a $15.00 Amazon Gift Card. Rules are here.

Now, a short story.

Believe


by Lisa McCourt Hollar

"Contrary to popular belief, angels come in all shapes and sizes, with all kinds of wings."

The words echoed in my head, over and over as I fell. Tia's voice had always been like music. Now it sung to me like a choir of angels and I laughed...or would have if I wasn't currently screaming on my way to the hard concrete below.

My plummet down the rabbit hole came as a result of my being overly curious. I just had to follow Linda and find out what she was up to. The resulting confrontation had resulted in my being thrown from the top of Graystone Manor.

"It seems curiosity does kill the cat."

This voice was deep, cutting through my thoughts like a serrated knife. I recognized Lucus, Linda's lover. How long was this free fall going to take and was it going to be subject to every weirdo I had met, since discovering Jayne was alive?

My best friend. A vampire! And me, a Spirit Glider. At least that is what Tia said. And her request for my assistance to help protect this strange world that connected to the real world had led me to Graystone Manor.

But I was just a human. I can't protect anyone. Sage was wrong. I couldn't be a Glider.

"Sage, believe."

Tia's voice broke my paralysis. What she said was impossible. But so was what she was. So maybe I could...

And just like that I stopped falling...and I flew.

Word Count: 250

And speaking of Creepy Dolls! If you haven't yet read the anthology, Satan's Toybox: Demonic Dolls, you can read about it here. Then come back here and leave a comment in the section below. I will be giving out one autographed copy of Satan's Toybox: Demonic Dolls and will choose the winner from those that comment. I will announce the winner at the end of the Creepfest. You have to be willing to provide a mailing address. Don't worry, I won't give it out to anyone.

And check back tomorrow. I will be posting about the next anthology, Satan's Toybox: Toy Soldiers and giving you an opportunity to win an autographed copy of that book as well.I have to tell you, I am excited about this one. There are a lot of amazing authors inside this one. Many of the authors from Demonic Dolls return with more horrifying tales, but there are new authors as well. I will be posting excerpts so you can see what is inside and telling you where else you can find these fantastic story tellers! So make sure you check back. Also, be sure to click here or at the top of the page that says Creepfest. There are two other contests there that I am running all week. You will have a chance to win a copy of my Christmas Collection and, or a $15.00 Amazon Gift Card.
